    Sail fin Molly has a huge eye....popeye?!

    I'm extremely pleased to report that 'Popeye' (his oh so original nickname now) is officially no longer suffering with popeye. I'm so surprised his eye is back to normal. I really thought it was beyond repair but hey....I'm very pleased with the results. Thank you so much again for your help...

    Oh great! Thank you so much for your info! I'm guessing I have a male then! He looked quite alien like!! Lots of spiky bits!! Never seen one like it before so thank you for clearing that mystery up for me! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

    Pleco ID?!

    Hi all! I bought a tank off a lady approx mid Feb and was told there was a Pleco in the tank but seems to hide in the ship he has! I have only seen his fins as he's always in his ship....BUT tonight I managed to get a glimpse of him! Wasn't intentional but suddenly spotted something odd with a...

    Sail fin Molly has a huge eye....popeye?!

    Thank you so much. Have asked my brother to grab me some salt first thing as I'm at work. I just hope it hasn't gone too far. Pretty concerned he may lose his eye! Thanks again! You've been a superstar! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

    Sail fin Molly has a huge eye....popeye?!

    Homedog98 - thank you so much for responding!! I've got 5 other mollies and 3 zebra danios. No sign of any of the others being ill. I'm in the UK so can't get any aquarium salt until tomorrow morning :( can't believe it's gotten so bad. Have taken advice from websites but doesn't seem to...

    Sail fin Molly has a huge eye....popeye?!

    I have had a look on Internet as no response on here and a lot of people have said that water changes and leaving fish in a tank alone (stop others pecking at it) is the best cure if popeye. Almost 10 days later and it's looking a lot worse :( Please see pics....can anyone suggest any specific...

    Sail fin Molly has a huge eye....popeye?!

    Hi all! I have a Sail Fin Molly that usually likes to show he is boss around the tank but has been hiding a lot over the weekend. I managed to get a glimpse of him tonight and his left eye is huge!! It looks like a clear bubble around his eye. Is this signs of popeye? Ammonia - 0 Nitrite - 0...

    135 L (34 US gallons I think?!) tank...what can I have!?

    Thanks for the advice! I'm going to speak to one of my friends who owns an aquatic store and see if he can re-home any or if can do any networking and find them new homes for me. I'm going to look at it tonight so we will see! Do you think it's fair to make an offer on the tank purely because...

    Fluval Roma 240L

    Hi all! Have been thinking about upgrading my tank. Currently have a Aqua One Evo 70 set up which is a 135L tank. It's going well and looks nice in my apartment but tempted to try cichlids. I was advised to get a bigger tank as my 135L wouldn't be suitable for them and this one I have found is...

    135 L (34 US gallons I think?!) tank...what can I have!?

    Hi all! I've been having a look around and have found a Fluval 240 for sale very locally! This is apparently equivalent to 63 US gallons! Would this be more suitable for Cichlds?! I don't have room in my apartment for both tanks so my beautiful 135L would have to go. Does anyone have any...

    135 L (34 US gallons I think?!) tank...what can I have!?

    Hmmm just been doing some more homework on the Kribs. Would they possibly live quite happily in my already established community?! I have neon tetras, zebra danios, mollies and rasboras. I presumed that if I bought some Kribs then I would have to have a Cichlid only tank?! I just read some...

    135 L (34 US gallons I think?!) tank...what can I have!?

    I'm guessing the Kribs can't mix with the convicts?! Due to size and aggression from the convicts?! Is there anything relatively colourful I could put in with the Kribs? If not, how many Kribs would you suggest? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium
