Ok so some of u may know I killed my fish by changing the ph

I am trying 2 look 2wards the future and learn form my mistakes... i would like 2 that all who were suportive...

In aprox 2 and a half weeks my bf is buying me new fish 4 my bday... now what do i need 2 do 2 the tank

Is taking out all the water enough??? Do i need 2 clean the filter and the gravel 2??? I mean it wasnt a disease or n e thing and once the ph is normal all is good again yeah???

Helpful advice would b great!

Sorry to hear that.
So tell us about the tank and how it's set up and your water parameters.
Is it cycled?
Did you remove the goldies soon after they died?

I have a AR 126... it has a filter containing a sponge, ceramic noodles, fine filter spone and carbon... it has an uptake tube in the corner and flows back in along the top... i have a light, gravel etc

I need 2 change all the water 2 get the params back 2 nomal i think i just want 2 know if i need 2 clean out the filter and the gravel and loose all that good bacteria in there...

Water params were good b4 i changed the pH... havent checked em sinc3e the fish died... dunno how long they were dead 4... ok at 11 at night and dead by 7 the next morning... my house mate got em out pretty quick after that 4 me.

N e ideas?

N e one????

Just to refresh - how long ago did your fish die & are you certain it was the pH??? (The cycle requires food to keep it going so there needs to be some source of ammonia in there if the tank is going to be left without fish for a period of time)
