QUOTE(c0c0nut @ Sep 22 2007, 11:54 PM) get your new tank ready 1st....den cycle the water....for 2-3 days....put in tester fish (fish that die easily under bad water condition)...if the fish survive for half day....den put in your aro into the new tank.... A long informative explanation from an experience person. I'm agree with you c0c0. IMPORTANT ! if u want to put your aro in temporary tank....because you want to use the old position make sure to use back the water from your old tank....means...tank A is ori tank....tank B is new tank....tank C temp tank.... this is how you do it: collect the water from tank A and put into tank C. Tansfer fish to tank C and let it be there. If you want do not feed also can. Den remove tank A and move in tank B. To set up tank B put in anti-chlorine 1st den water. cycle water in the tank. before puting in the filter medium, use the water from tank A to wash it. after 2 days put in tester fish. after 8-10 hours fish still ok (if you scared leave for 1 day) den your are is ready to go into new home. Things to do when aro in new home: keep the lights on have some tank mate ready do not feed for 3-4 days add anti stress liquid make sure your water have enough air flow if your aro looks like mabuk mabuk swimming side ways tansfer back to tank C if all above do not work and ya aro kiok (touch wood) don blame me, but this works for me   It is a lot more easier to transfer the aro if your aro not too big (around 12 inch), I'm faced a little bit of difficulty to transfer my 18 inch RTG into new tank last time due to its size.

I heard that it is quite dangerous to use medicine to make the aro faint during transfer. Need to accuratelly measure the dose given to the aro. If not, can cause the aro faint forever.  |

My YT seems to be puffing a little... but the problems is his gills is opening and closing rapidly... it's like not enough oxygen or the water is bad...
I usually put azoo blackwater, aquaquard but nothing happens... His eating is fine, about 12 mealworms a day... Does anybody has an experience with this problem... |
