Fake food? What are you feeding your fish?

Lol. But don't make motorx1 feel bad for a mistake for using fake instead of flake. How can anyone feed Fake Food! LikeAGoldfish probaly meant it as a joke though. Anyway, flake food is dirting the tank, hmm? First there are 4 things u could do,

1. If your tank is under 30 gallons , and have the time, try and clean it every week with a siphon and clean water
2. Maybe get Waste Control Liquid
3. If you feed a lot of food to your goldfish, try and cut down. Vist the post for How Much Do I Feed? In this section of posts: Goldfish Food
4. Get a better filter. I reccomend Aquaclear Power Air Filter

or do all of these. Just a suggestion

I would clean up the gravel like Jasmin
said.
Try not to over feed your fish.I would feed then once
a day until your Aquarium clears up.

I agree with the 2 people above me smile.gif

Invest in a good filter system! Goldies create lots of waste that will make your ammonia, nitrates and nitrites levels high! No overstocking of goldies and no overfeeding too!

looks like his "L" key doesn't work , that's all LOL
Yes, get a good filter- and don't trust the pet store employees! (I don't know what size tank you have, but) If it says good enough for 5-10 gallons, DON"T BUY IT for your ten gallon, get the filter for the 20 gallon instead, extra power means extra hard work filtering out your nasty f(l)ake food smile.gif smile.gif
