TheTwirler   10 #1 Posted July 18, 2006 My mums got a fish tank, its not very big probably about the size of a 30" Telly. There's an undergravel filter type thing what emits bubbles from the top of a long pipe near the surface of the water. There is also a normal filter/pump that sits on the top of the tank.  The tank is starting to fill up with small bubbles on the surface, its taking up about 3/4 of the surface currently. There is also a blue tetra on the top, not really doing a lot looking quite poorly.  I've never really dealt with fish before, what should i do?

davyboy   18 #2 Posted July 18, 2006 is it a tropical or cold water set up? does she ever do a water change on the tank? How many fish are there in the tank and how big are they? Does she ever clean the gravel or the filter? What sort of filter is on the top can you describe it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I would have.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
