7 pm....where the heck do you live?
as far as a w/c....mix your water in a clean bucket....make sure you have a small powerhead in there to keep it aerated and make sure the temp is the same as the dt too
let it mix for 24 hours
 
I live in chicago. School start from 8am-2:54pm
Then i have swim practice from 3pm~6pm. Then on the way home would take me one hour but i use all three of my transfer to go home. So i have to talk to petsmart from the closest train station which i get on which is about a 40 min there and back unless i take the bus. Probably be around 7 when i get to petsmart then i be home about 8ish. Usually i go the LFS that is really close to my house but they don't have food like that since is like a private LFS. I buy all my marine fishes from them since pet smarts doesn't sell marine fish but they sell the stuff for marine fish. Ya... i need a car... sigh if only my mom would agree to it already. My dad is supportive already for the car is just my mom doesn't want to pay the extra bill which i can understand but she never drives me to places beside drives me to school only. It makes me hard to get around places.

LOl...I thought you were talking about going today.....DOES sound like a lot of walking..YUCK....don't worry..you will be driving before you know it...then will hate it
have you called petsmart? do they have what you need? I have not been to one in a really long time, so I do not know what they sell for swf fish.....surprises me that a lfs does not sell frozen foods though
 
I am just checking their site at the moment. so far i see that have Omega One Freeze Dried Mysis Shrimp if that the one you were talking about. As for the cube I don't see any yet. I actually do believe they have frozen package food I remember seeing a fridge there when stuff in there. What does the cube package look like if you can get me an image that would be great! ;D I still browsing through the site. I going to give them a call in a bit though i don't really like talking to people on the phone.

Don;t feel dumb...LOL....I was not sure if you could see the pics....that's all LOL
If they do not have selcon....look for this......if they do not have that, look for vita-chem or zoecon
 
Ok thank you! I will keep my eyes out tomorrow. I need more pet stores around my house that are actually willing to put the effort in selling stuff that great for the fish.

PetSmart carries the frozen foods (in the frozen fish food freezer usually located by the fish display tanks), and they don't carry the vitamins.
 
So my first fish which i named amy showed sign of aggression. She is attacking my second fish aka etango. Amy was the fish that i show with white mouth can this be due to starvation or just dominate control? Should I shift the land scraping? I haven't had time to go petsmart yet simply because i have swim meet that last till 7 and my bus card expires at 8.

If you see them fighting sometimes turning the lights out will help.....if it is a fight over dominance I am not too sure aquascaping will help.....If it continues you may have to remove one
 
The lights were off since the whole night. Like they were fine yesterday. I saw amy just attacking etango like etango just swims away not fighting. Do i need more live rocks?
DO i need more rocks? Well i only have 5 lbs at the moment. Amy mouth is whiter now. Usually is normal but sometime it turns white but this is the second time seen it. ever since amy had ich she been aggressive.
