Thank you so much! It's so obvious now that they have Ich. I only have the two angels in that tank, and both of them have the ich. I'll ask if it's possible to use an ich, fungal, and antibacterial, because the antibacterial I believe would be very beneficial for the open wound.

Could use some advice. A few days ago, charcoal the angelfish developed small white dots, 4 on either side of his head, that were cottony growths. Used Pimafix for 4 days, a melafix 1 day, then pimafix again and the dots seemed to fade, but not disappear. Last night I discovered he had a...

they are rainbowfish. i'd bought 6, and all but two died in my ammonia spike. I had my aquatic frogs, 4 bosmatti, my other angel, and a couple of corydoras catfish die when my water spiked. Would you recommend adding rainbowfish before tetras? or could I add thme after tetras? they're really...

The Harlequin are beautiful, it'd be nice to have a shoaling fish with a small group of them. The apistos, they're cichlids, right? Or are they a kind of ram? Because I know cichlids have a hard time getting together with other cichlids.

My 75 gallon tank is finally healthy. After a year of cycling, then a huge ammonia spike which killed half of my fish, and some hesitancy towards cleaning and changing my tank, I've managed to settle everything out to the point where my fish are thriving, and I've even seen a few baby corydoras...

Yes, my rams were a pare as well. Good point. I think my Gouramis are a male and female, one of the ones that my LFS sold me, had died there, so I only got 2, so instead of 2f 1m i think i got 1m 1g.

It could be, you have two females, or a male and female. I believe I have two females, and they get along perfectly with each other, but they're the guard dogs of the tank, and like to boss the other fish around, though we've had no injuries... All cichlyds have some aggression, but the angels...

If that's the case, then I believe you could do that... I'm not 100% positive, as I"ve not tried it.... Make sure there is enough room for the angels, and not many other fish... as they are Cychlids, and can get very aggressive to other fish if they don't have territory. Mine tent to be that...

I'm not sure what breed they are... I'll have to ask my LFG.

If you only had the angels in the 40 gallon breeder, and a few smaller fish, that would work, but you can't put too much, for fear of over-stocking. Well, my tank, I have a log on one side of the tank, and another, smaller on the other side. Then in the middle I have a smaller plant...

Hello Dr. Who ((I absolutely love that show!)) I have a 55 gallon fish tank, in which I have 2 Pearl Gouramis, and 2 Angelfish. The Gouramis are VERY peaceful, and will hang out together, as well as apart. My angelfish sometimes pick on my Gourami, chasing them, but the Gourami get away, and...

Hello! I have a 60 gallon, 100% cycled tank, and it's FABULOUS!!!! But, I have no clue what to put in it! It's got a large, canister filter for up to a 100 Gallon tank, and lots of live plants. I have 2 angelfish, 2 gourami, 2 SAEs, 1 Bristlenose Pleco and 1 Corydoras Catfish. I also have 2...

Yes. I'm adding a mineral solution and/or salt whenever I put RODI water in, according to the gallons I add.

I'm using RODI water, because we're on well water, and can have high iron.

Okay... I'll have to get more water today to do water changes. I use the API Master test kit. I also bring water samples in to my LFS, and he tests it for free. Multiple times he's tested it while I"m there.

I'm sorry, it was a little under a week before I added fish, and I'd been adding bacteria to it when I started. Last I checked... my Ammonia was around 2.0 ppm. I feed 1-2 times a day. 1 time in the morning, then 1 time at night. I have.. let's see. 14 full grown fish, then... around 40 baby...

Hello! i have a 60 Gallon tank that's been up since December 6th 2011. The tank has a substrate that was pre-seeded (a brand where they sell the gravel wet, with all the beneficial bacteria in it already.) multiple plants, and even some fish in there. For the first two weeks, I ran it without...

Okay thanks! :D I fixed up my 5 Gallon for my nursery, because I found 11 little baby fancy guppies today. :) I'll work towards cycling my 2.5 gallon. Thanks. :D

Did you go through a full cycle of your tank before you added the fish?

The tank I'd be putting him in is a 5 gallon. :) I think the reason it had ammonia in it, was because that was the tank my Betta who died last night was in... :( That tank's been running for a little over a month or two I think... Would it be safe for a new fish to go into?

The tank levels that I would put the new Betta in are as follows: PH 7.2-7.6, closer to 7.6 Ammonia 0.25 (I did a 50% water change for this right after this test, so it's probably closer to 0 now.) Nitrite 0ppm Nitrate 5.0 ppm. How does that sound?

I'm up in NH. I'll check out the tank levels. I was thinking of a single betta male... would that be to small for that?

Well... I'm sad to say it's all over. The battle was lost. The Lord has called my beloved Erne home. I'm thankful that 1. He's no longer suffering, and 2. that I had the time I did with him. Now, I have another question. I have my 2.5 gallon cycling. And the 5 gallon that I had had him in, is...

Oh? So how would I move media from my big filters to the small one? Do I rip it up? *blinks* I moves him to the 5 gallon tank yesterday after doing a water-change for it and moving some other fish around.

Nope. Just the regular, slip in carbon filter... the kind that you get with the kits that you buy of like 20 gallon tanks at Petsmart/Petco. :P However... I have a sponge that I put over the top of the intake nozel in my 20 Gallon.... but... the filter I have for the 2.5 wouldn't work. This is...
