Hi All;
Extremely new to this forum... Didnt know there are so many experts here on goldfishes... I have a 3 feet tank. read in previous posts that a sucker will not clean up your tank. My walls of the tank is coated with a layer of slime, not algae... how do i go about removing that? it blurs the tank... And, if i put stones/ pebbles (gravel) in the tank, how big the size of gravel I should have? I refer small stomes that can let the fish gup into their mouth, and spit out... is it advisable?.. as i read in previous threads that its not wise as it chokes and result in death of fish... But small pebbles at the base (abt half inch of height) looks good. And how do we clean the poos trapped between the gravel? mine is a overhead filter... Need advise,.. thanks in advance..>>> Rgds; Puppies |

Sucker will not eat shit,but helps somewhat to clean your tank.A single pleco can easily keep a 4 ft tank free of algae.I dont know what you meant by slime on your tank,but getting a magnetic cleaner should do the job.

But small pebbles at the base (abt half inch of height) looks good. Advisable not to have any gravels,whether big or small.Difficult to clean, maintain and a breeding ground for parasites.Go for bare tank. QUOTE(Puppies @ Wed, 23 Feb 2005 10:11 am) And how do we clean the poos trapped between the gravel? mine is a overhead filter... Thats why you should go for a bare tank.Plenty of examples here: http://www.RafflesGold.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1470 |
