    New filter design

    Thanks BTW have you thought about a drain at the bottom of the K1 compartment to periodically flush and clean the K1 media? Of course you would need to be able to close off the return to do so.

    Super Red not Eating

    check your nitrAtes and waterhardness. aros will occassionaly fast, however the fin rot and previous swiming bladder warrants a bit of extra concern.
