Questions
I have a 40 gallon fountain. How long until you start seeing results after block is in water? How long does 1 treatment last after algae is gone?
- The block will gradually release by slowly dissolving. Typically, this is over a period of approximately 30 days but if the water is soft, it may be faster. This acts as a preventative measure so you want to clean the fountain out then add it to the fountain to keep algae from coming back.

I have two gold fish that live in a 55 gal tank. The water is clear, but brown starts to accumulate on the inside of the glass, and on the ornaments in the tank. I have been using a few different water treatments, the water is clear. I use a sponge tank scrapper to get it off of the glass, but the ornaments are all covered with brown. Is there a fish or something else that would clean that stuff up?
Can I use Algecide for fish tanks in his tank? There is a lot of algae growth on the rocks and on the side of the tank. Is there any other advice to help me remove it?
I have a 10 gallon fish tank and I have about ten fish (plattys,mollys and cat fish not algae eating) and I have algae all over my rocks. How do I get it off?
My neon tetra have developed a white growth in his mouth to the point that his entire mouth is full & he is unable to take in food. Another neon tetra has developed the growth as will & it is growing in size. The other one is bloated. I have tried a few different medications for bacteri and fungus, nothing is working. My 4 glo fish & 3 neon tetras have been in the treatment tank at Petsmart since 2/12/28 & the issues have not subsided. I am in desperate need of your help, please :(
My fish lived outside during the summer eating alge out of our pond. Now it's inside for the winter but it has developed a white growth on its forehead
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
Hello, I have a Beta fish. His tank keeps getting algae. I just cleaned it and purchased new rocks and now its back. Just wondering if I should get a new tank, or bleach his current tank. -Thanks
How often should I put Tetra dechlorinator into my 2.2 gallon fish tank with three guppies in it? I know the amount, I just need the best time in between please. Thank you!
Trying to treat betta for Popeye otherwise healthy happy and active. Moved from five to three gallon filtered heated tanks. Feed freeze dried blood worms, daphnia and bug bites by fluval. Also am changing some if not all water every few days. Treated with kanaplex several doses no real improvement. Switzed to metroplex in water treatment as I don't know how food treatment works or how to dose started four doses two days apart and there is some improvement to the eyes. Med is miconidazole.
Our tank has turned cloudy and green.. What will help this.
So I have 5 goldfish. And I have a 55-gallon tank. 2 of my goldfish are growing pimple-like things on their bodies. It's the color "pinkish". It's been 3 days and theirs eating habits are weird and irregular. What can I do to make the pimples go away
