He said to change water every week and half to two weeks...change filter monthly.. Not weekly Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

He didn't tell me the ammonia all he said was it was in the perfect spot. Water couldn't be any cleaner Said maybe by me doing PWC weekly and changing carbon filter same time is now stressing him out even tho I've been doing that Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Said before PWC...6.2. After 6.4 But he said if you was used to the pH at a low pH then just leave it because there was no spike in the pH or ammonia to have stressed him out Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

The guy at Petland said my water was perfect so he didn't know what cause my fish to be stressed anything could have stressed him but he definitely had the swim bladder from what I told him in person and the photos I sent you. My filter has a white bag of carbon and a black mesh thing in front...

Hey I just went to Petland and the pet store guy said that my water was in perfect condition the pH went up after I did my partial water change he said he's probably just stressed out right now that he's sitting on the bottom..he should pull through and add half the amount of suggested salt...

Now the fat part looked Burgundy... Maybe the pellets that made him constipated Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have not dosed salt yet... I was just about to test water with the paper strips since that's all I have & bring water to be tested at pet land now. He's just sitting on bottom past 2 hours not moving fins. Once and a while he's moving them. Am I adding the aquariam salt to the new water...

Changing carbon filter weekly with PWC in 20 gallon long fancy goldfish tank. Is this too often??? The filter looks dirty... I Also wipe the inside of the tank every time to wipe a way the slime. Is that poop? Or good bacteria??? Black moor isn't doing well. Thread ( black moor problem, please...

I really can't express all the help you have given me thus far. I will now do a PWC... Add the aquarium salt hope bitner turns around. He's a strong fish I'll give him that!!! Beat through catching ich. Then got ich and a cut in his side. Pulled through both of those. Swim bladder can't kill him...

Honestly, is it better that he is just resting on the bottom ? Or worse? Because when my old red cap used to stay at top them bottom.. Lady said it was better on bottom meaning its breathing OK... Anyway it died that night :( .. Later learned it was ich and fin rot. She came sick from the pet...
