    Just curious, are the heaters still working after year and a half?
    Any problems with them so far?
    I have to buy 3 heaters; one for 40G breeder and two for 2 x 20G standard.
    100W heater does the job for 20 gallons, but I am not really sure if I want to go with one 300W for the 40G breeder or with two 150W. My philosophy is, if one heater fails, I’ll have a little bit more time to prevent a disaster.

      I went with 2 150w orlushy heaters for my 40 gallon. Wish I had seen this video sooner! My thinking is if a heater life span is based on on/off cycles having 2 heaters=less on/off cycles, in theory.

      @TrafishAquatics  3 роки тому

      Yep you sure can, Ive done it in the past with no issues. Also goldfish are temperate and can be in all water temperatures but most prefer to keep them in room temp water so there's no need for the expense of a heater.

    Hey I recently put fish in my tank on may 20th it is currently may 30 and the day I put the instant bacteria starter I put the fish the next day, they are looking healthy right now just wanted to know why my tank is still kind of cloudy, I’m not going to due a water change until June 3rd which I was told to wait 14 days after adding bacteria, I tried Aqueon water clarifier, using the algae sponge on the tank, putting polyfil(on my hang on back)I have a 65 gallon btw, I have 3 goldfish and a mystery snail, and a sponge filter there is still many particles and it’s still cloudy I need help please. I keep it away from light outside I keep the fishtank light on all day except around 10:30pm

    • @TrafishAquatics
      @TrafishAquatics  3 роки тому +1

      Because the tank is new the bacteria needs to build up enough of itself to be able to break down the ammonia that is being produced by your fish, in order for the bacteria to do this it blooms into the water column and makes the water cloudy, this is completely normal and should not be a need for worry, this will clear up on its own once the bacteria reaches an equilibrium with the ammonia production.

    Question in your opinion does having to big of a airpump or to many bubbles coming out of sponge filter raise your ph. My ph is 7.4 out of tap and goes to 8.2 in tank. Curious what is your ph out of tap and ph in tank. I’m thinking I have to much oxygen to high of oxygen in tank and it’s raising my ph

    • @TrafishAquatics
      @TrafishAquatics  3 роки тому

      You may actually have some small amounts of CO2 in your tap water, CO2 can lower pH and as that gasses off your pH will rise

    Another question for you. I bought some aquarium sand at the pet store. It stays cloudy unless I put filter floss in the H.O.B. Then it clears right up. I have a Fluval 50 and a sponge filter going in a 40 breeder that isn’t over populated. No plants either. Do you think the filter is stirring the sand up all the time, or maybe the sand is junk? I appreciate any insight you may have.

    • @TrafishAquatics
      @TrafishAquatics  3 роки тому +1

      If the sand is very fine, the hob filter could tend to kick up the sand.

      Much like older appliances, They were definitely built stronger and made to last, newer models are made cheaper That way they're easier to produce and they'll make more money off of their products because people will be buying them more often, That's the unfortunate truth of the society we live in now.

      You could try adding a Siamese algae eater, They usually control hair algae is pretty well, If your tank isn't large enough for one of those you can spot treat with peroxide with a dosing syringe, No more than 1 ml per gallon

      That's unfortunate, sounds like it overheated before it died, a heater that size will overheat an aquarium that size very fast. to prevent runaway heaters I reccomend using a heater controller, this will manually turn the heater off before it has the chance to overheat your fish

      @@TrafishAquatics I have 6 common goldfish and 6 Rosy Reds
      3 of the gold fish are probably about a year old and 3 I have for about 3 months. It was interesting when introduced to the new tank the 2 groups of 3 stayed separate. The now have blended and the Rosy’s are dancing all over the tank 24/7. I think they like the flow of the canister filter. Within minutes of turning it on they were 100% more active. The SunSun is a beast for the price. I have 2 Sicce Whales on 2 different 55 gal tanks that I love. The SunSun was just a little more difficult to prime but I think the capacity was the way to go for these guys. I took a Nicrew light I had on a 29 gal that I think was just too bright and pancaked it on top of the 75 gal. It seems to be the perfect amount of light
