I don’t think she’s going to make the night... she’s looking pretty weak right now just resting on the bottom not doing any movement but gulping.

No soap of any kind! Especially dish soap or windex. They will leave residue which is hard to get rid of and will poison the water. These types of soap are actually very hard to get completely off of glass. Even avoid it on the outside of glass. If you want to use ground water it should be okay...

DoubleDutch Gourami36 Would you guys suggest moving the sick guy to a 1 gallon tub I have set up for salt? I don’t have an extra filter or heater but my house is at 77 and I could do 50% water changes daily and just add half the recommended salt back into the water. The other gourami in there...

I’ll put the fish back in the salt dip. I’m thinking of just setting up a bare tank till it clears up especially because I have another one in the tank that isn’t sick yet. The only problem is all I have is a spare tank without a filter or heater. Honestly it’s because all the pet stores are...

I’ve been doing salt dips with API freshwater aquarium salt for 10 minutes twice a day. The gourami is looking better fungus wise but now there’s this big discolored area. Is this just the healing or am I doing something wrong? Also the fungus was originally more brown and is turning more...

Thanks so much! Should I treat the whole tank or just the one fish? The only thing in the tank is amazon sword with a few other plants and some snails. The other gourami doesn’t appear to have anything on him.

It is not missing a fin it’s just how the picture turned out. Is it indeed fungus?

Just got 2 dwarf Gouramis for my brother’s new tank they both were in the same tank in the store. The Flame looks fine the powdered blue fella has this fungus? Or worm? What should I get to treat it?

Me too

Both tanks are missing the labels but have the structure at the top for a fish tank lid so I think I’m gonna go for it

It’s dwarf hairgrass it’s a carpeting plant and I’m hoping I’ll get a nice little lawn in the front.

The only thing is I’ve heard cleaning with dish soap can be dangerous for the fish because it can leave residue that can poison the water.

So I got 2 10 gallons for free. The good, they were free and look like they hold water. They also came with metal tops. The bad is they heals some other pets in them. The one I have no idea what was in it. The other had hissing cockroaches in it. They both had soil and wood chips in them. I know...

I second this. I’ve cut an intake sponge and put it over the intake on the Fluval flex I have. There are small black clips that come with the tank you can fill like I did. If you think it is too much flow you could go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and get an adjustable or smaller pump to replace the...

With this stock maybe 10-15 neons added over time would be good. Under stocking is always better then over stocking and getting a filter rated for a bigger tank is always a good idea.

Hello all, my younger brother has a 10 gallon and wants some kind of catfish (looking at Cory Catfish). He has a fluval 20 filter. Could he keep the Cory catfish in this tank? Are there any other types aside from Asian stone catfish he could keep in a tank this size? He currently has some amazon...

No it sticks on there pretty good and the snail in my tank eats it sometimes I wake up and it’s been totally removed from a leaf

What is this stuff and how do you get rid of it?

The 1 inch per gallon is really more of a very rough rule of thumb and is very dependent on the fish you decide to keep. Even when stocking the tank judging it because it’s a 26 capacity versus a 20 is depends on the fish. Some fish need larger swimming room (at college I’m limited to a 10...

With a tank that big you could put a lot of neon tetras in there. Just add them in small groups over time to let the tanks cycle keep up! My LFS has a ton of different tetras in stock. I wouldn’t suggest special ordering because it costs a lot more and you have to add them all at once which will...
