Eating fine and nothing protruding from his bum. If it is parasites, is there anything I can add to the water that won't have any effect on the other fish?

I have a community tank with sharks, mollies, guppies, clowns, tetras (various) etc and I have had 1 rummy nose tetra, 1 dalmation molly and 1 silver shark all eating /swimming and appearing completely normal apart from being very thin. Of the 3, only the shark is still alive. His fins aren't...

I have one red molly that has a few tiny white spots on its body and dorsal and one baby loach that has a few on its tail only. Could it be Ick? Whether or not it is what cure is available? A friend of mine gave me a little bottle of 'Protozin' some time ago. Will this help. Both fish are...

:D After seeing one of the guppies giving birth and the other fish eating them one at a time, without a breeding net I used a little improvisation and saved quite a lot in a normal net whilst trying to keep mum away from them. She's now back in the main tank and the babies are all in the net...

How many does a guppy give birth to in one go. Is it like 2 or 3 or is it 10-20 or more?

Sorry - a bit long winded. I am not a professional so you may need to seek other advice but I have kept a pond for a number of years and still maintain coldwater fish predominantly koi. I have only relatively recently gone into tropical fish. (8 months or so) Fortunately none of my tropicals...

I have 6 male and 5 female guppies. I've got a male guppy constantly chasing one of the mollys. It is always the same one that he chases. Is this normal or is this male feeling a bit lonely becuse of the 5/6 ratio so he picks on another breed? Is it possible for them to mate and if so what...

Will do.

I have just introduced 5 dalmation mollies into my tank 1 male 4 female. They keep trying to bite each other and occasionally other fish. It is usually the females that fight although the male has just started picking on others. They dont seem to be bothered which one they pick at so its not as...

Do the ulcers appear to come from beneath the scales and sort of seem to be squeezing its way out? Also have any of the fish suffered/died from dropsy recently?

Got any pictures

Came home from work yesterday to my 15 year old daughter saying 'Dad, Dad quick - one of the fishes has drowned'. :S What she was referring to was the fact that the plec who is about 1.5 inches had gone down the air tube and as it was faced down couldn't get out and was being bombarded with...

Sorry for the delay in replying its 24x12x18

thanx

and another. Is there a way I can add two pictures together

Try again

I only just took these now just to see if they work. They don't dive the fishes any justice whatsoever

Sorry for being a bit thick but I don't know where to find the 'members tank section' you refer to

I have seen some people have managed to get a picture of their fish or whatever within this text bit . . like here (picture.jpg) . . and then carry on. How do you do it?

Thanx

Apart from relocating my tank a few days ago, I also renewed the tube. Since relocating and new tube, I have lost 1 silver shark and all mercury guppies (5). Could the loss be down to a new tube or is it what I think it was and down to the relocate. :huh:

My tank uses under gravel filtration. The air tube causes the water to circulate around the tank. Am I supposed to switch off the air pump at night so that the water goes still so the fish can sleep without swimming into the water flow? Also can someone tell me what length of time to leave the...

:rolleyes: Just thought I'd say hello to everybody. My name is Ian and come from Manchster UK. I have kept a pond for the past few years and have kept koi, goldfish, shubunkins etc. About June last year I bought two tanks. One 4ft (usually empty) and one 2ft which is now home to red wag...
