I have noticed that one of my black moor's eyes has been gradually getting smaller for the past week. It's an established 72 gl tank with 10 gl sump. Has been set up for 3 year. With 3 gold fancies in it. 2 orandas and 1 black moor. There is a lot of live plants in the tank. Ammonia and Nitrite...

Thank you for your help! I will try to just submerge the roots in my tank and see if it will make it. Can the roots just float? Or do they need to be in the substrate?

I am new to the world of planted aquariums. I saw this in a local Pet supply store but it did not have a tag and a sales person did not know what it was, it being holiday weekend the person in charge of aquarium section was off. Any ideas? The leaves are pointy.

I think it just appeared, I pay pretty close attention to them, and yesterday was the first time I noticed it.

Dear Jlk I got another issue with one of my goldfish. It looks like a wart growing under his scales by the right pectoral fin. 2 months ago we were out of town and my husband turned the heater off in the house and the person checking on the tank told me that the temperature in the tank got...

I am never able to get the nitrates to 0, and it's somewhat difficult to read the test - the color chart I have 10 and 20 look the same to me and 40and 80 as well. So even after a massive water change, there is some orange color in the test tube :( And to change 50%- 75% in 86 gl, is a lot of...

Dear Jlk, I wanted to give a little update and ask for your advice. No change in my fish, still active and begging for food non-stop, but the red streaks are still there. I have been doing a lot of water changes with RO water and seechem Replenish, and also adding API PH up, as my source...

Jlk, thank you for such detailed and generous answer! My tank is 86g, it's predrilled and the sump is a little under 15g. Awhile back two different unrelated sources told me to use aquarium salts to treat RO water, so I did not question it after and just went with it. 1 tbsp for 5g. So I will...

Hi, I am new to the forum and fairly new and unexperienced at fish keeping. I was wondering if somebody can give me advice about my oranda goldfish 6-7in. It has bloody streaks in its tail. I think it's called septicemia. I use drop kits to test water quality, ammonia and nitrite are at 0...
