    Fishtanks

    I hate fishtanks. The tank I had for a year decided to crack and break, so my betta gets to live in his little cup until I can get a replacement. -___-

    We used to have a tiger oscar in a 55 gallon, that tank broke too lol but that was because it was 20+ years old. Our oscars always got hole in the head disease, no matter what we did.

    That's pretty much it exactly, it had never been dropped or anything, it must have been pretty flimsy if the water pressure cracked it.

    Re: Fishtanks

    thats because once they get it they become prone to getting it, and you
    have to keep water perameters at there very best always to keep them from getting it again....also depends on if you feed live food or not......
    most illnesses are from live food sources..................

    They never got live food and the water was always clean, so we just basically gave up on them.

    its not if its clear it depends on the levels like-nitrite,nitrate,alkalinity,pH, ammonia,chlorine....etc,...your water could look clear and still have problems,it could look a little dirty and still be fine!!!!!
