I think I have a tetra that I think is constipated, it can swim fine when it tries hard, but when it stops working at it it flips upside down again and swims kind of sideways. I’m going to try an epsom salt bath like I did for my betta when she […]
My Blue Gourami has a red sore on his Right side near between his eye and his gill. I have quarantined him and I have been treating him with Melafix.. I have been treating him for over a week and he isn’t showing any signs of improving. He isn’t glancing off objects, but I have […]
Okay, I know I had asked about this before and I cannot find the post on the message board. Here’s the thing, I have a Male Convict Cichlid, he has what looks like a cyst on his right fin. It looks pink and bumpy. It’s the size of a small pea.. He […]
My betta is in a 20 gallon tank with 4 platies, 2 otocinclus, and 2 banjo catfish (who hide 99% of the time lol )
He seems to be very happy where he is

While I’m pretty sure my file is safe… at least it was safe when I uploaded it and Filefront has a history of being safe, YOU SHOULD NEVER OPEN A FILE from anywhere that you do not absolutely know to be safe. You should download the file first, then scan it with one or […]
Oh, at the pet store you can get all kinds of containers. I had a 2.5 gallon fish bowl, just like the gold fish bowls you see all the time. Get Glass as the plastic scratches up when you dump out the gravel in the bottom. However, a rounded shaped, wider mouthed […]
Question is, is he weak because he was stuck, or was he stuck because he was weak?
It is also my understanding that you can sometimes have several females in the same tank, but except for breeding they should not be in the same tank as the male.
They do sell a sponge that replaces the screen […]
Thanks for your thoughtful reply, Lenny. So what I think I am getting from this is “we don’t really know, but possibly”? You mentioned that you thought she was jittery. My fish isn’t jittery. I think someone else had recently written about some goldfish who were, but it is understandable that we get one another […]
Yes. You can really tell when CB swims under the bridge in each video. You know that bridge is going to have to go soon. It’s a big decoration so it’s taking a lot of room in the tank and the chance of it causing harm to your goldfish will rise as […]
What you describe could be attributed to an intestinal protazoan disease; the darkening coloration and the swimming pattern. As Lenny says, it would be a good idea to quarantine this fish, protozoan diseases are highly infectious. A treatment (which I believe can be safely used in conjunction with the Melafix) is to use a […]
