Sounds good

Ok! Doesn't seem like a long term issue because everything else with him is fine.

And then you’d introduce the others later?

Mm, ok. I’ve cling on him and he hasn’t been doing that weird seizure thing. It seemed like a ‘one time thing’,.. could it be him flaring at himself? I tried rinsing the old cartridges and could not get any black out. They also smelt bad and kelt the tank dirty.. I’ll go get the water tested...

Oh that’s close! But now that i’m seeing how expensive these are, it’s fine not to have one... but I did see an acrylic with a stand for $400.

Perfect! Well, in your case, the salt must’ve destressed him. The results should really help!

Have you medicated him before?

Have you looked online?

Hah, yes. I’ve been looking online and the ”earthquake proof” ones were $6,000 USD! How crazy! I would never pay that.

Yup. Certain fish can take different PH levels.. still seems high.

Do you feed it a lot/too much? I wouldve said it is NP but your Nitrate levels are fine.

Yup. Brand new Element ones. The old cartridges were pitch black..

I do not know.... would like a large tank though. Yup, Southern CA is known for their ‘quakes. 50+ gallon sounds nice.. Yes, in CA, we do restrict our tank sizes..

First, always test the water! Go to PetSmart with a sample of your water and they will test it for free, giving you an API test strip. Then decode it. Your water parameters will be very useful in this situation. Oh my! An 8 PH! That’s way too high! Add vinegar, 1ML per gallon. No more than 1...

Ok, do you know any that come with a stand? Some “earthquake proof” aquariums are ridiculously priced... What are the benefits of acrylic? Sorry if asking too much..

Sorry, is a little confusing, do you want the PH higher or lower?

Try not to overstock it...

Hi, I’ve been wanting to get a pleco and some other fish in a huge aquarium.., but here in Laguna Beach, our home sits on a small fault line and shakes occasionally. I would like to know if there is an aquarium (with a stand) that can withstand earthquakes well; or a solution to a normal...

He would move the Hillstream loach. If he did get a wavemaker, the betta would not be in the tank with it.

That is a lot of fish for one tank.... Almost overstocked. Move it somewhere else, but it’s your decision. I don’t think you’d want to give it up though... If you are so considering a stream, try a wavemaker in an aquarium. Get a couple other little guys for ’em.
