    Molly with a growth?

    Okay, new development - all the fins on her belly are frayed and look about half the length they were. What the heck is going on? She seems so sad :(

    Molly with a growth?

    The lump itself looks like a tumor, but the caked stuff around it looks like frayed cotton. Do you think it advisable to remove her from the tank?

    Molly with a growth?

    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.). One of my two adult calico mollies seems to have some sort of fungus or growth on her belly fins (sorry, dunno exact terms). She's...

    Hey there everyone! question re: filters

    My tank is doing pretty well at this point. I've lost a couple, gained a couple, but all in all the majority of the group is doing fantastically. I have made one major change - I moved the feeder to a smaller tank. I was suspecting (based on his eating habits of pushing the other fish out of...

    Just can't cut the ammonia... argh!

    Yeah, back in the beginning it tested at zero. Strange, isn't it? Well, I'll keep on top of the PWCs and let ya know if anything significant happens.

    Just can't cut the ammonia... argh!

    Hey there! Been busy with life-stuff... lining up a job, working on my website, enrolling my girl in preschool, blah blah blah :) My tap is zero for ammonia, and I use the Aquarium Pharmaceuticals testing sets. I'm staying on top of the PWCs. I stopped by my LFS and talked to that guy...

    Just can't cut the ammonia... argh!

    I've been feeding them up to 3 times a day (small amounts each time) because when I got the Pandas, they were still getting used to the tank and not coming out to eat fast enough before the rest of the tank ate all the food. I'm down to twice daily, still smaller amounts. I do feed enough for...

    Just can't cut the ammonia... argh!

    Hey all! I am still reading higher ammonia levels and I'm not quite sure what to do about it. They seem to be between .5 and 1.5 ppm (usually around 1, the 1.5 was only once) and if it's as high as 1 I do a 30-40% PWC. I typically do this every 2 to 3 days. I have never shown a Nitrite...

    New Jersey? Where do you get your fish/supplies?

    They are in Denville, and yes, he has SW fish. If you give me a highway to start from, I can give you very good directions.

    How to make algae...?

    I think I had read here once that you can cultivate your own algae by putting some rocks in a container of water and leaving them alone for a while. I have a little bit of brown algae that is being cleaned up by my pleco, so I wanted to treat him (her?) to a fresh batch every now and then. Is...
