Great thread! Well, let's see. I believe I came here last June because my Hubby wanted a tank for Fathers Day. We got him a 10g. Then (because we hadn't researched it yet) some of the lovely folks on here informed me that the Bala & Iridescent Shark needed a bigger tank. So, we kept...

Well, I guess I won't worry too much then. I just wasn't sure what to do as we have been cycling this tank to transfer our daughters fish to a bigger tank and the worms kinda freaked me out. Thanks for the replies!

Yesterday I noticed a few little white worms on the thermometer. I don't really see them in the gravel, but after swishing around in the tank I could see some in the water. Everything I have read leads me to believe it is Planaria, but I also read that the most common cause is from over...

Thanks for your input. Question though, are you saying it is already overstocked or would be if I put more fish in? I planned on leaving it how it currently is. I know they plec will outgrow it. He's another we "rescued" from someone else. LOL In about 2 months we are getting a 55g and...

Hi all! I'm hoping someone can help me out. I was recently given a 30g (high) tank with the condition that I took the Red Tail Shark in it. So, I did, but how long can he stay in this tank? He now has 3 Tiger Barbs, an Albino Tiger Barb and a Sailfin Pleco as tank mates. Thanks for your...

Spine does not look bent. No red or inflamed anus. Nothing looks out of place except looking so skinny. In order to tell you how it's pooping I'll have to watch it for a while. Thanks for the quick reply though. Oh, do you think I should quarantine it?

One of our Kissing Gouramis looks emaciated. Eating fine but isn't swimming around as much. Lip/head area looks normal but then it just looks really skinny. Do fish get emaciated?

I was thinking about that earlier. Our tank is over stocked and the lfs knew we had a 10g and all our fish were bought there. They even asked hubby what we had before he bought the 2 sharks. I admit we are total novices but shouldn't someone working (in our case, the owner) know that 2...

:*) Ok, so since a 100g is not a possibility I think I will see if the lfs will take the sharks back. Can I put the 6 barbs and the Gourami in a 55g? They have gotten along so far. Keep the 2 Swordtails in the 10g? They are male & female. Ugh, why did I let him talk me into this before I did...

Myhusband gets his advice from friends, while I've been searching this site. :D I believe our tank is over stocked. He's even added a few since we joined here a few days ago. :/ In a 10 gal we currently have the following: 4 Tiger Barbs, 2 Albino Tiger Barbs, 2 swordtails, 1 Gold...

One of our 10 gal is on a sewing machine cabinet. The other 10 gal is on our daughters dresser.

Well, my hubby and I have decided to get some fish. We have 2 10 gals going. We'll probably need some help along the way. ;) Just wanted to say hi!
