What's Your Best Cleaning Method? (Seriously, This is Gross)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i just went through this whole thing trying to see a pic of the tank....
but nothing .....oh well

but thanks for the advice shared on cleaning tanks
 
Okay, sorry for my absence, not out of data this time Hendre Hendre , work experience is bloody exhausting and I can't be bothered scratching my butt at the end of the day, let alone conversate with people :eek:

So, no more using bleach and vinegar, I might stick with just straight bleach... Thanks guys. :)

I haven't cleaned the tank yet (as mentioned above I've been pooped) but do have some terrible pictures for y'all...

This tank has been sitting out in the rain for a while now, and still looks like that... Those poor goldfish. :(

thats it? its not bad at all, ive seen far more worse/dirtier tanks where i had to clean
it several times including several soaks and etc etc lol... thats a nice little tank though.

That's the worst I've ever seen a tank, and I hope to never see worse... The red film on everything is new to me, I've never seen it before and it's gross lol

I won't be using the filter, my hubby hates them lol it also has a hood it came with, and (I think) three t5 bulbs that have never even been turned on. Idk if they're any good though.

I think its a cute little tank, Miles (my betta) will be going in it once I've cleaned it up until I can get him a bigger one, then it will become a community. :)
 
I have an overhead filter for my betta and it works very well, i just have to clean the floss frequently

why he hating on the top filter lol its a nice additional next to a small hob.
if you have the one where you can open the top i like to put small gravel
and plant pothos on it. extra filtration on top and it looks nice but dont know
if itll thrive with a single betta in it. well have fun cleaning the tank lol...

Idk why he hates them he just doesn't like them; the 120ltr we swapped for this had one, as did our 5ft and 4ft but he pulled them out and replaced them with canisters and diy ones. The hood won't allow for a hob...

It won't be a single betta, I have a few tetras to put in it with him (have to play musical tanks to accommodate a pleco) and maybe my little stunted cae and kuhlli loaches depending on the bio load with Miles and the tetras.

Thanks... I'll have great fun with it :rolleyes:
