Hey, folks! I need some input on how I can wipe out Columnaris in my tank. So far I have 2 fishes showing signs of infection. One is my Gold Dust Molly and the other one is a Silver Tip Tetra. My GD Molly started showing signs about a week or so ago. She had a large cluster of cotton show up...

Please disregard. Edit: Please disregard. My question was answered by searching past threads on AA. It looks like no fishies w/ RCS babies. What can I say, I'm definitely a RCS n00b! :rofl: :facepalm: Mods-Feel free to delete this thread. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey, guys! I try not to post in this section unless it's an emergency, and well, I'm afraid it has gotten to that point. My Molly, Mimi, has been struggling w/ an unknown ailment for the past 2 weeks. She's housed in a 55g community tank and none of my other fishes are showing symptoms of...

Ok, I'm not exactly sure if this is a topic worth posting about or not, but I need some input from the cycle experts as I've never ran into this situation. I have a 10g tank that housed a Betta and 2 ADF's. I lost my Betta a month ago and I ended up moving my 2 ADF's to my 55g tank. I had...

Just like many fishkeepers, I decided to take the plunge and begin a planted tank. My main goal is to keep this as low-tech and low-maintenance as possible. So, here is my plan... Maintenance: Just like many people on here, time to perform weekly tank maintenance can be very limited due to...

I knew things were going too well, now I have 3 fish, (a Molly, Swordtail, and Dwarf Gourami), that are displaying various ailments. :( I have tried researching the symptoms and I’m supplying what I “think” is the cause for the ailments. However, I want to make sure that I’m not misdiagnosing...

Because of this little incident... ...I come here seeking asistance from the AA plant experts. What I would like are low-light plants that require minimal maintenance and add "height" to my background. I know that my options are limited, (especially since it's imparative that the plants are...

I have come over to the "darkside", (only because I heard you amphibian guys had cookies HEE!), and now I own 2 adorable African Dwarf Frogs. :D I just have a quick question, (and it might be a silly one)... do I need to have an airstone in the tank? Seeing as how they, along w/ the Betta that...

The fish shown below is a baby from our original, (RIP), that we had purchased when we got our first batch of fish. There was another baby, but it went MIA. To this day I still don't know what happened to that one and it bothers me because I believe that was the one I saved from the filter. :(...

I currently have 1 male DG in my 55 gallon tank and recently purchased another male that is being held in my QT. I had planned on introducing the new DG after the 30 days was up, but now I'm nervous... It was recently brought to my attention, (per mention in another thread), that having 2 male...

Help Me Choose A Background After recently purchasing a 10 gallon tank that will be used as a quarantine tank I thought that it would be fun to do something creative. However, seeing as how substrate and mass amounts of decor/plants/rocks are not recommended for a QT, that leaves very little...

Recently, I noticed my Neon Tetra had a cotton-like substance on its body, (it looked like a saddle… wrapping around one side, over the back, and around the other side). I assumed that it was fungus, but before I had a chance to begin treatment, I noticed that the cotton had completely...

I'm beginning my 2nd week of treating an Ich outbreak and I just tested my Nitrates... 160ppm!!! I want to do a water change, but I don't want to lose the amount of Ich-Attack that I currently have in my tank. It is doing well at getting rid of the Ich and my fish are returning back to...

This is my 55 gallon freshwater tank. It needs a few more plants in back to hide the air hoses, and maybe some driftwood... but it's pretty much complete. Current Residents: (1) Pleco (1) Red Tail Shark (1) Clown Loach (3) Gold Dust Mollies (1) Orange Molly (4) Neon Tetras (1) Dwarf Gourami...

Hi all... just joined AA today. I figured it was time that I join a forum so I could have a better understanding about my fish and tank maintenance. I purchased a fish tank last Father's Day for my husband and 2 year old son to enjoy. For the mostpart, it has been great, but it has been a...
