Another One Died

how about buying 4 buckets, pour some water into them, leave them out for 24 hours and add that to your tank???? chlorine will evaporate from them.


Jason, before owning your aquarium.. DIDNT YOU READ ANYTHING ABOUT MAINTAINING ONE?

" I dont think you should be selling aquarium supplies either with not knowing anything about aquariums.."
 
200 Gallons will be fine for a few months, I would suggest you do research on the Giant Gourami, they require 4-900 Gallons with heavy filtration, Nothing that Jebo sells is adept for that fish, Please do it a favor and find it a better home.

Are you speaking of the aquarium in your signature? The 130 gallon one?
If so, you may have bitten off more than you can chew. A bit of advice here...I only have 1 tank setup right now and it's a 29 gallon. I've spent quite a bit of money on setting it up and properly maintaining it. I've also done quite a bit of research and read plenty of information on this forum and others on how to properly care for aquarium and fish. I'm far from being a pro at aquaria, but from what you seem to be doing, you seem to be a novice.

Are you sure you're ready for a 130 gallon aquarium? Maybe start with a smaller tank and work your way up. If you cannot properly take care of a 130 gallon aquarium, you shouldn't get anything bigger.

can i change my water rite now without putting any chemical
wouldnt that be ok? any faucet water would be better than the water in the tank right? not trying to be sarcastic but is that kinda true???

I normally don't like to be mean, but that's a pretty stupid thing to say. Does your water contain chlorine, chloramines, or heavy metals? All of these are toxic to fish too. You need a water treater. I recommend and use Seachem's prime. In addition to neutralizing all of these things, it also detoxifies ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. It isn't a replacement to water changes, but it can help out a lot in emergency situations, especially in your case.

At the very least, get a water conditioner that takes care of these things. Get something at the very least for your water. Stress Coat, Prime, Amquel+NovAqua.

These are basic things that need to be addressed. Like buying a computer or a car, building a house, or any other thing, research is an important thing to do. We were all new to this once and I'm sure no one here minds lending a helping hand, but a little bit of reading and research can save you both money and headaches.

Minimum dosnt mean best, I have seen tons of gourami of all sizes shapes and colors, I do not need someonie to tell me about full grown gourami, I have kept all sorts for many many years, the way you treat this one is horrid, like someone said above start with somthing smaller and work your way up, and I said 4 yes 4 to 900 that means there is a range. I suggest you read some books on gourami especialy yours, It will not be happy in your tank imo.

I'm not generally a rude person but I've been following this thread for a while and I'm completely disgusted. Jason, do you realize what an uneducated illiterate idiot you sound like? Is it that much harder to put the "h" in that, it's one extra letter.
