    Help: Fish with curved spine?

    I did move it to another container yesterday. The fish seems fine now. It doesn't has that curved body now and is straight. I will check if it eats and if not, I'll trying feeding it a pea. Thanks for the help!

    Help: Fish with curved spine?

    Hey everyone, I have had platys for about a year now. Today morning, while feeding, I noticed one of them to be bent and at the top of the tank. He seems not to be eating and I am worried that he'll recover. Also a quick google search has now worried that this might be an indicator of some...

    Help me ID these please

    But I thought they are good to have in the aquarium? IF they are so bad, what's the best way to get rid of these?

    Help me ID these please

    One more thing. I have noticed that the size of my java moss has reduced to half of what it was before. Could this be due to these snails? A quick google search told me that these might eat plants if left with no other choice for food

    Help me ID these please

    Oh. I do have some algae in my tank. I guess it would be wiser for now to leave them be if they are not harmful

    Help me ID these please

    I've been at college for a few months and my mom has been taking care of my fish. I am home now, and I found some things I don't like to see. I had bought some java moss and introduced it into the tank before leaving. I think I might have let some stuff hitchhike its way into my tank. So now...

    Schooling Fish with Angelfish

    I had a school of 6 serpae tetras with 4 angels and 4 pearl gouramis. Never had an issue with one another. I guess it depends on the individual fish. I don't know about rainbows but I think tetras should work. As long as they are fast enough and don't easily fit into the mouth of other fish, I...

    What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

    I had bought some Ceratopteris Thalictroides recently. After planting it, I had some leaves that were cut off, probably during shipping. I had read somewhere that this plant grows insanely fast and it is like a weed. So, I sort of just let them float around in the tank, to see what happens...

    Upgrading to a 125 Gallon Tank

    The Cories are a lovely addition to any compatible tank. They have a great personality. Very active and crazy fish. I'm sure you would love a few of those.

    Upgrading to a 125 Gallon Tank

    I have a sand bottom tank that has been running for a year and a half now. Never had those air pockets and I don't even have any snails. So, I wouldn't worry about it at this stage. Adding a bit of powdered fish food might be useful too. I used this when I cycled my tank to provide the micro...

    Worms id

    But I thought detritus worms are white?. These are reddish. Also, are they harmful? Should I remove them or leave them be? I have a 40 gal tank and 10W leds running for about 11-12 hours a day. Could the sudden change from no lights to this have caused the growth of diatoms? I am thinking of...

    Worms id

    I found a few worms wiggling in my tank's sand bottom. They are reddish, very thin and have made tunnel-like paths for them. I am totally grossed by them. They definitely weren't there a week ago. I am attaching a picture and a video of them. Please help me id them and kill them if they are...

    Bloating/bacterial infection?

    I read about this online and many pages had one thing in common. That it is mostly incurable and the fish will die.
