The fish that had dropsy is already dead, he wasn't mine. My question was..can I put the fish that were in the same tank with this dropsy fish into my OWN tank. It has been 2-3 weeks since this fish died and the other fish look fine, they were given to me but I just do not want my own fish to...

How contagious? If one fish had it does that mean all of the fish in the tank have it also. I am asking because the person this fish belonged to gave me the tank, and her other fish, and I would like to put them, plus my fish all in the same tank. They do not appear to have this..and it has been...

Yeah, that's what it was, the pictures look the same.. Blew my mind when I saw it though Is it contagious to the other fish??

My friends mother had a fish tank not too long ago, and one of her platys scales were almost poofy like. Like they were full of air almost, his entire body looked spikey, and inflated. It was the most bizarre thing i've ever seen, the fish is now dead. I am assuming it was a disease of some...

I have read the other posts..with no luck, that is why i asked this question

I have moldy silicon all along all 4 corners of the inside of the tank. I had the tank given to me and I would like to put use to it. I want to re-do the siliconing but i am going into this blind, I have not done this before. Do i just need to scrape the inner layer out and put new stuff...

Does anyone else know of any kind of silicone that can be used, OTHER then aquatic silicone

do you know the name of the plain clear silicone?

i have to redo all inside silicone, all 4 corners from top to bottom

ya i know its the safest but its pricey where i live..so i was hoping to get away with some other kind, do you know the name of it?

I had a tank given to me but the silicone has gone moldy and i would like to re-do it. What kind of silicon can i use from home depot or home/northern hardware, if there is any..

i have more then one, i have 2, i know this isnt enough but i cant get anymore, so they'll have to live the way they are till i do get more

I don't know what kind it is, I just had him given to me a week ago

thank ya

this is one of my VERY few pictures that turned out well, just testing out adding pictures :rolleyes:

Even so, people should not assume that someone with a newbie status does not know much, and respond like they are irritated (if this is the case when someone responds to a newbie status)

I am new to the site, not the hobby

Okay I don't. I feed one piece of veggie a day, if i have it.. Flakes for my barbs and other fish And pellets or wafers, depends which one I feel like putting in, for the bottom feeders. If I put the wafers in, my barbs devour it before the bottom feeders even get to it...little buggers. So I...

Does the "newbie" and other statuses mean how long you've been on the site, and/or how many posts you've put? or is there a way to classify and change your own status somewhere that I don't know about. Because if so, then just because someone is new to the site and are labeled a newbie, doesnt...

I have been feeding them cucumber, the other fish do eat it though, they eat out the center and leave the rest, i feed my pleco everyday with pellets and algae wafers. I just wanted to know if there is such thing as too much veggies for them

Barbs, gouramis, red tail and bala sharks, a pleco, a couple yoyo's and tetras, 2 cichlids, and a flying fox

Is there such thing as feeding fish too many veggies, is there a once a week rule or anything like that. Or are you able to feed them a piece once a day.

My yoyo botias have not been any troubles at all, they are the only bottom feeders in the tank other then my pleco, i love them, they are entertaining doing circles for hours in the back of the tank, and will be getting some more without hesitation

I have 6 tiger barbs and 3 green barbs in my tank with a blue gourami, a gold gourami, 2 moonlight gouramis and a honey sunset gourami, plus many other fish. I have not had any issues other then the blue gouramis picking on the gold gouramis, but not the tigers picking on the gouramis. So with...

I have discovered the problem, thanks for your answer though I do feed them twice a day, sometimes 3. I feed them sinking pellets, wafers, and whatever food sinks to the bottom My tank conditions are fine, so its not that. I have spoke to someone about it but thank you for your response!

I have a good filter, dont worry. I do all my reading and searching before I buy anything. there is about 15 - 20 gallons of water

they are cool water fish but they are tolerable to warmer temps, atleast mine are, they arent dead yet and ive had them forever

I've had 2 yoyo botias, for quite some time now, they are very small, about 1 inch still. My friend also has had his for roughly the same amount of time, approx 3 months, and they were bought at the same size as mine. His yoyo's have grown considerably, they are about 2 iches now, if not...

I have a semi aquatic tank, with a school of small white cloud minnows, and i would like to add a dwarf gourami, but will he torment and kill the minnows?
