I had a betta named Arrow.

Honestly, I have a very good Petco and I get my bettas from there. I say put them in the quarantine tank and leave it for a week. I've never had a problem.

Super cool! I'm into mantids. Don't have any at the moment, last year I had a couple. I'm gonna get into the moths soon! I really want some Chinese moon moths (Actias dubernardi). :)

The fish looks like a female. I could be wrong, but my female goldfish have a “outie” which I call them, just like that. The males have a “innie”. It’s kinda hard to determine gender on fancy goldfish when people say the males are slimmer with their bodies, because fancies are bred to be more...

She might just be young, If you don’t want them breeding maybe you can give her to a LFS, or set up a tank with only females.

Well, I went to go well, I didnt put him down because I noticed his swelling went down. His stool returned to normal, and he no longer has popped out eyes, and pine cone scales. Now vs last time.

Thank you so much

so so sad. I'll be getting clove oil today.

Ok, thank you

She wasn’t biting it, she just curled in :(. I’ll post a emergency post..

Well guys, I don’t think she’s gonna make it.. here’s a photo from when I was transitioning her from her personal tank into a hospital tank. This for sure I know isn’t normal. Before she curled up she flung herself around. Here’s another photo of her in the hospital tank. She can atleast hold...

I will, and thank you

I feed the fish bloodworms, brine shrimp, peeled steamed peas here and there, and tropical flakes. I will be putting the fish in a hospital tank where I will medicate him.. I'm going to do 25-50 percent water changed on the community tank he was housed in, I'm pretty sure there was a nitrate...

I think i'm going to try to use aquarium salt, and antibiotics.

ok, thank you!

I have a 3 year old guppy/molly cross (when I asked for two female guppies they scooped up him... he was in a female tank somehow) and he’s been a over all healthy fish. But today I noticed his scaled pine coned. He’s still active, and he ate today. I know that there is no “cure” for dropsy and...

I would keep the water that you have in there, your new beneficial bacteria will feed off the ammonia. If you wish you can get a bottle of beneficial bacteria to kick start its growth, it helped me a lot on my goldfish tanks.

Could be internal parasites or a swim bladder problem... first, if your able to, put him in a hospital tank or a little floating breeder box and make sure he eats. If he tries to swim up and he sinks back down, then it’s likely a swim bladder problem. If his stool is discolored or stringy, then...

First, how many barbs are in there? I would recommend atleast 5, more the merrier. If they don’t have enough buddies they can get stressed. What’s your water peramiters? Any tank mates?

ofc. Thank you!

The smaller ones on Goldfishisland are 35 dollars, and thats the smallest price i found. Fancy goldfish are oranda, ranchu, ryukin, any of the double tails, telescopes etc. So yes, ranchu are fancy goldfish, and since ranchu dont have any dorsal fins, only 20 percent of them hatch without...

Yes, your welcome.

Ranchu goldfish are more rare variety due to the fact that only 20 percent of ranchu offspring are actually ranchu, if you live in the US or Canada GoldfishIsland or Kingkoiandgoldfish have ranchu, good quality too! That's where I get all my goldfish. Ranchu goldfish cost 30-300 dollars...

I don't know tooo much about the worth of long bodied goldfish, but prices can vary on size. Depending on the coloration, and quality too, i'd say 20-100 dollar range, if you wait till they are at least 5 inches. Also that wall tank, if I were rich I'd have something like that too, sounds so...

She’s in a 1 gallon container at the moment, I took her out of the main tank for a couple days when I noticed something was wrong. I put her in the container to make sure she kept eating... I’ll be moving her to a 6.8 gallon planted tank to live the rest of her life in, so there’s no competition...

It’s the normal color it’s always been, normal looking.

I love crown tails too, and yes, i've seen her eat yesterday, although she has not eaten today yet.. shes still using the bathroom which is good lol

It’s a female crowntail, i think your just seeing the crowntail part of her. Her home tank is planted with Java fern and Ludwigia.

Thank you, the water peramiters are good. She’s in a hospital tank right now until I figured out what’s wrong with her, now since i figure it’s old age, I’ll be moving her to a smaller planted tank so I can actually feed her.. don’t worry about her pale appearance, she’s always had that...

I couldn’t get the other oranda he’s fast so I’ll try again later LOL
