Never ever whatsoever turn off aeration to your intensely green water.

After cleaning the airpump last evening, I didn't reconnect thinking it won't hurt. Afterall, I never see my fishes gasp for air. I don't even know if it is really necessary to aerate that tub.

Both fishes (a pair of Oranda that I have not shown anyone) died this morning.

Just leave the darn thing running at night no matter what!!! mad2.gif

Oh well... can buy new fishes....

err.. i think u mis-interpreted the paragraph..
let me try .. i think wat it means is about the efficiency about gill functions..
if u dump a heater in.. the gill will need to work harder to get the same amount of oxygen into the blood stream.

sheeesh mountain, i can't really decipher your post except for the following which makes sense laugh.gif

on second thoughts, how can the gills be able to differentiate how much harder to work to get the same amount of O2 into the blood stream? if that's the case we would not have O2 burn at all as the gills should know when to stop. tio bo?
