I have had a betta for about a year and a half in a 5 gallon filtered tank. He has always been very healthy and active. A few weeks a go, he had little white things on his body, which I guessed was ick, so I treated it with "super ick cure" with nitrofurazone. The ick quickly cleared up. But...

I love my betta! I set up a 5 gallon for him with some silk plants, and he frolics all day. The funny thing is that despite all the space in the tank, his favorite thing to do is to travel in circles along the back panel, between the little gaps left by the plants, filter, and thermometer...

Hi everyone:-) I'm hoping someone can help answer a simple question. first, my set up - I've got a five gallon tank all for my little betta:-) It's 16" across, and I'm having a tough time finding a hood for that size. I've found one at petsmart.com, but it has incandescent lighting. Now, I...

hello, I have a 10 gallon freshwater,planted tank with 5 zebra danios and one african dwarf frog. I've been having huge problems with algae for 6 months or so. I can't tell if it's red or brown - kind of rusty colored. I feed sparingly, I gravel vaccuum and do partial water changes every...

Thanks to everyone who is reading this post:) I'm worried about my ivory snail. It is usually a pretty active snail, moving around day and night eating algae and food that falls to the bottom. for the past two days, however, I've found it staying inside of its shell, and isn't even attached to...

i moved this question to the sick fish forum

Hello again:) I had previously written a post because my danios seemed terrified of my new betta, and I wasn't sure if it was a good idea mixing the two...however, the danios are now brave enough to steal his betta bites. So I figure they'll all get used to him being there and stop flipping...

Advice please! I set up an aquarium with no fish for about 3 weeks, and added bacteria from the fish store. I added some plants, but one of them had brown algae (I later realized), which spread - I was told by the fish store that it is really hard to get rid of, so I just got rid of the plants...
