please excuse my stupidity

I'm taking care of cheo's fish, and today i changed the tanks water and these little bubbles were everywhere.. she told me to come here if i had any kind of simple question, or to just call her, but i dont want to bother her.. and well he's a picture of wht it looks like

i need to know if that's normal or if i should take the fish out, i'd be swimming with the fishes if her fish were dead when she came home.


she chose the wrong person to take care of her fish.. oh and another thing, she feeds her fish pellets and i was wondering how many pellets do they need?

 

[mcshell]

how much % of water did you change?
it looks like the tap water has a lot of chlorine...
put some conditioner like aqua plus should be ok.

usually feed him ~3 pellets a day

It should be okay. I think it's just bubbles that stuck on to the walls when you took out the water and refilled it.

Make sure that the temperature of the water is roughly the same as the tanks. Don't take out all the water, just do about a 30% change. Be sure to use dechlorinator.

What kind of fish does she have?

 

[cheovanna]

I changed almost all of it :erm

and also, she has this stuff called chlor out is that good too?

they're two make bettas

 

[cheovanna]

the thing that really worries me is that it's on that one side only

make sure you use the chlor out if you haven't already. it will kill her fish if you don't. read the bottle and go by what the instructions say by the amount of water. 2-3 pellets a day for each of the bettas.

oh yeah, i put the chlor out in it, but there's still bubbles everywhere :/

I don't think the bubbles are anything to worry about, and there is not way to tell that there is chlorine in the water just by looking at it, so as long as you put the chlorout in then it should be fine. If anything the air bubbles are good, because it shows that when you did the water change it aerated the tank.

if her fish die, i'm saying it's your fault!!
