    Tiger Barb sinking on the bottom of tank!

    Thanks for the reply! And I indeed put him alone, fin nipping the poor little guy was so cruel so I took him to my other tank so he could be alone. The article was helpful too, the guy was having the same problem as I was with the fish. So right now, I"ll be doing the water changes as the answer...

    Black Moors and Eye Pop?

    Hi, I've had 2 blackmoors goldfish in my tank for the last 3 months along with 2 fantails. One of my blackmoor's eyes looks a little different from the other (which I assume is the one with normal looking eyes because of all the pictures of normal black moors on the internet.) I'm just wondering...

    Blackmoor ... tumor?

    I was browsing youtube for Blackmoors and found this video: YouTube - Black Moor Goldfish - Cancer? what's really happening to it? is it really an uncurable cancer? I'm just worried because I have some blackmoors and would really know what to do when this happens.

    Seachem Prime

    Seachem Prime

    Ah, well, I would add some salt in... but one of the fish I own is scaleless, and salt would burn its skin, I don't know if adding a little would be just 3 or 4 grain of salt (yep, they're big pieces compare to the kitchen salt size which is usually the size they sell aquarium salt in) but I...

    Seachem Prime

    Hum... alright, I did another 50% water change just this afternoon adding Prime 2x the doses. The ammonia didn't go down as much but it was around .5 (it was like...2 before lolz.) I'm afraid to overdose it since I heard it'd be really hard for oxygen to get through and the fish will have a very...

    Seachem Prime

    I just bought Prime and made a quick 50% water change to my 10 gal using the product. Before this, the ammonia read 4 and I got scared (total newbie, when I got the fish all they told me was that I needed to give it one day for the filter to "clean" the bacteria in the aquarium), so after the...
