Those things will work as well as a leaf of romain lettuce...frozen brine shrimp will add weight to him as well.

get your hands on some Furazone Green...its a mild broad spectrum drug...Dose 1 day and then do a partial water chg...wash rinse and repeat for 3 weeks.

Mollies are a brackish water fish and are very succeptable to ich and whitespot. They are better off with salt, as in a brackish tank. I would suggest moving them to a bucket or tank and treat with salt and a temp of 82. As the salt will prolly kill off the frog and other fish in the tank, Id...

Hexamita may be the cause, they are an internal microscopic parasite that will cause things similar to your problem and looks alot like neon disease. But neon disease also saps color from the fish like a fungus. So Id sacrifice a fish to a microscope and look for Hexamita.

4 drops of methylene blue per gallon. After 24 hours, do a 25% water change...sit another 24 hours and repeat...do that for 2 weeks and youll be ok and prolly save most of the kiddies.

Isolate him to a salt treated tank and add either furazone green or 2 drops of methy blue..and chg the water every other day...and keep the sand for him to burrow in.

Nope..Angels do not pair for life..As a Breeder, I can tell you that angels are both very social to other fish...But at the same time, some can have a mean streak. If your running a community tank...Add more angels and redocorate the tank the day you introduce the new members...

The trick with all meds is a water chg every other day..You med 1 dose a day, then the next day change the water Dose the day after. Med /water/med/water/etc...Ususally takes 3 weeks for the cycle and if the fish isnt cured. Flush it.

Turn off all pumps and filters for a few hours...As suggested above, let it settle after scooping out what you can with a fine mesh net...Then hydroclean as above, which is also a water chg...Dont feed for 3 or 4 days...let the filter and the bacteria catch up, cuz your ammonia is going to...

As a former angel breeder...Its old age. The gold strain was never very sturdy strain and 5 years for an angel is about right. She also has a fungus on the gills and the concave belly tells me she isnt eating, or you arent offering the right foods. It's time for a burial at sea, hun... Im sorry...

5 years is old age for most fishes...and that sounds like the cause.. Puffers are brackish water fish..so you might try a 50% salt mix and see how he does....

I have to agree completely with that. Redecorateing the tank throws the fish off a bit and it might reduce the spats.....

Simple...Leave the tank alone and let it cycle naturally...The more crap you dump into the tank will only screw it up again/more..... Im thinking either you over fed or had something in the tank itself that would have caused the prob in the 1st place.

Algae is caused by too much light or by direct sunlight in a tank. Its also a sign of a healthy water condition. Make sure your tank is away from any windows or direct sunlight and turn the tank lights off at night...My suggestion would be to turn them off for at least a week until you find a...

Red tails, and rainbow and albino rainbow are all basically the same fish...Yes, a little romain is good, but they tend to be nocturnal and feel safer feeding at night, much like a cory cat. After they pick a territory in the tank, they can become quite aggressive...especialy against their own...

Chopped romain lettuce...great for all bottom feeders and plecos....

Dont feed the fish for 4 days...your lacking the denitrifying bacteria....they will grow in the cycle...but dont feed the fish for now as you will only increase ammonia levels and cause more harm...Just let the tank run for 4 or 5 days,

The cloudy water is due to either over feeding or a tank that hasnt cycled yet....It takes at leats 2 weeks for a freshwater tank to cycle the proper bacteria...6 months for the basics on a salt tank.....

Do a partial water change on the pond or tank...Stay with the salt treatment...any non iodized salt will work... Id give them a stong dose of furazone green and leave em sit for a few days... Change the water at 50% if any signs of stress.....

Its a mild , wide spectrum drug that works for most fish ails, such as fungus etc....use it in light doses. Let the dose ride for 2 days, then do a slight water chg...then dose again...do that for about 2 weeks...

wrong. Dumping a bunch of crap in your tank will not help. Youll just kill the bacteria in your filter and create more probs... a perfect filter should filter 5.5 times the tanks volume per hour. I recommend a 1/4 water chg and dont feed the fish for 4 or 5 days...just leave it sit...The damage...

Id go with a dose of Furazone Green...then a 1/4 water chg after 2 days..repeat that treatment for about a week if the fish perk up.

1/4 water chg and no feeding for 3 days...Not alot for swim bladder...Id write em off. Dont dump a bunch of crap in the tank...if the fish is strong, he might make it, if not...well..you tried.

Its simple. Your making too many water changes. If you have cured the fish of ick useing methylene blue and 78 degree temp and a 1/4 water chg every 2 days over 10. Then I would just let the tank sit and cycle. It will take a few days to a week... You have to let the bacteria grow again..It...

Hi all!! This forum was sent to my by a friend that I helped with a few tank probs. I have been keeping fish for over 30 years, everything from salt to fresh water fishes of all species. Ive had several jobs in my youth at pet stores and was the head medicator of a major tropical hatchery for...
