could be a sign of some sort of internal infection?! :S which, unfortunatly, left unchecked, could be terminal. any other signs? whats your water stats?

definatly keep a close eye on him! in my experience, bettas a really prone to internal bacterial infections! if you see any symptoms, treat accordingly asap. as for the fins, i'm not sure! if they've been nipped, they may become infected? :sad: check fishdoc for illness/disease info, and...

some better news! yesterday was really bad, all the fish were really ill! :-( 4 days previous, i dosed with interpet no.9, and the second dose was due. they looked so ill, i did a 35% water change, then re-dosed. today, they look much better!! :nod: the guppy fry are active again, and no...

It's the same problem! it started with a female betta. she died quickly, and fairly suddenly. The second female quickly became ill with the symptoms, but lasted days, finnally she also died. The male died one day after that, quite suddenly. All was well after that, for a day or so. Suddenly...

hi I dont understand the "maracyn 1 and 2" - what does this do? how do i treat? cheers

sounds very similar! At the begining it seemed "one by one". But i fear Its going beyond that now... I'm also looking hard, i'll let you know if i find anything!!

ok, after the betta problem (see this thread) i thought I'd be ok, just minus the bettas :sad: ITS SPREAD! :-( - guppies, the guppy fry, most neons, clown loaches I tried a water change, and treating the tank (internal bacterial infection (on the second part of dose now)) but I've just noticed...

ok, so the female has died. She appeared to be getting better too :angry: I've considered dropsey, and slime, but the symptons fit internal bacterial infection the best, also the idea from my LFS. So, i treated accordingly. 1 day after the treatment, the female died. A day later, the male...

just tested again, tap water is 17gh, tank is currently 14 (back up from 12 -_- )

tap water here is hard (but the tank is harder) -_- but because of this, i've tried RO water, this was fine for a day or so, but soon became hard! as for decorations, i dont think so. nothing that would effect gh? live plants, and some bog wood (cleaned, pre soaked etc) why? they love it...

Hey, There is carbon in the filter too! but, it's been there since I got the tank, about 9 months ago - does this need changing? how often would you change the carbon? cheers guys!!

Hi, I've (usually) always hard fairly hard water (15 - 20 gh) :no: My LFS said it was probably the gravel. So, i tested it (take some out, dry it off - then add some ph minus to it. if it bubbles, or even smokes, then thats the prob). It did bubble/pop a bit, but not much. I DONT fancy...

hi, they are in the same tank, but i've been watching close, they dont appear to fight. the male follows her, and shows off tho! here's a pic of her. its a really crap photo, but u can see the worst area's of her body. img tag isnt working properly? maybe me? i dunno!!? so you can see it here

similar problems? see here

maybe, but all the fish in the tank they came from appeared fine!

Hi, I've looked for answers, but cant find any, so... I have (rather, had) 1 male, and 2 female siamese fighters (got them 2 days ago). One female has died. the other looks ill - and the male isnt all that good either. The female that died, looked like she had lost her scales? either that...
