    when i first started there weren't the test kits around as much and my dad had kept fish as well i find your fish can tell you what is going on in the tank fish at the surface can mean not enough surface agitation, and polluted water sitting on the bottom, can mean their cold clamped fins water parameters out of whack\ there are other things that can cause these symptoms as well generally speaking if there is a problem i do a water change first
  12. livingart
    stop the frustration put another 4 fish in keep up the water changes wait another week then put in some more fish keep up the water changes observe fish at least daily any abnormal activity or look to the fish do a water change sit back and enjoy your tank i have an aqua one 980 set up from scratch, overstocked to the max as had no where else to house the fish fish were in an outside pond that heating failed on just water changes have kept it running

    you will need to grow fry on as david said while resultant fry may be visually red it doesn't necessarily mean that they will pass it on to the next generation but it will be the easiest way to do it without having heaps of pairs breeding
  19. livingart
    personally i have found breeding yellow to yellow over a few generations can lighten the yellow by breeding back to the normal colour then breeding those resultant animals can help to deepen the yellow if i can equate it to a painting set in a simple form blue and yellow make green if you remove the blue you are left with yellow putting a bit of the blue back in can make the yellow darker this will all be dependant on the way the gene for yellow is expressed

    can only make the gold strain stronger may also give you a deeper gold colour in the future
