Here's some pics of her tonight. She's getting out and about a bit more, but the gap under her gills is concerning me. Looks like she's a little white around her gills as well.
Does anyone have any ideas? Really don't want to lose her. She came from my stepson's aquarium as a fry.

BBRadbury, just an update. I got home last night, and the platy in question was actually swimming around a bit towards the top of the aquarium. However, she also began flashing on some of the items in the aquarium. I examined her and am not really seeing anything on her. Very familiar with...
I will certainly give the plants a try. I just added a new light last Friday in an effort to go with a planted setup. Only added a new light and a couple of plants. My LFS was almost out, so I have to wait for more plants to arrive this week.
I've already got the salt in there, so I'll...
I stay on top of my water changes. Every Saturday I do one, though it's likely about 40-50% and not 60. Like I said above though, I'm not reading any ammonia or nitrites.

Hello all. I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm an experienced aquarist, but I've been lucky and haven't dealt with sick fish much. However, my platy has been staying almost exclusively at the bottom of the aquarium for several weeks now. She eats on occasion, but does not come up to do...
I have one myself right now. While I think it works ok, I'm not in love with it and am thinking of making a change. It doesn't keep my water as clear as I'd like, even though I don't overfeed and clean the filter out regularly. I also hate how much room it takes up in my 45 gallon. Finally...
I think it's just on the one side. In fact, that line didn't appear until this morning. It was just the grayish coloring and the weird pectoral fin.

Hey everyone. If I could get help, I would appreciate it. I've used the template to provide info. Will also include a picture.
1~What type of fish is afflicted? In addition, please describe what is wrong with the fish to the best of your ability (i.e. cotton like growth, bloated, etc.)...
So my step son is taking the last of his fish with him to college this weekend, meaning that I will have a 10 gallon aquarium that I could possibly us as a QT/hospital tank. My question though is what do I keep in there in order to keep the BB alive? Never had one before but since I'm at the...

I will agree with you on employee knowledge. It's very frustrating walking in knowing that I know more about the fish than probably all the employees combined :) Especially when you find a fish you've not heard of before and have questions about it.
