Questions
What changes color? The yellow in the middle?
- Yes. the yellow would start turning blue if ammonia is present.

Ok I have a 55 gallon tank and I've always had small tanks recently I decided one 55 gallon is good enough and I have never had a master kit should I start there 1st
- I would absolutely start with an API master kit. Make sure you get the correct kit for your water type. They have a freshwater, saltwater, and pond test kit. Even experienced aquarists use the kit. It is worth every penny.

Can this be used to detect ammonia in dog urine? I want to use in my kennel.
- I wouldn't think so. It has to be immersed in water to detect ammonia in the water. I've tested this in pure ammonia just to make sure it does give an alert. If it could be activated by the presence of ammonia in the air, it would have turned color before I immersed it in the ammonia. However, if you collected the dog urine in a receptacle and placed the alert in that, I'm sure it would work.

I have recently used medication in my 50 gal freshwater fish tank with one 22 year old comet goldfish in it . the meds cured my fish but must have killed my beneficial Bacteria as now my established tank has been going through another nitrogen cycle. It's been four weeks now the ammonia us back to zero so is nitrite zero BUT my nitrates are now spiked about 80 and the water is cloudy. Did 2 partial water changes over the last 8 days. Will a UV sterilizer help ?? Please advise. Thanks Lina
Most people don’t have the money and space to run a quarantine tank. When introducing new fish (without visible ich spots) could I assume that there are ich tomites. Could I do an ich treatment and prevent a full outbreak. ( I have just been through an outbreak and lost all my fish.)
I recently bought a pearl arrowana fish what care should I take

Hello i have a fish tank 45l with 11 fishes in it (Shubunkin , opaline gourami , honey gourami , trichogaster etc) . i added the fish a week ago and tested the water and it was fine.today i see that 2 of my Scalars aren't eating like everyone else , so i tested the water . Everything was fine except for Nitrite levels that was 3.0 - 5.0 ppm. I changed 25 % of the water and added Easy Life Filter Medium and after some hours i tested again the water quality and it was the same I also added salt
Two of our freshwater fish are acting oddly in the water. We did lose a few last night, due to an ammonia spike. We noticed some pale-colored, wormlike flesh dropping from the front area (between the mouth and front fins); this black Guppy is “wobbling” around... We also have an orange Molly fish that has been staying on the bottom, not eating or moving much. Attached are pics, for your review. Can you please provide advice for these issues, we want to try our best to save them!
The fish has attacks of fast uncontrolled movement since we have it. Sometimes it hits itself on walls and objects. Lately it lays down on the floor on the side and rubs itself on objects. It got scratches all over and hurt his eye. It eats normally. No visible parasites, but seems something itches it on the skin. We bought Imagitarum Parasites Remedy, but hesitate to use it as some reviews say fish died of it. We also have shrimps and snails. Should we use the remedy?

Goldfish with swollen side. I read that it might be able to be treated with epsom salt. Did not want to do without checking on the accuracy first.
Dempsey’s fins are fraying and I cannot figure out why. All levels are normal, she is recovering from ammonia and ph induced stress, could this be a bacterial infection? Would melafix help her recover?
