I was ready to think that maybe the ammonia was high till you said that tested ok. Darn, just before I was reading somewhere, can't remember where though, and it did recommend goldfish have a higher pH. So, might be something at least to look into if all else fails. Keep us updated...I'm still so proud of those little ones Caper

It is, after the stress, you sit and watch your fishies and the stress goes away 8) If you have a test kit especially for ammonia you might want to keep on eye on that and if you see ammonia registering just do water changes to get it down. If power is out for sometime you might want to take the filter media and give it a swish around in some water that you've removed from the tank, ah say into a bucket that you use just for the fishies. Do a search and you'll see how others have handled power outages. But it sounds as if your fishies faired off pretty well just keep on eye out on the ammonia. Caper

Hi & welcome! :lol: :lol: Addictive, nah you just have MTS (mulitiple tank syndrome), okay so it IS a disease so to speak and has no cure :lol: :lol: :lol: Post some pics of your addiction, ahem, I mean fishies :bounce: Take care & have fun, Caper

Aquatopia quoted: What toxins? For the chlorine and such, wouldn't the chlorine remove take care of those things? I have hang on the back filters and the cartridges come with the carbon in them. A question for those who have used carbon and then stopped, could you see a difference in your tanks? Caper

They're in denial :lol: :lol: Caper

So, if medicating a tank would/should you even do test then?? Caper

Very nice Caper

Well, just have the heron's Christmas present ready and maybe he'll move on quickly Caper

These are pics of Speck who has since gone one to fishy heaven when I first bought him he had more white than black, beautiful dalmation who finally turned all black! Caper

I just watched the video AWESOME Few questions though: 1) Do you have a mixture of real and fake plants? 2) What is the plant floating on top? Does it move with the current? Do you have it there to cut down on the light? Does it interfer with feeding? 3) What substrate? 4) Did you buy or go to beach to get the awesome driftwood? Caper

Thanks Caryl Okay, no visible signs of injury or anything else on Sam, unless of course after awhile he develops the redness like he did before but so far nothing. Caper

:bounce: Awesome Caryl :bounce: So do they stay near the top of the pond alot??? I was going to ask the same thing as A-town, so just to be sure we are talking about the same plant :oops: it looks kind of like branches? Oh by the way, any more trouble with herons? Caper

Hi & welcome! Just a quick reminder put your location in so people will know where you are from. I hate, nope...feel sad, nope...LOVE to tell you that you have MTS (mutiple tank syndrome) for which there is no cure :bounce: :bounce: Post some pics sometime! Take care & have fun, Caper

Nice fishies Caper

Ok, Sam is doing the sitting on the bottom again. Any suggestions?? I just did a water change Tuesday. I don't get it, it isn't something he does all the time but I just can't figure out why. Beauty is just fine, it is just Sam doing this. Hmm, just read this in another thread posted by Phoenix: I wonder if it's possible that Sam is eating too many peas??? I can't honestly say if the sitting thing happens after "pea feeding day". Caper
