    Fish Gulping Air

    I've just noticed that the carbon sponge has gone 8wks. I've just changed it & will see what happens over the next few days. Yes they are all eating. Another thing he's doing is when he goes & takes air he shakes his head sharply like a jerk. It's like maybe he's trying to dislodge or shake of...

    Fish Gulping Air

    Not been on for a while. He still does it & his poo is still clear. We do a 30% water change every 2 weeks including a full gravel clean (although the wife just said it was after 3-4wks without a change that this started). We have a nitrate kit which always shows it's clear. It's a Juwel Rio...

    Fish Gulping Air

    Well each time we've tested the water (even at a shop) they're always spot on. He's been fine all day today?? This is a weird one. BTW i tried peas & they didn't like them. They spit them out.

    Fish Gulping Air

    I've just fed them now & he's a gutty bugger. Now i've fed them he's searching the bottom constantly. He's not thinned or fattened. Whilst there's food in the tank he's happy.

    Fish Gulping Air

    Waters moving loads, he's very active, gills show no redness, skin looks good, no parisites BUT you mention his poop. Well the last one we saw it was unusually clear. It had some brown bits but it was more clear & thin. I've not seen that before so maybe this could hold the answer.

    Fish Gulping Air

    I have 6 regular goldfish & 5 are fine but recently the largest & oldest has started spending a lot of time gulping for air. He always does this in the exact same spot next to the filter. It's a 400ltr juwel rio with a ASP400 pump aswell. He's generaly healthy & very active but it's worrying...
