Hello, I am currently new to this forum,
I have had little luck with advice on this matter, so hear goes another try.
I am also fairly new to this hobby.
I currently have a 29G FOWLR system that has been set up for about 3 months.
I have 1 Diamond Goby, 2 Green Chromis, 1 Ocellaris clown, and 1 turbo snail.
30 lbs. of LR
SO my issue involves a recent water change.
I did not mix my own water considering i went out of town and the ammonia levels spiked, I had to act fast, so i did some research and found out ***** has a reliable product already made. : http://www.*****.com/product/11884/P...ean-Water.aspx
Heres where i made my mistake, I took out 5 gallons and instantly filled the pre made water into my aquarium. The salinity, SG, and temps were all even.
Then I noticed my fish would occasionally swim to the top and "pop" an air bubble.
now on another forum I was told i possibly filled the tank with too much water considering I have a Eclipse 3 Hood, and the filter puts oxygen into my tank (unless filled to high) so I then aerated the water with an airline that is optional for my power head.
Everything went back to normal but my clown still occasionally rises to the top and takes a gulp of air. hmm.
My ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, and Ph levels are also in check.
Any suggestions/ advice would be much appreciated thanks
