    going nuts

    hi everyone my tank has not come right , i have done everything that has been posted in reply to both my last posts, heres the situation where im at now, my last albino catfish is on its way to davie jones,s locker and my kissing gourami is hanging around the bottom under the heater mmmmmmm, near my wits end,idid have a case of white spot happen after i got it back to norm (well i thought ), but i got onto that pretty quick with spot off.. i have read through some other posts problems , there was one about itch and notice my fish do scratch themselves on the wood or stones ,, could that be a fish murderer (itch ) , if not has anyone got any more ideas, before i drain the tank and start again.. i would really like to save the gourami and am under presure to save it as it was a wedding gift from my local shop

  6. hi all i was given my tank about two and a half yrs ago by an old guy who had had enough of it, it was literally filthy and over grown.I did not realise how many fish were in there ,besides an eleven inch algae eater, (could some one remind me of its real name), and what was keeping it company , about 2 to 300 swords and frie popping out daily,ive worked it out that it is around 320 ltr,s.I kept about six and the algae eater died (could of been the move or the clean out i gave it).well getting to the present,, I have started to strike problems and i am learning, i never knew you had to put conditioner in the water , change the water so often, the problems i have struck are in another post in freshwater // fish dieing thanks to all that have helped me on that one ,i took some water in to get checked and everything was ok, now have contracted white spot or something similiar and have started treatment with spot off,so even though i have had the tank for over 2 yrs i am a beginner . QUESTIONS WHAT IS A GOOD PLANT CONDITIONER ( MOSSY STUFF STARTING TO GROW ON PLANTS AND BOG WOOD GREY/BLACK FURY LOOKING STUFF) HAGAN PRODUCTS PH TESTERS ETC, GOOD, BAD , BEST HOW MANY WATER CHANGES FOR SUCH A BIG TANK AND HOW OFTEN I HAVE 2 FILTER SYSTEMS 1ST A SECOND NATURE POWER WHISPER FILTER (DOUBLE ) THAT CLIPS TO THE BACK OF THE TANK THE 2ND IS A CANASTER TYPE ONE WHICH SITS BESIDE THE TANK/// WHICH WOULD YOU CLASS AS THE BETTER HOW OFTEN SHOULD CHARCOAL BE CHANGED AND IF THERE IS ANY OTHER HELPFUL HINTS OUT THERE PLEASE LET ME KNOW once again a big thank you to all the people that have helped me so far scotty
