Thanks :)

Hi guys and girls, My tank is now a year old and i am looking to expand my fish collection. I am a big fan of tetras (have been since we had some neon tetras in primary school) and i have waited till my tank is mature enough to handle them. I already have some glowlight tetras and kitty tetras...

I found my Betta Jazz like that, looked just like he stopped swimming and sank, all his fins we out etc. I think my OH accidentally over fed him :( R.I.P lil fish

Yeah I watched it for a few minutes n it dived under like a mini submarine, is it likely i have lots of them, I see they are nocturnal but I've not spotted any when the tank has no lights on

I was just checking my tank when I spotted this lil thing, as far as I was aware the only 2 snails I had were my 2 zebras Hum and Bug. What is it? Could it be a Malaysian Trumpet Snail (I looked at the guide n it looks similar) and where did it come from? I change water every 2 weeks, there...

He looks like my old boy Jazz

Wow he's stunning!

hes lovely!

Both my males ive had liked to chill against the inlet bars, freaked me out at first but its normal, i a piece of my tights over it to stop their fins going through. For his fins you will need to do regular water changes.

i'd treat the ich first and then deal with the fin rot

Were they baby ones? ive got glowlights in with my females and ive never had any problems, they are bigger than my females mouths. Are you sure they were alive when they were eaten?

Hee hee look at that face! Def one only a mother could love!

My female Betta got Columnaris, its characteristics are: *frayed and ragged fins - they get see through spots on their fins *appearance of ulcerations on the skin, and subsequent epidermal loss, identifiable as white or cloudy fungus-like patches (see my photos) *Mucus often also accumulates on...

Lovely!

lol!

wow can i ask how many you have now?! they are all so beautiful!

wow beautiful - i love the lilac one

One of my females has them perminantly, she is the lowest ranking one but otherwise happy in herself

wow stunning blue colour!

R.I.P Lucifer! its horrible to loose them

wow yes please!

i love his name as it is! maybe because i love eminem! My 2 males i had were called Vader (after darth vader) and jazz (because he was "ooohh Jazzy") lol

i love how he couldn't make his mind up about what colour he wanted to be!

You weren't the only one, i really tried to save her but the #41#### stuff had got too far - i'm kicking myself because i now know that for a while she was showing the initial signs (cloudy spots on her fins) but i didnt know they were the issue - she put up a good fight though - sources ive...

OMG they are stunning!

Well my lil girl finally gave up. R.I.P lil Marilyn :(

This morning she is still with us - just! Shes floating at the top of the tank breathing quite deep and fast, ive put a glass in for a little ledge if she gets tired. The big chunk she lost looks a nice pink colour and the bit on her back doesnt seem any worse, her poo seemed the becoming back...

I only have freeze dried ones n she doesnt seem a fan, I guess I could try again. I am rooting for her!

Shes still alive, this girl is tough, I have done a water change, adding salt and then the declor and Myxazin. Shes stillnot eating but I owe it to her to try!

She seems to want to live, she has always been my strongest fiestiest female - urgh this is so hard, i think i will give it one more day, try Tolaks method and see.

:sad: Urgh not holding up much hope for this little girl!!! Shes still with us but her breathing seems to be getting faster, shes spending more time at the surface breathing, theres now another white section behind her dorsal fin and she has got white stringy poo (she also hasnt eaten for 3...

Thank-you for your repl6 am glad to know I'm on the right track with her

Today she has sloughed off the white patch, I dont know if this is a good sign or a bad sign Please does any one have any ideas. Ph 7 ammonia, nitrite and nitrate all too low to register in my test kit, I do 50% water changes everyday - she has been on her own for 3 weeks due to regrowing...

Today she has sloughed off the white patch, I dont know if this is a good sign or a bad sign

Im gonna try the Myxazin then looking at her fins they are ragged so im guessing its columunaris, I hope it works
