Hi all, I just found this newsgroup.....my ten gallon tank has three
goldfish in it. No matter how many different chemicals I've tried, the
water gets murky and green after the second or third day of a water change.
I've tested the ph and so far that seems fine. I put a 20-40 gallon filter
in it, and the water is still lousy looking.
The fish are healthy and thriving, but for my own enjoyment, I would like
for them to be in clean, clear water.
Any input greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tispe
Tispe,
You are overstocked. Have you tested for Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrates? Goldfish
typically do better with 10 gallons per fish - this is because they are messy
and grow huge.
