OK- I'm sure this is going to end up in the top 10 dumbest question asked in the forum, but I have to do it. Normally, when I change tank water, I get the new...

Well, I would ask what kind of fish you have. Nevermind, I would imagine tropical since you mentioned a heater, although you did say room temp, so that could...
The only problem with letting it sit Is I usually have to put back about 3 and a half buckets full, I have 2 bucekt that I use, so it would be an all day afair...
You could heat a gallon or two of it on the stove, then add it back to remaining cold water. Mix it up good, then check the temperature. I'm really a rookie...
Congratulations on the "litter"! :-) It's always exciting. It does sound like a faulty thermostat and one I would not rely on personally. These are usually...
I guess it depends on the percentage you are changing. If it's small the tank's temperature won't sway too much, but if you're doing a 30% change you're best...
Heater in a bucket. I use a rubbermaid trashcan and a powerhead. When the water is up to temp, I connect the powerhead to a hose to fill my tanks. ... Well,...
I routinely top off my tanks with cold water, but I do try to get approximately the same temperature for water changes. For my salt water tank, I have a large...
Hi everyone, I have a new, very small (3/4 inch) fantail and I've noticed that for the past two days, her poop has been almost completely white. It's not...
White poop means he has internal parasites. Since the fish is still eating, begin feeding him a medicated fish food called Pepso, it's made for internal...
Not sure if anyone has replied about this or not, but letting tap water sit that contains chloramine will NOT be ok to add to a tank. You MUST treat for...

Hello all, So, I've been having big problems with my tank for months. I kind of guessed it was my tap water, and am buying a nice filter unit, but most people...
The API liquid kit is good to use, but I still can't believe the ammonia is that high! This is unusual for a cycling tank. Did you add the BioSpira before or...
I once collected my own driftwood I'll never do it again. A piece of stump from a local creek. I boiled it in salt water. It was big so I split it up. When I...
Hi Kevin, do you know what type of wood you are using in your tnak as all is not safe to use. I have driftwoood in all my tanks and never have a problem, you...
While I don't think the driftwood has brought in any disease organisms, the fact that it smells tells me it is not fully cured, and that there's still a bit of...
