Hi Elizabeth. Sounds like you may have to allow your biological filtration to recover and allow your tank to cycle after such a rapid overhaul. 4 days is not an incredibly long time coupled with the large water change and media swap out. We would recommend monitoring your nitrite and ammonia levels: if properly cycled these should be around 0ppm. You may also try using a biological filter enhancer to expediate the process. Let us know if you need additional assistance. Good luck!

thanks for the info will do

Hi Seri, Frank Indiviglio here.Thanks for your question and kind comments.
Turtles can indeed make entertaining and long-lived pets. However, it... Read More’s nearly impossible to house them with fish in an aquarium. Even the smallest turtle will latch onto the fins or skin of fishes far too big to eat, injuring them in the process. You would need a different type of filter for turtles, but even with such the ammonia they produce eventually will kill most fish. Most turtles also need a UVB light as well as an incandescent light to create a warm basking site. There are a number of turtles that do well in deep water tanks, but again, not with fish. If you are interested in keeping turtles, please check some of my articles on ThatReptileBlog. Good luck!

That's what I thought, so I was very surprised to see the turtle in the tank with all the chichlids. When I commented on my blog, another friend said she has a bunch of little turtles in her tank with her fish. Thought it was odd.

A 100 gallon is recommended for the fire eel as it does get pretty long, but it is not typically an active swimmer like other fish. Give him a nice log or cave and a soft, deep sand bed to burrow into if possible. A tight fitting lid is also highly recommended. A 125 or a 180 may have better dimensions if you can go that large, especially if you want to keep other fish too. Good luck!
