You should do a 50 percent water change monthly or 20 percent per week depending on what kind of fish you have.

Depending on what fish there are, I find a monthly water change too little. But if you put a couple of live plants in there, it would help the chemistry.

Couple of questions before further advice is given:
1) What kind of fish do have?
2) How many of what species?
3) What size tank do you have, and does get sunlight at all?

.........I need ah bigger tank......anybody have one over 5ft for sale, reasonably priced
i sell bout' 6 kois from this tank already....i want to keep these

[DJ]

Any tank less than 8ft will be too small to house them koi and sharks together. Dont know why people but koi and Iridescent Sharks and put them in an aquarium. They are pond fish. Those sharks can get to 3 ft if properly taken of. If not properly taken care of, they will get stunted, and eventually die prematurely. Same goes for the Koi.

[meccalli]

3ft is joke, that's the same thing they selling in pricesmart...fillets of swai aka iridescent catfish. The body remains small, but the organs continue to grow so eventually.... X(
