I had 4 fish die today after doing another water change so I definitely got something else going on. I'm thinking it may be a heavy metal issue so I'm going tomorrow to get something to neutralize the copper and other heavy metals in the water. I have a water conditioner that eliminates chlorine...

I'm using the master test kit. These are petco fish so it's very likely they are inbreed. I had 2 guppies in the 10 gallon for about 6 months before moving them to the bigger tank. That's one of the fish that died. I have noticed the males being a bit aggressive towards the females. And they...

Water changes! I don't think those chemicals help for removing ammonia, they just mask the problem. They end up just making things worse. Changing a large amount of water to dilute the ammonia is the best thing. And do this daily. In a few days you should have it to a manageable level. I was...

My guppy began doing the same thing this week. I have been reading everything I can about it and think its fish bladder disease. I emailed a breeder and got some advice from him. From my understanding it can be genetics with guppies because of a lot of inbreeding or high nitrates in the tank...

I have a pretty new 55 gallon tank. It's about 3 months old. I used filter media from my established older but smaller tank to cycle it. It had a very short cycle.

I am new here and very new to aquariums. i started with a betta starter kit for my 20 month old daughter. it turned into nothing but a head ache and i'm planning to go bigger soon. I just wanted to indroduce myself:fish2:

dont let the staff in the pet store fool you into thinking a 1 gallon tank for a betta is a good idea and easy to maintain. its not a good gift for a small child. try explaining why her fish has to go to the doctor all the time(death). its way too small for any fish. testing is not a option in...

that funny cause my betta from petco was also named bob.
