Okay, sounds good. Thanks for the reply! Hopefully it isn't anything fungal, but that should be semi easy to treat if it is. I need to do a water change anyway and clean the algae off my plants :)

I don't think it looks fuzzy. None of my other fish have it and it doesn't seem to be affecting the fish's energy level or appetite. Should I just leave it alone and keep an eye on it?

I just got done feeding my neons this morning and noticed one of them has a white patch on its side. Does this look like a wound or should I be worried about potential disease? I noticed some of them have been chasing each other as well this morning, so I'm wondering if he scraped against one of...

Hi everyone, I'm currently finishing up cycling a new 10 gallon tank, but have been dealing with an infestation of microorganisms which I believe came from old filter media. I had to leave my fish tanks for about 3 days, and while I was gone I had a brown algae bloom. I have my lights on a...

I am preparing for my first spawn, but finding it hard to narrow down which type of betta I want to breed. I've heard that some of the long-finned varieties are harder to breed than plakats, so I was wondering what you all have had success with.

I'm looking to start up a breeding project this summer and want to order some young, high quality bettas. I am located in SC and there seems to be a good breeder in TX that runs a shop called Betta USA on eBay. Just wanted to know if anyone has done business with them in the past. There are good...

Have any 20 gals left?

Thank you! Makes me feel a little bit better.

Now I feel icky I hope they didn't come from my tap!! I rinsed the zucchini under the sink before I put it in.

How do they get into the tank?

I currently have a small bare bottom tank I've been using to quarantine a few otocinclus before adding them to my community tank. Last night I added a piece of blanched zucchini I had thawed from the freezer, and today I noticed all of these microorganisms. Do you think they're fry, or some kind...

Thank you! I hope that he's just stressed from the trip and not injured. Your reply really means a lot. It seems kind of silly to make a post, but I just wanted to know what other people thought. These neon tetras are my babies! Update: Fish just died. I'm not sure what was wrong with him and...

Today, when I went to feed my neon tetras, one of them didn't eat and was breathing heavily. I recently moved their tank a few hours down the road and had to do a large water change, so maybe he is just stressed from the trip? During transport, I kept the neon tetras together in a styrofoam...

Nice! Thank you for taking time to photograph them. Do you know how much it would cost to ship that one and 1-2 of the smaller ones? I'd be interested in buying a couple for a decent price Zip is 29630

That's actually really cool. I never knew that about the mountains in Idaho! Thanks so much
