    Why Goldfish?

    1) Love the reaction on the houseguest's face: "My,those are beautiful! What do you feed them? "Oh, the usual. You know, koi food, orange slices, peas, worms, banana, homemade gel food, brine shrimp, etc." 2) I never level my substrate after cleaning the tank. They do it for...

    Hey, I'm back...at least for now. You can also check koi dealers. Some dealers have an inside line on fancys. I got my Wakins from a koi dealer.

    Glue for Wood tank.

    It should cure at the recommended time and not be tacky or sticky. Try this thread. It's a bit long but maybe it'll help in some way:http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=136193

    Opinions & Reviews on Magnum HOT Filter

    The Magnums are great. They do a pretty good job as long as they are properly sized to the tank. They take to modifying well. I did have issues with the foam sleeve. If your water is really dirty the sleeve will clog fairly quickly. It gets real difficult to clean once the detritus gets...

    Temperature range for goldfish

    For some folks it will be nearly impossible to keep their tanks cool during the summer. A Koi dealer once told me probably the most important thing is to make sure the water is well oxygenated - it has good gas exchange. She said water loses oxygen significantly from about 81 degrees plus...

    Nice! They look great. I got (rescued) one of my Shubs at WallyMart and now he's the largest fish in the tank. The other Shub I got from a Koi dealer and she is Halloween colored. She has the same fin and tail as yours.

    Safe to use Super Glue?

    The saltwater guys have been using cyanoacrylate (super glue type) for years to attach corals. I'm using some now to build my underwater decorations because it's fast and not toxic when cured. Then I follow up with an epoxy. If you need strength to hold two large pieces together I would use an...
