if one fish has dropsy, i took him out of the tank as soon as I noticed it, should I worry that the other fish will also get it? treating with salt and antibiotics. anything else I should do? thanks.

got 2 little albino cories (both were same size) from the lfs over 8 months ago. now one cory is much bigger than the other one. is one getting more food (feeding sinking wafers to make sure they get enough to eat since my other fish eat everything on top) OR do females grow larger than...

very new to this so i do appreciate the advice. for water changes, after adding stresscoat+ to a bucket of water, how long do i need to wait before i can add this water to the tank? once it becomes room temperature (several hours) or is it better to wait overnight for water to cure. thanks.

hi everyone: put two honey gouramis and three red zebra danios in a 5 gallon yesterday. danios seems to only stay at the very top of the tank, like they are uncomfortable to go anywhere else in the tank? at feeding time, danios get all the food and there's nothing left for the gouramis...

i saw them at the lfs and they're very pretty pastel colors: pink, blue, orange. is that natural colors or are they similar to glowfish? are they hard to keep? thanks.

Hi: Got a 5 gallon fluval chi with a little betta. He's small, I think a real young one comparing to the others I saw at the fish store. He doesn't like the top light which is too bright for him. So I've been not using the light feature which is a shame since it's so beautiful. Do...

Hi: I got two bronze cories on Saturday. One of them is lethargic and stays in one place. The other cory continuously cleans the gravel and has a big appetite. I think tank parameters are okay since one is very happy. Any suggestions on what to do? What are the signs of a sick cory...
