The tank I have has very very fine Silica sand

I have filter floss over the intake and it's always on there to prevent sand from getting into the impeller

I have the tetra ex 70 I believe and it has those very thin intake slits
Not quite as big as an Aquaclear intake

Hi there,
I'm going to get some Kuhli Loaches later tonight and I just had a couple quick questions

1. I want to put them with 6 gold zebra loaches in my 55g...are they ok to share a tank with the gold zebras? (they're really wild zebras...constantly swimming and boy are they fast!)

2. I was ...

Another quick question

Will Fish TB ever be able to be fully cured? I know the bent spine won't fix itself and all

But will the fish ever totally be rid of this illness? Even after meds etc?

Reason I'm asking is because guy at LFS yesterday said to throw 5 or 6 guppies in the tank as a test to ...

I'm gonna try the Kanamycin first and hopefully see some improvements

The cheapest UV sterilizer I saw in LFS was $200

Might have to look into that in a couple of months (funds are pretty tight and my contract at work is about to end...i'm not even sure if I'll have a job in about a month ...

Fish constipation?

I'm wondering if this could be the cause of this poor guys situation

Recently my one CL had a sunken side due to fish TB which has been cleared up and she is filling out quite nicely again...and her buddy fully recovered within about 3 days

I've been feeding them a high protein ...

Tay690

I don't what the problem is to catch?
Clean water?

All I did out of my normal regiment was to change the water on friday instead of sunday...same volume...same course of action

I don't know what could have happened to cause this...within' 2 days this has happened and yesterday they were fine ...

Normally I would laugh at this..but when I put my hand in the tank close to him...he swam upright for about 5 seconds...then started swimming sideways

now he ...
