Re: Does tetra prefer fast water flow?
Lovely setup you've got there.
I've noticed a similar issue with my neon tetras - they've developed white growths around their mouths, which I'm concerned might be a viral disease that's been going around in the UK lately.
From what I've gathered, it's possible that this could be a fungal ...

Re: Does tetra prefer fast water flow?
Lovely tank, by the way. Those neon tetras of yours have some white growths on their mouths, which seems to be a viral disease that's going around in the UK.

Re: Does tetra prefer fast water flow?
I just got a new Fluval filter and toned down the flow setting so my plants aren't swaying all over the place. I've also tweaked the valve to get some bubbles going. My tetras seem pretty content, but I've noticed they tend to drift a bit if they stop swimming for a sec. Is this actually a good ...

Re: A new filter for better discussion organization
The cloudy water itself isn't the main issue, it's what's happening behind the scenes that could be problematic.

Re: A new filter for better discussion organization
I have very different filters now. The old CF1 can't be taken apart, so I was wondering if I can squeeze the water from the cartridges into the new filter or the tank water. This way, I can try to save some of the beneficial bacteria.

A new filter for better discussion organization
I'm having some issues with my new filter. I had to replace my old one because it just stopped working. I got a Fluval U1 and now the water's all cloudy. I'm worried this is gonna harm my fish.
