I was worried that they had fish TB but I'm not sure; would hydrogen peroxide kill that?

I had 2 separate tanks with 2 goldfish in 1 and a single 1 in another. I used the same hose on both for water changes. My ranchu had a hole in head that was red with a white middle. I treated this with waterlife and it went away. Then both fish started to get fluid around the eye sockets and...

Thanks, but even the medications listed at the bottom are only available from the US, only listed on ebay and take over 2 weeks to arrive, might be too late by the point If anyone could list anything I'd be able to do as the UK is so limited for medications as we don't have antibiotics available

What is the water volume of the tank? 200 litres. About 55 US gallons How long has the tank been running? Around 2-3 months Does it have a filter? Yes a external canister fully cycled filter Does it have a heater? Yes What is the water temperature? 22°c What is the entire stocking of this...

I have 2 fancy goldfish, I noticed a slight hole in the head of 1 and it seemed to have white/yellow in it surrounded by red. I tried treating with melafix and it did nothing. I'm currently treating with waterlife octozin. The hole seems to have pretty much gone but the past couple days I've...

I'm in the process of cycling that tank (its new) and a quarantine one as I use the plants for other tanks. I'm just researching first in readiness. It's not a long tank, its relatively deep, would that change the amount of guppies I can keep? Thank you everyone for being honest about your...

Thank you all for the responses! How many would you say is the maximum for a 17 gallon? Especially given there will be plants taking up some room

I have a planted tank, I would like to add purely male guppies to it and was wondering what would be the best amount of them for a tank that is just shy of 17 US gallons? Its relatively heavily planted. I know guppies don't like to be alone but there is debate on other threads about them being...

Thank you everyone for the replies, its given me a lot of food for thought! I do have a quarantine tank, so if I get another fish I'll put it in there for a few weeks - a month. I would just be gutted to get a bully fish (be it unlikely), but if I see one I love then I'll try not let previous...

Other opinions would be great, I'll take all the advice I can get fish keeping has a lot more to it than I thought! You're very lucky to have both females; wish I had that luck haha I (personally) found that telescope goldfish are more docile and peaceful than other fancies so maybe get...

I have a long tailed, slI'm bodied female moor, I've had her for about 3 years. In the past I had 2 other fancies (ranchu and oranda) in with her. They chased her round the tank all the time so I had to put her in a separate tank. I found out they were both male and she was female, so that...
