I bought one of those "Ultimate Guide to fishkeeping" books at a local borders bookstore recently. It's been pretty helpful with pH and, hardness, and water changes and all. But I saw a little tip in the food section that really helped. Using mosquito larvae as food. I made a synthetic...

I'm sure there's people that have other opinions, that's why they get riled up. And that's fine, I stated my opinion, and the opinion of a lot of people. Swim on, KeoghJacob

This is getting pretty bad now. Walmart, PetSmart and PetCo. All your usual pet stores are stocking the little 1/2 gallon tanks now, they are marketed towards Bettas. I am a bit disappointed that companies are putting out extremely inadequate tanks. You'll see on the box "All you need to have...

What is the least gallon tank I can use on this fish. And my Catfish ID manual says Slender Madtoms get 3 to 5 inches long.

I also have a female platy which stays at the top. Her belly is slightly bloated but not enough to notice. Is she pregnant?

So, what is the smallest tank I should use without Making the fish seem closed in? My Missouri Catfish identification manual says they get 3 to 5 around here.

Well, these two Walmart fish have nearly devastated my whole tank. They first infected my corydoras catfish, which proceeded with a red face till he died later that day. Then my silver angelfish, which caught the finrot the two kissers had, and it had killed them. Then my golden algae eater...

Well, this isn't getting better, it's a "WalMart" fish. I have been doing treatments over and over, it isn't helping. As of tonight, it's been laying sideways on the gravel. I personally don't believe he'll make it through the night. He's been going in and out of dead periods where all gill...

Can I treat ich in any way other than Malachite green? And what's also bad is I have a thermometer that keeps the temp at 78 and 78 only, so.

I have two kissing gouramis, both with this same condition. Both tend to lay near the bottom during the day and act very lethargic. The one in the video is more severe. Both of them have a large amount of dots on their skin and are experiencing fin rot. I'm thinking either Ich or Velvet...
