woah i was on a vacation for 4 days i missed all the action here

the water i use for my daily wc is aged remember my post i have an empty tank below thats has its own overhead filter that i use for aging

and i was doing the daily water chge before they acted weird

theyre doing fine now the thing i missed was the heater it wasnt plugged properly
so i checked the parameters every day and it was the same parameters but i missed the temp

no need to argue about anything guys were all hear to learn from each other
id ont know a lot bout p's and i admit they are harder to take care of compared to my cichlids but im enjoying them and im enjoying mfk

Give me a break man! who is labeling as an expert?, just trying to help the man and doing 30% daily water changes in not the best for any fish.

I think if I am being to pedantic or rude to our phillipinean friend he must be capable enough for sure to let me know don't you think so?.

You're right, I did overreact. I probably took your words out of context and displaced some of my anger on you which should have been directed at other posters on another forum. I apologize.

I'm not speaking of anyone here but I get frustrated when somebody who has probably never even kept a certain species of fish declares themselves an expert on said fish. On another forum I reached the brink of a meltdown reading what can only be considered disinformation written by some extremely clueless people.
Once again, I apologize.

have you guys ever heard of sodium theophospate, prime, amquel, or similiar product? The reaction occurs on contact, stir to increase surface area. Takes out chlorine and chloramine instantly. All thats water aging stuff is old school. Get some prime and put fish in those aging tanks.

actually im using something similar to that
but its two products used as one that has great effects ive been using it for about a year now
let me check my stuff later

yeah I think i know the product your talking about. One is for dechlor, the other removes heavy metals from the water if I'm not mistaken.

 

[paopanlilio]

yup thats it

 

[Diogenes]

that should be more than adequate.
