I need more infermation on green spotted puffers

[~reefchik~]

go ahead and use them and show us your numbers

REMEMBER, shake the bottles of chemicals for 30 seconds each.

And once you get the chemicals and the water in the glass tubes...shake them too and wait 5 minutes.

If you need to put more than one chemical in the glass tubes..put the first chemical in with the tank water..put the cap on the glass tube..shake..then open it back up to put the second chemical in..shake and wait

Maybe I shouldn't say this, but each test is performed differently. Let her follow the instructions on the package, when and if she gets the regular test kits.

ok top feeders are trying to be bottume feeders why?

[J-P]

the fish food falls to the bottom and sometimes they follow that.

You're feeding standard flake food right?

yep thats what they get

I wouldn't worry about it. It is natural for the fish to pick flake food off the bottom of the tank.

pecoso died this morning 12 am im inclined to think is becuse of the power outages and the power going on and off on and off some times staying out for quit awhile

[J-P]

ohhh that will do it.

Without a pump running in a fully stocked tank they can die in a few hours. That happened to my Koi last year.

battery powered air stones are always nice to have, but running the filter is different.
