Is this city water? Is this well water? This level of ammonia is unacceptable for you, not just your fish.

I wouldn't wait to start treatment. I'd compromise and kick the temperature up to 85-87° with salt. This might cure the ick. Then you could start with copper sulfite, malachite green, or whatever you choose afterwards, if you need to.

I saw a tank at a doctor's office and I want to copy it. It was a 72 gallon bowfront with what I later found out were Mono Argentus, six of them. At first glance, I was thinking Silver Dollars, but I realized they weren't in a few seconds. I've already been to my LFS, they don't have any in...

I go to Pet****t to buy cat food about every 2-3 weeks. I go through aquatics all the time. There's a 50/50 chance a small fish is on the floor. I try to scoop them up fast and get them back in the tank, unless the clerk has squashed them with the rolling ladder. I'd bet that single store loses...

As they say, your milage may vary.

But the basics are the basics and haven't changed in generations. As to what filter, one might say that is marketing. I personally like the old filters and have had great success with corner and UGF filters, as in no fatalities for more than 1 year. But that's my experience. As they say, your...

http://www.elmersaquarium.com/nav/tanks_and_kits/index.html That's a deal. Seems this particular one is a Perfecto. A LFS had a promotion where he'd take any tank as trade in towards the purchase of a new one. Some examples of trade-in w/o or w/ hood was $3 for 5.5 gallon $10 for 7 gallon...

I know its hard to find good information. Instead of heading out to the web, may I suggest the local library or bookstore. Any book on fishkeeping for beginners from t.f.h. is a good source and there are others. This is the problem I have with the web and the guy at the store, what are their...

I have 8 neon Tetras. They school, sort of. Four were purchased from one store and four were purchased from another about 3 weeks later. At first they didn't school with the other for the first 2-3 weeks. They've been together about 16-17 months right now. There was a fatality shortly after the...

You have fish dying, yet you add them as fast as they die. First, can you explain why? Why would you put more fish at risk if the tank is having a problem? I''m haing a lot of trouble understanding this. The guy at the LFS is an idiot making $7 an hour. In my late teens and early 20's I worked...

As someone who raised mollies, I can tell you they like 80-82°. 86° probably does no harm. My first guess is poor water quality. Do you do weekly or bi-weekly changes? Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate kill fish, especially in warmer weather. You've got a lot of fish in a 29 gallon tank. With more...

Hi, I'm new here, but not new to fish keeping. Lately I've just been running a single 20 gallon tank with a few cheap fish, but I was a serious breeder for about 10 years, between the age of 11 and 21. I don't use the name I used before. I've probably been a member of about 10 forums in the...

I've been a Freshwater fishkeeper since 1971, when I was in the 2nd grade. Dad had a 29 gallon tank with a slate bottom and steel sides. I got my own tank to place on the stand below the 29. I started with a couple of Lyertail "Dalmatian" Mollies. I don't have to tell you what happened next...
