I had to replace a 75 gallon fast, while I was doing that I had my fish from that tank in an otherwise empty 35 gallon cube. By the last day when I was getting the new tank finally settled in they were all fighting. The next day I noticed a few that looked like they had torn fins and tails. I...

I was asking because I didn’t know it would be this big instant disaster. now that I understand that it most definitely will be, obviously, I’m going to replace it.

Thank you so much for your reply! While I can easily forget these things consciously for short periods of time, among the daily grind, I do think it adds to my subconscious anxiety and when I shared this information with my husband, about the gouge in the glass, he was immediately very, very...

I have a 75 gallon and discovered a pretty large gouge with missing glass on one of the corners a few inches up from the bottom. It causes the space that is taken up by other glass between the inner glass and the outer glass to be smaller. Tank was not like this when I bought it. Can I fix this...

UPDATE: store owner looked into it realized that I was correct and went on to say that I can treat the moss with Prezi Quantel I have researched this and have read differently however I will look into it again he is telling me that if I treat the plants, they are safe to use It personally...

I paid about $150 for a lot of moss and around $32 in shipping recently ordered from John Zika, owner of Superior Shrimp & Aquatics. The moss came yesterday and before even opening any of the moss bags I saw an Asian leech moving in it! This is a predatory leech that eats invertebrates like...

Can I use homemade Kanaplex flakes along with Hikari Cyropro and Hikari Ultimate water conditioner in the water? Can I use extra extra virgin olive oil (A tiny amount from a toothpick) to coat the flakes with kanaplex? I have two tanks with a couple fish that have red bacterial infection...

I just got in the mail a product called No Planaria that kills hydra as well. It was recommended to me by a friend. She breeds angelfish and has used it with no harm to the fry.

Did you sanitize the wood?

I read on google (yeah, I know) that 1 gram of panacur c (fenbendazole) to 10 gallons of water will kill the hydra and leave the wrigglers unharmed. Is this true? If not, what can I do instead? The hydra are stationed among the wrigglers so I cannot spot treat them!

I have a sick fish in three different tanks all with different symptoms. My head has been going in circles trying to figure all this out If he does have anchor worms, should I treat the tank that he came from that I just took them out of even if I don’t see signs of anchor worm on the other...

iCloud Photos - Apple iCloud That link goes to the best picture I’ve gotten so far. Is this an anchor worm?

I was planning on starting treatment for skin and body flukes tomorrow afternoon for my tanks. I have two tanks where either gills are pushed out with breathing or rlse scratching and jumping so I figured prazipro for sure would take care of that. Because I didn't know they were ill, I used the...

Just found more of the same small white parasite on the outside of one of my black pinoys..... different tank. I will add the pics, but honestly, they suck just as much as the ones in my original post of my marble girl with the same worms. They also look like the same thing I saw crawling out of...

Prazipro for flukes specifically? I am not that familiar with that medication. Is it safe for glass catfish, mystery snails and neocaridina? My fish mentor recommended coppersafe as they have had a lot of success with it.

They are white things. She also has red streaks on her back near her tail and some reddish spots on her back. Definitely not normal for her. IMG_5011.HEIC IMG_5012.HEIC IMG_5006.HEIC IMG_5014.HEIC IMG_5005.HEIC IMG_5003.HEIC IMG_5008.HEIC IMG_5004.HEIC IMG_5009.HEIC IMG_5015.HEIC...

Thanks, I will do that! What did you think of the tiny worms coming out of the dead snail? Do you think they are the same thing that bored into my fish and the same thing that is on the outside too?

A number of my tanks have parasites... but I am not sure what kind(s). I think they came in on snails possibly. I have two videos. One is of a snail I pulled out of the water, already dead I believe and worms begin crawling out of it. Second video is of two angelfish, each in its own tank. I...

It has been on my list to clean but I have been ill the last few days. I am cleaning it asap tomorrow! I had thought they had eaten everything.... I was wrong. From now on I will put all their food in their glass feeding dish.

I have had good luck with Fluval Tidal. Not much motor sound but you have to keep the tank water up or the waterfall can get loud. I am trying out an electric sponge pump by Aquaneat that I found online on a major retailer. It is very quite and has two sponge "arms", an area for bio media of...
