Female Turtle Always Searching In Rocks?

By Aquaboy on Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 | 4 Comments

I have an aquarium with a male and female turtle, and they’ve grown to be at
least 5 times their size. I noticed the female turtle always searching the
floor (rocks) as if it were looking for something, or looking for a spot almost.
What does this mean? I’m afraid I might’ve washed out it’s eggs, or that
it’s looking for a place to lay eggs. Or is this nothing? Someone with experience?

White Mossy Stuff On My Betta’s Tank Rocks, Help!?

By Aquaboy on Friday, April 29th, 2011 | 1 Comment

A few weeks ago, I bought a fish tank off line, and it had had angel fish in it. I thoroughly cleaned the tank and filtered it for 2 1/2 days before loading my betta in. I bought a new filter sponge to because the other one was a total mass of angel fish poo. I put him in and a couple of days ago I noticed a like white mossy substance, like hair almost, floating attached to the rocks. I don’t know what it is and I’m very attached to my fish and want what is best for him. I’m thinking about replacing the rocks. My fish seems really active, and has his usual gutsy appetite. Please help me :(

When Will My Fish Stop Scraping His Body Against The Rocks?

By Aquaboy on Thursday, April 7th, 2011 | 5 Comments

I asked a question the other day about why he was doing this and I recieved some good answers with a solution to the problem.
Today I did a 30% water change and he is doing it even MORE now! And he only began doing this AFTER the first water change I have done since the tank was set up.
Could the problem potentially be in my water supply?
I use “Tetra Aqua AquaSafe” water treatment “neutralizes chlorines, and heavy metals. Enhances natural, protective slime coating of fish. ”
Also when I did the first water change about a week ago I replaced the filter. Was this too much change all at once?
There are a total of 6 fish in the tank and only one of my fish was doing it yesterday but since the water change earlier today, one of my other fish began doing it also.
Will it just take continued regular water changes for him to stop or should he have stopped after I cleaned the water??
I really want him to stop doing this soon he’s my favorite fishy I don’t want him to die. :(
