my 8ft tank is ony 444L and i have two 1200LPH internal filters, i have good amount of fish in there and even with weekly water changes the filters get pretty dirty, the water stays clean tho.
-
just do it the simple way, read the box your filter came in and post the liters per hour rate. also mention the size of your tank.
-
Filtration: (444L tank filtered at 2400L/ph {used to be 3600L/ph}) Algae: 0 Algae eaters: 1 goldspot pleco (15cm) no chemical treatment tank no 2: Filtration: (250L tank filtered at 1700L/ph) Algae: 1 Algae eaters: 7 small bristlenose no chemical treatment tank no 3: Filtration: (180L tank filtered at 900L/ph) algae: 3.5 no algae eaters no chemical treatment

Does anyone have any info about "goldspot pecos"?, i bought one when i first started tropical fish this time last year. Didnt really think about him much when i bought him but now that hes grown up hes looks bloody awesome (about 10-15cm long). will post a pic asap
-
how long should tanks last if there braced etc?
-
might just be a common water spider (diamond back???????) they catch an air bubble when they go underwater (i.e crawl on something underwater) if the fish are small enough then they could be a snack but fish arnt exactly liquid so i dont know how the spider would eat them, spiders generally only eat insects becuase they have a nice fat liquid center.

theres almost no shrimp in nz only the natives
-
deep underground? i have a flashlight you can borrow once you start diging
-
what food are you feeding? are there any rocks in the tank and if so what are they
-
i use water from the ground aswell (bore) which is high in iron, my fish are fine with it.
-
are there any plants or is there an airstone in the tank? must have something to provide oxygen or have a current that disturbs the water
-
Wild ones (Like yours) could carry disease as they could have been anywhere and done anything before you got em, comercial ones are kept in a controlled enviroment i think, which is why they say "disease free" on the packet. try feeding your ones to one fish (guppy) every week for a few months and see if anything happens.

i'll be there
-
will need to move the angels
-
just becuase you found that info on the net doesnt mean its true, i had 2 silver sharks in my 8ft tank and they were happy, they grow very very slow so a 4ft tank is fine for a year or 2, i have one now in a 4foot tank and it is happy as, no jumping or anything like that and is very active
-
lemon juice works aswell
-
red jewels are calm fish
-
i gave up with the meds (used the same as yours) didnt do anything, tonic salt seems to have worked better but havnt gotten rid of it yet
-
seems fine, ph should be around 6-6.5
