    YUCK!

    Oh! Yes, it looks like a nest or mold. It's on the glass. It was slimy when I took it off. I was afraid it would hurt my fish so I removed it. They are apple snails in my tank.

    Buying Fish

    So I made the mistake of ordering from liveaquariablue.com. They sent me the wrong variety of platys (sunburst instead of painted) which are mostly male and a gromai that died with a fungal infection the next day. The platys are healthy and vibrant, but still, I will not be ordering from them...

    Community tank white spots on tail fin

    How often can one use prime? Do you agree that tetra fungus guard will work and not kill anything I have in my tank?

    Community tank white spots on tail fin

    I have a 50 gallon planted tank housing Pleco, mollies, platies, tetra, gourmais, guppies, snail, & shrimp. The mollies and some platies have developed little white spots on their tails. Parameters are normal. I've been cleaning gravel every 5-7 days with a 40% pwc. Any advice on treating them?

    I am planning on adding a blue lobster and some shrimp to my aquarium next week. What does everyone feed their little guys?

    Fish deaths

    The fish deaths stopped. I think I just bought them from a not so great store. I won't be going back. The fuzzy film appeared postmortem. I did a 60% water change with the gravel filter tool. Fish seem to be happy and healthy. Thanks for the replies!

    Fish deaths

    That could be a mini cycle but I thought that the nitrate levels are ok as long as they are under 20. I didn't think platies and guppies would be that sensitive to fluctuation.

    Fish deaths

    The parameters are good: pH 7.6, ammonia .25, nitrite 0, nitrate 5. No visible algae water is treated with prime after water changes. Could it be stress from being shipped? I just got these fish two days ago.

    Fish deaths

    I have had a couple live bearers die since yesterday and they are getting this weird opaque fuzzy film around them. What is that?
