Tap water results Just tested my tap water now and the results are 0. There is no food waste or general dead things in the tank so I'm not sure why its going to lethal stages so quickly. I just know he is going to die a unpleasant death and I cannot do anything because it goes from 0 - max...

Hey I have a 7G tank with only 1 betta fish My fish tank Ammonia levels will not decrease unless I do a 100% water change. Also my Ammonia goes from 0 to dark green 8 levels in just 8 hours! I can't keep doing 100% water changes its stressing my fish out and very time consuming. What do I...

Hey Well it seems you and everyone else believes here its a some sort of illness and not the water. So changing the water in my eyes wouldn't do anything and you could risk cross contamination. I would treat for the fish with medicine you believe is correct according to the symtoms and maybe...

I have a 28L Tank heated to 24C. My stock is only one male Betta. I'm wanting to make the tank look a little more stock. Now, Would this make the betta less happy than he is now? (Even if they fish are compatible) Or would it like some company? or just indifferent. Secondly what fish could i...

Resting? Betta's love a place to sit and rest near the water surface. Maybe he is trying to figure out a way to rest on the heater. You definitely should buy a Banna leaf hammock from amazon. (most pet stores dont sell them)

Hey, I recently bought my first fish. A white male Elephant Ear Betta. About 30 minutes after i added him into my tank i noticed one of his eyes was cloudy. I'm not sure if he arrived like that. My tank has not been cycled. But i've done ammonia tests and they're still on 0. My tank is 7G...

I'm itching to buy a fish for my 28L Tank. But I'm waiting on my water to become safe. The staff in my local Pets at Home told me to cycle my tank with a hardy fish and strongly recommended i didn't do a fishless cycle. Now i don't really want to harm a fish so how can i cycle my tank faster...

Update Update: My stocking plans have changed now that i have to buy a heater due to my house not even be able to get the water to room tempature. It's sitting at around 10 Degress C. So I'm going to stock my tank with a single Betta or somthing similar. Thanks for the advice about the...
