I will move him to a smaller tank that I can fully treat with MB, he still eats and swims around. He has been laying at the bottom or on objects a lot lately, but he gets up and moves around and he did this before the growth he just does it more now. He doesn’t have clamped fins and doesn’t seem...

Hello, a while ago I noticed a small white growth on my betta. I treated it with a few things including salt and other things and it didn’t seem to go away and only got bigger over time. I came home the other day and noticed it looked like it was shedding. Today it seems to have burst and is red...

Hey everyone, I’m not sure what this is/what to do about it. My betta has a growth that started about 2 weeks ago and has been growing, it’s white and beside his head and above his forward fins. I’ve been treating with salt but it hasn’t been doing much. Any help would be great.

Recently I’ve found 2 guppy fry in my tank that have very large stomachs and a red almost blood coloured line on the stomachs, I’m not sure what it is and can’t find an answer when I search for it. It looks like defect and it’s making it hard for them to swim. Any help would be appreciated.

What would you recommend doing?

From the sounds of it, it was gradual. I’ve been out of town for just over 2 weeks and she was slim when I left. The rest of the tank are normal.

I’m out of town at the moment and have a friend taking care of my fish, my female silver Molly was normal size when I left and now she is huge. Not sure if it’s just pregnancy or something else. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey everyone, I have had 2 ADF for about 6 months now, a male and a female. They have been singing the entire time I’ve had them and a couple times a week they latch onto each other. I know this is normally a sign of mating but as I said it been happening every few days for six months and there...

Hey everyone, I have had this lemon tetra for about 6 months and everything was fine until about a week ago, it started swimming in circle and spinning and such, it only did it for about 5 minutes so I wondered if maybe it had just hit its head or something. It was acting normal for about a week...

Beautiful set up! But as GaryE said, unless they crash through your wall into the tank, it should be completely fine. The noises may stress some of the fish out, but it shouldn’t be a life or death thing. Possibly lower the amount of lighting they get (turning off the tank lights if you have...

Hey everyone, I’ve had this balloon Molly since she was born, she was the fry of a previous generation of fish I had. She has siblings that are much younger than her, you can see one in one of the images. She sleeps at the bottom of the tank with her stomach fully on the ground, and quite often...

Does anyone know what this might be/how to treat it? I noticed this white spot on my guppies head a few days ago. I quarantined her and added salt. She is still alive and swimming, however, the bump hasn’t changed size or shape. Any help would be appreciated.

Did a water change, here are the pictures I got right before doing it. He’s fast so it’s hard to get good quality. He is in a 7.5 gallon with a mystery snail, he has a heater and filter, he is eating and swimming as usual. Nitrates and Nitrites are normal, >15 and >0, no ammonia, pH is constant.

Hey everyone, I was away for the weekend and when I came home I noticed these white spots on my Bettas head. It doesn’t look like the Ich I’ve encountered in the past, but I could be wrong. Can someone tell me what it is / what could treat it? Thank you!

I am trying to breed snails without much success so far, I’m not sure whether they are mating or cleaning each other. Can anyone tell?

Nitrate is below 10, pH is in the mid 7’s, Nitrite is 0, ammonia is currently present as the fish just died, but normally it is at 0. Temperature is set at 78-80. The tank has been going for 6 months and is cycled. Ive purchased from Petsmart, Petland, and my local high quality fish store (as I...

Hello all, I have multiple tanks (2x20 gallon) and (2x10 gallon), and in one of the twenty gallons I would like to add another Balloon Belly Molly. I have tried adding 3 over the course of the last couple months, but all the new ones die within about a week. The tank has 2 mature female ballon...

Hello, I have 2 ten gallon tanks, in one I have 2 female balloon belly mollies and a rubber mouth pleco, and in the other i have balloon belly babies and 2 mystery snails. In the tank with the two females there seems to be something interesting happening. While i have had one of the mollies...
