spots

We went to get some snails yesterday and at the same time we got our water tested, our water was apparently all good and I do a weekly 40-50% water change and have never had any issues with my test at home kit. This morning, each snail has excreted about 50 little black dots, at the first we...

Hiya, first post here after snooping for a couple of years. One of my Channa andrao has developed black dots on her head, and she and the rest of the tank inhabitants are flashing regularly, but there are no other symptoms in the tank and parameters are absolutely normal (0ppm nitrites, 0ppm...

Hi, As mentioned in the title of this thread, I’m wondering if my platy has ich. About a week ago I noticed that the fish didn’t seem to be pooping, and seemed very lethargic. I fasted the tank for a day and fed peas afterwards. Then she seemed to perk up. Then, unfortunately she started to...

Hello friends,   A few days ago, I brought home four otos. They appeared to have some minor ick (no surprise,) so they are in quarantine and being treated with Kordon Rid-Ich Plus. However, now it looks like something I'm unfamiliar with - maybe a fungus - is spreading among them. The dots are...

I got a fish a few days ago all ammonia level and nitrite is good and so is nitrate however one of my mollies has a white dryisish spot near its tail here it is 

Hi,   I am half-way through performing a fishless cycle and I have noticed some white spots on a decoration log. The 36l tank is 10 days into the cycle. Water readings are what you would expect during the cycle with NH4, Nitrite and Nitrates all showing. pH is 7.6 and seem to be stable. I have...

:,( Hypnos has succumbed to ich :( :( :( he developed little white spots on his tail fin about a week ago, then he started to lose his red colour :( I transferred him straight into my hospital tank, treated him with bettafix and salt and kept up my water changes in the hospital tank all week! He...
