I will try to get a hold of Mike (River11) and tell him to check the forum.

Thanks Mark I need all the advice I can get. Can't let it get to any of the ones I got at the swap!

You should consider switching to Prime or Amquel +. Very inexpensive to buy online and neutralizes chlorine, chloramines, ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites, plus detoxifies heavy metals. I use those exclusively in all my tanks.

Angel, I rely on water changes to maintain water stability. I do 50-60 % water changes every three days on the young angels. I don't even own a water test kit except for our swimming pool pH kit. I really believe large water changes versus even more frequent smaller ones are the way to go and the answer to most problems. Mike

Thanks I didn't know it neutralized all the things in the cycle. That's a good reason to try it.

Thanks Mike! I did water changes tonight in the tank with the angels I already had and the tank with the angels I got Sunday as well. Not taking chances. I did 50% in the tank with my remaining angels and fry but only changed 20% in the tank with the new ones though. Next time I'll do more.
