Bubbles that won’t pop on top of your tanks water. Do you have too much protein in your aquarium?

Bubbles that won’t pop on top of your aquarium water. Do you have too much protein in your aquarium?
@CanineGrowTime • 1 day ago
Jennie of Solid Gold Aquatics was a horrible fish keeper. The first thing was that she overfed her fish massively on low quality Saki fish food. They got obese and swim bladder. She then massively UNDER filtered her systems. I could always tell her systems were poorly filtered because the pools were always foamy which means high in nitrates.
I started off learning from her... and then found the RIGHT way for me. I've had some of mine for 5+ years no issues. My system stays at 0/0/0 year round due to lower stocking and high levels of green algae.

The addition of a surface skimmer to my aquarium made a huge difference.

My next video will be talking about the ultimate surface skimmer.

I had this happen to me one time. I had a lot of fish in the tank but didn’t think I had overstocked it and good air movement and filtration. I had apparently been over feeding. A good vac and water change and it cleared up.

The same happen when you try to keep floating plants and do not run air. You always need surface agitation.

[@MandyJane123700]

I found this out a couple weeks ago in my 300 gallon pond. I had allowed the floating plants to grow and cover the surface (water lettuce gets so big!) then we had a cold snap, so I turned off the bog in the evening and didn't turn it back on until later in the morning, and thought the plants would hold in the warmth, which they did, but I almost killed my favorite snail because there was no gas exchange for too many hours.

I have a goldfish and for few days I have bubbles I cleaned my filter and still are there

[@douggiles7647]

What if this is happening in a fairly low stocked tank? I know you said it shouldn't happen, but in my 29 gallon that is fairly moderately planted, with 4 juvenile otocinclus, 3 amano shrimp, 4 cherry shrimp, and a nerite (also maybe a bladder snail or 2 that I haven't caught yet). And I'm having a thin layer of tiny bubbles in a couple spots along the edges. The majority of bubbles pop almost instantly but a few seem to linger. I also inject co2, but low dose, like you my indicator never changes from blue to green. I am wondering if I'm just over analyzing things and it's just caused by the micro-bubbles of co2, which I know is a good possibility because I'm not seeing anything wrong when testing or any signs of distress from my animals.

my question, does a lot of rams horn snails in a tank give off a foul smell? i read a comment from a snail keeper who said it does. i have a lot of rams horns and the tank does have an unusual odor, so i did a 50% water change. the odor is still there, about a week later. just wondering. the snails do a great job of keeping the tank immaculate, and judging by the girth of my female guppies, i could be over feeding. i have to feed the snails anyway, they have eaten all the algae. its a 20L tank with lots of plants, air, but no filtration. about 25 large female guppies. the water stays green despite water changes, and i use collected rain water from a rain barrel that has some algae growing in it. trying out the natural style tank. green water is supposed to be good?

[@anoxicfiltrationplenums]

To help get rid of the smell use activated carbon it works every time.

Dose anaerobic bacteria do better with hi temps ?

[@anoxicfiltrationplenums]

It depends on what you consider to be high temperatures. There is an ideal range for anaerobic bacteria. If you're talking about our aquariums, that they are at the ideal temperature for all anaerobic bacteria. Anaerobic bacteria grow best in a climate that favors them without oxygen, and in a climate that is in the dark with not as much light as you would think. Those would be the ideal condition for anaerobic bacteria. So if your tank is anywhere between 60°, all the way up to 90° definitely you have ideal temperatures for anaerobic bacteria.
