I've just bought some fin rot medicine ( It's the API MELAFIX ), should I treat for the fin rot first or the Ick? I don't know if it's a good idea to mix medicines or if I can even mix them safely without my fish getting harmed. I've just bought some fin rot medicine ( It's the API MELAFIX )...

I will go and purchase a ph and gh test to see how high the levels are, however the water testing strip said that the ph levels for my tank were 6.2 and acidic I guess, and the GH levels or Hardness was 300 ppm or very hard. I agree with you that these accompanied by the fin rot are probably...

I will go buy medicine for fin rot and change the water. Hopefully the infection doesn't get worse. Do you think the fin rot is the reason why he is not able to swim? Or could that be a completely different reason?

Thanks, I will do a 50% water change today! I do have a question however; My fish is just sitting at the bottom of the tank and every once in a while will try to swim around. Is there a way I can guarantee that it's eating ( do I need to hand feed it? ) because whenever I put a few flakes of...

I've bought a water testing kit! It's the 6 tests in one strip Quick Dip Aquarium Multi-test kit from Jungle! I've attached a picture of the chart with the ranges for safe chlorine, alkalinity, etc levels and the testing strip I've used here. I also typed out the results of the test as well...

We changed about 25% of the water and used AquaSafe ( which made the tap water we used safe I guess? It says on the bottle ) We did not clean the filter when we changed the water, however we did lower the temperature of the water a bit. I will try to use Photobucket of Flicker right now so I...

Hey! Thanks for helping me out! I'm not really sure what breed this fish is ( I received it from a friend who like me also has no experience on caring for fish ), but I don have a picture. I can send it to you because it's too big to attach to this reply. Yes, I've added 2 plants to the tank and...

Hello. My name is Marcus and I recently created this account to help find out what's wrong with my fish. It has recently developed a very pale stripe down it's side and became somewhat chubby in the stomach region, has developed cloudy spots on their eyes, and is floating straight up. I...
