I am only worried because I hate seeing fish die. I am happy to report though that they are all doing wonderfully! I cleaned out their tank carefully last night and added some gravel (there as none) which is black, and two small plants. I reinstalled a mini heater (I was using a full size one...

Stop treating for Ich! -_- It's not Ich, it's something else. The Ich treatment isn't going to do him any good right now. You need to go and get him an anti-bacterial remedey. Not fungus....Anti-Bacterial. I am almost certain that is the cause. They will be Tylenol-shaped pills in...

Tonight at about 9p.m. MST someone came up to my dorm room door and knocked. When I went to the door to answer it, there was noone there! Instead there was a 2.5 Gallon fishtank sitting at the foot of my door with a note saying: "Take care of these stupid fish, I hate them and I know you are...

Damn the salt-eaters, lol. Goldfish are said to be salt-haters too....But Neo (my giant Black and orange comet) 'rolls' in the salt I add to his tank and then chases after the cloud as it rolls down to the gravel. I think he's a bit 'slow'. :lol:

Upside-down Catfish scare me. :nod: :nod: :X

Try feeding roughage and not flakes. Try pieces of Zuccini. It works wonders on my Goldfish. :nod:

Your beta is not normal. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I may be staying with my boyfriend here in Flagstaff, so I will be able to come and check on my fishies everyday, as long as they don't kill the power.

Now I don't know too much about Cory cats (I am a Goldfish , Oscar, Betta, and Gourami person myself) but by the looks of that picture he has some sort of bacterial infection of a lesion on his head. He may have gotten the lesion from scaping against rocks or your tank decor. It is not Ich...

Blah I am worried about winter break....I do not know whether they turn the power off or not...I am kinda nervous about it. Are you in college? If so where? And what do you think the probability of them shutting the power off would be? At Northern Arizona University we have Winter classes...

<poke poke> :crazy: You ok? Helloooooo?? <poke poke> :look: <walks away whistling.....> :look: :look:

Hmm....Space HEaters rule. I have one in my dorm room for my Hex Betas...But I don't highly recomend it....

My mom freaked when I told her how many fish I have in my dorm room! It's funny. I have a 100 gallon in my closet (It takes up the ENTIRE closet...lol), an empty 85 gallon under my bed, a 20 gallon next to my computer, and 10 5 gallon Beta tanks on a shelf in my closet, and 6 beta hexes on my...

The fish section in my Wal-Mart is the best section in the whole store. :lol: THe only problems they were having was with their Shubunkin Comet Goldfish (of which I am DEEPLY fond of). They ALWAYS have fungus or whitespot or spectisima (sp?) problem. Never healthy. Their Oscars always look...

I am afraid to add this because it will be long, but here it goes. I am Shannon and I am a compulsive Betaholic. :lol: :lol: :lol: These are my Boys and girls: Big Blue: My very first Beta. Perfect midnight Blue with a sheen of turquois in his anal and tail fins. His head is about the...

Hrm...Maybe my 30 dollar Oscar. :D And then a 5 foot, 80 dollar Tinfoil Barb that is still swimming around with two others about his size in a 300 gallon tank at my dads. :D :unsure: He's big!!

Her scales are not standing out to make her look like a porcupine are they?? It could be dropsy otherwise. As for the gesation peiriod for Balloon Mollies, I am not too sure. My albino mollie was pregnate for 3.5 weeks before birthing... -_-

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Turkey Basters!! That is a good idea thought, I use it on my Goldfish and Beta fry. :D

How warm is your home? As long as your home is fairly warm, then all you could do is wrap the tanks in insulated blankets at night. That's what I do with some of my newer fish that are in the dual hex tanks still. My bigger tanks I just have heaters in. I have never used a heat pad so I have...

I believe that those book syou have found are a bit whacky if you ask me. Mixing water leads to less shock when letting the new fish out. If you don't mix, the fish overstress. ;)

Most but not all....I have WAY too many!! So hard to choose!

I can get into the chat room but it won't let me type anything. I can see people typing but there is no place for me to type. HELP!

Ok a few weeks ago Gus and Sun laid eggs. Well they are long hatched and the babies are getting big! None are coming with me though.

I am debating whether to take this Oscar or not.. Her name is Bell...And she's huge.

I am only taking two of my 6 Tinfoil barbs with me, you like?

And this is Startlight (female Albino Oscar.)

This is the 150 gallon my two huge Tiger Oscars are waiting in fo rtheir trip to Flagstaff. This is Gus and Sun (female)

Ok yesterday I got my new tank, a 200 Gallon fully furnished aqaurim. I have no fish in it yet, but I have fish in their transfer tanks waiting the move from my Dad's house in Glendale. These are my babies that I have kept at his house for months!! Look! This is Cheeky, my Albino tiger oscar

UmmMmMm 16 now. :D It will be 20 by next week! Pictures are coming as soon as the camera film gets developed.

Awe that's a neat story! I have two cambodians right now, full blooded at that. I wish I could find a cambodian female to keep a decent strain...But the search continues. Anyways I havea similar rescue story that I am going to tell you about. I posted on another board about 5 new Betas I...

My male Gourami, Bill feels up the glass of his tank when I am sitting at my computer (which is in front o fthe tank). He's so cute! My Goldfish swim frantically up and down the side of their 100 gallon tank every time I move. It's so funny!

GRR! Guppymonkey, You have a GRR picture as your Avatar!! I LOVE YOU!!!! <~~Is a Zimaholic

I went to the LFS (Petsmart), for a checkup on the fish-stocks and found a whole overstocking of Betas! Most all were Blue or Red. Well I lucked out here and found tow females I couldn't resist! One is Poof, an all white female with Red fins and a red nose. Her anal fin is nearly recangular...

Hey Wuv, where can you find the Silver solution anyways? A new Comet of mine in my 100 is coming down with Ick....Copper Safe ust doesn't seem to be cutting it.
