Hello. I have a 15 gallon tank and I'm having a massive problem with extremely high nitrate levels (over 250mg/L). Currently, my tank runs at about 25-30°C with it being summer here, I have a fan cooler running. I currently have 3 platys, 2 danios, 3 snails and a plec in my tank. I have about 5...

Hi there. I have an old Platy female that has a large growth on her "nose" and it's just getting bigger. Non of the other fish have any growths. Is this cancer and do you think it is painful for her? I couldn't take a clear photo because she is very active and moves around a lot.
