He's swimming fine. Had a problem with tumors but was praying for none near the eyes. I have the salt but I'm worried that the ph change will kill him since I'm wasn't sure what it is. I did Maracyn (Since I've heard it's relatively safe) when I first noticed the changes a couple months ago...

Ye that’s what I thought I just don’t know how to take care of it.

They say it will look like a telescope goldfish with popeye but instead there’s a swelling in the back of the eye like tumor. I’ve done a treatment for Popeye and it did nothing. His eye also isn’t milky white at all. The front isn’t really swollen either just with a white ring. Idk what this is...

Dang that was fast. Thanks for the info! My filter leaked once but I had it placed in a bucket so things were fine. Since that day, I've always been paranoid, so thanks for the quick reply to calm my nerves.

There's a red lever on the filter that helps lock it into place. The lever is slotting into place fine but it can now move fully up and down and feels a little looser when doing it. I just get the feeling it never did that before, and I'd rather ask a dumb question then flood my home. Btw the...

Sorry I can’t get anything better

I don’t have my testing supplies with me at the moment. I’ve got a trip soon and was going about some final water changes.One of my goldfish has got something on his eye. No idea what it is. A few months back I was keeping a close eye to see if it got worse but it was fine. I don’t want to say...

Don't know if anyone is still here, but I have an update. Sorry I didn't get a picture, but the fish is eating normally and acting fine. Perhaps, the water quality had degraded. I did a five gallon water change the day after he jumped. If so, I'd think that was strange, but nvm. I'm just glad...

I'll get a photo when the lights are on

Okay, I can do more water changes.

I have 2 of my goldfish in a 45-gallon aquarium. Today, I had been coming back from vacation and fed them after 4 days. Afterwards, I realized that one had jumped. On Tuesday, I did a 10-gallon water change. I don't think that the water quality would've deteriorated this much. Also, now the bump...

Thanks for the hope. I know that sometimes we have to make sacrifices, but the stress got too much this time.

Yeah, I'll try that. I live in Nashville and I know of one LFS in the area. I don't think we have any organized community of hobbyists to reach out to either. It's a good LFS in my area, but like I said above the fish would probably need some special care as it is pretty blind.

I have currently 3 7-year-old goldfish. At this point in time, I don't know If can care for one of them. In past threads I explained that they bear scars from the past and are sick with stuff I've time and time again tried to cure. One of them is basically blind and was withering away with the...

It’s about a year old and it’s filled with a current occupant. I should’ve notice it sooner but being at the bottom in the back I didn’t. The occupant is one goldfish. I’m hoping to rehome them as I need to focus on scholl.

There seem to be a cluster of bubbles in the Silicone near the bottom. I’ve never had a problem with stuff like this but I’ve heard horror stories of tanks leaking. It’s a 30g This is at the bottom of the tank

This is a better picture of the fish in full light

Thanks! I‘be been fortunate not to have to deal with dropsy. From what I’ve seen there is no apparent pine coning . I’ll continue to monitor behavior but I think he’s fine. Thanks! I‘be been fortunate not to have to deal with dropsy. From what I’ve seen there is no apparent pine coning. I’ll...

The first fish is in a quarantine tank. He’s being treated currently with aquarium salt. 1 taboo for every 3 gallons. However today I had ammonia at 0.25. My tank was doing well for the first week (I tested and everything was fine) but he’s half blind so some food started to rot. I did a 50%...

Livebearers are always fun.
