Why is the water in my triop tank cloudy?
I saw something like a sea-monkey on TV yesterday what was it?
Yesterday ( I think) I was watching TV I think it was one of those home & gardens like show, and they were talking about a pet that comes in a pack just like the sea-monkeys, but these were big, they were almost thumb size I think, and you can feed them veggies, they looked like Tadpole Shrimps, But I think tadpole shrimps aren’t sold in packets….

cycling question….or-uncycling….?
alo everyone. yesterday i went to petsmart to get an aquaclear filter and i also bought bloodworms (frozen) since the dwarf puffers werent eating their brine shrimp. now i got home and they LOVED the worms. but the problem is, today, the power went out. so the filter didnt work, obviously, and the fish were swimming near the top of the sides. now, i hear that means they are bored, but they never did that until today; it think they were looking for oxygen. so i bouught a battery opperated air pump: good. so i went to feed them their worms, and i dropped like a hundred in there! =/ i got as most as i could out, but an hour later, they were still munching on them. ughh, so yeah, i’m figuring theyll die. but my question is, the guy at the fish store said to do a water change. if i do this, will that uncycle the tank? because onnce im done doing that, and the water is good again (not dirty with shrimp and worm remains) i want to get more dwarfs, but will i have to recycle it again or not???

New fish questions?
Okay, yesterday I got 3 scissortail rasboras. They are doing great. They were the only fish in a 55 gallon tank, perfect water conditions and a temperature of 75 degrees fahrenheit. I have an undergravel filter, plants, rocks, driftwood and gravel. Today I got 2 red platys and 1 pleco. We got the pleco algae wafers. I have a few feeding questions:
Can I feed both the platys and the rasboras tropical flakes, frozen peas and some iceberg lettuce (last two sparingly). Would the platys like brine shrimp like the rasboras?
Will the pleco be okay with the small fish as he gets older?
When should I start feeding the new fish?
Thank you so much!
