<DIV id=post_message_73057>hi im pretty new to fish keeping... well i used to have a couple of goldfish when i was younger...
anyways...i have had my tank set up for about a month now... im pretty sure it has gone through the cycle process cause all the levels are pretty normal after getting pretty high
the problem i had was the water in my tank had a pinkish tint to it.... was wondering what it was?
weather it is harmful?
what can be done about it?
i do regular water changes bout 20%
i also have to fish in a quaratine tank with what seems to be ick... and i am treating them for that....so i dont know if it had anything to do with that
i ended up stripping the tank and washing everything... and added a little bit of aquarium salt to the tank... that water is now really clear and all the levels are still normal... as i keeped the filters going so i wouldnt lose any of the bacteria in them
so can anyone help me to figure out why the water had a pinkish tint to it?
any help would be appreciated just incase it comes back
thankyou</DIV>
