I have two comet goldfish in a 75 Gallon tank, the one seems to like swimming against the current from my powerhead and he eats all the air bubbles the pump draws in. I'm almost certain this is the cause of his swim bladder issue but i'm a little unsure how to fix the issue. Any advice or...

Hey haven't been on here in awhile just wanted to let anyone know who was concerned that all my fish made it and the ich is finally gone from the tank :) turning the heat up in the tank combine with some ich medication and aquarium salt really helped do the trick. I kept the heat cranked up to...

Well spots seem to be reducing so in that sense things are getting better however the smaller goldfish has become aggressive and is nipping constantly and the bigger one. I made a divider using plastic mesh with some fishing line to seperate them for the time being. Could this sudden aggression...

Tank is up around 85 degrees now ive been slowly increasing the temp. The infected gold fish is showing signs of clamped fins and erractic swimming. Alot of brushing on the ground and some scale loss. Im really worried about this guy now :( it seems to have spread to the other goldfish ive...

Thank you for all the advice i will look into adding another airstone as i only have the one as added airation and ill hold off on the salt for now, i may add it after the medication has cleared up the tank to aid in fin gworth seeing *** i dont have an real plants to worry about, as for inverts...

Recently noticed an outbreak of ich in my tank :( ive been reading online the different methods for treating ich and ive come across a few, i am currently turning the heat up in my tank it is recommended to heat just above 86 F and to add aquarium salt. However i did a 30% water change added...

Hello, so i recently moved into my apartment up at school and tested my tap water which has an unusually high ammonia content at between .5 and 1 ppm so my question is that if i am cycling a new 55g tank (fishless cycle of course:)). Will that water be okay to use for water changes in an...

I understand the need a lot space, but under these circumstances i do not have the money or space to maintain a tank that large but and looking to upgrade down the road. But as far as a tank mate goes do you have any recomendations?

So I currently have a Sarasa Comet in a 10 Gal tank and am setting up and cycling a 55 gal tank also to move him too. Would like to get one maybe 2 tanks mates (I know that is pushing it a bit but i am willing to put in the effort to do very frequent water changes to keep the bio load stable)...

I could buy a third in case one of them does go down then i could potentially just swap the filter media between the two would that be an okay thing to do?

Currently i am using a basic aqueon water condition that came with the tank but i will be sure to go pick up some prime today, how often should i do these larger water changes once a week or more frequent

So I recently purchased a 55 gallon tank off of craigslist rinsed it out with warm water and am eager to set it up. I have a sarasa comet currently in a 10 gallon tank for the last month and want to set this up so he has some more room. I bought 2 aqueon quit flow 30 filters and was wondering if...

Did another 50% water change am going to wait awhile before testing the water parameters again. He seemed to perk right up after and is swimming around i will keep an eye on him, but thank you:)
