Filtration. Water change frequency and what percent water is done. Results for pH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. If you dont have test kits for these take a jar of water to your lfs and ask them to test it for you. Get numbers from them and let us know results. Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

As Lindy stated to give an answer a lot more infomation is required in other words every thing about your tank including what, and how you do it also how often. This also detailed info about all the fish in the tank. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.
