Sorry for the blurry photos, but my molly was moving too much. I posted a while back that a few of my fish had crashed to the bottom and were just staying there. They are still doing it. It's a livebearer 29gal tank with mollies, platies, and swordtails. They seem thinner than usual and now my...

Hi guys, just a little quick info: my 29 gallon tank has 3 sailfin mollies, 3 koi swordtails, 5 panda platys, 1 painted platy, 3 blue platies, and a mystery snail. Last night I did about a 20% water change that I do about once a week. This time I ended up waiting two weeks because I was busy...

Do you know how old/how large livebearers have to be before they are of breeding age?

I've heard of cases where mollies and guppies interbreed, but can they also interbreed with platys and swordtails? Which ones are compatible?

Thank you for your input, guys! I still have a healthy looking molly and two guppies in there, so maybe just letting them be for a few weeks to a month while doing weekly water changes will be enough to cycle it?

It's strange, because I have been testing the tank frequently with a liquid kit and the readings all come back as 0ppm... Hmm.

Thank you for your input! How many fish would you suggest I cycle with if I have to start over and for how long?

I've had 2-3 more fish go belly up since this post :( The water quality and temperature is fine! I really don't know what it could be anymore, since none are demonstrating outward signs of illness. Maybe I'll just chalk it up to bad quality fish from Petsmart and leave it at that.

There are no LFS near me in Clarksville, TN :(

I'm using a liquid test kit and I test about once a week. Tank's been up for six weeks and many of the fish have died.

I do a 25-30% water change every two to three days and I was using Aqua safe water but when I ran out of that I bought Jungle start right.

Freshwater for sure

1~What type of fish is afflicted? In addition, please describe what is wrong with the fish to the best of your ability (i.e. cotton like growth, bloated, etc.). 3 guppies, 5 mollies, 4 emerald eye rasboras. They are all either hiding, resting at the surface, laying on the bottom sometimes, or...

After having a TERRIBLE few weeks as a result of purchasing sickly Petsmart fish, I have vowed to NEVER buy from there again. Anyone have any good online fish stores? Or know of any reputable fish stores around Nashville TN? I've followed aquariumfish.net for a long time now and am tempted to...

My aunt gave it to me, it's probably at least two years old.

Nitrite and ammonia are 0ppm. I don't see a nitrate bottle in my kit (which was inherited).

Hi guys, I'm new to the community. I have a 29 gallon tank with a handful of balloon mollies, one surviving sailfin molly, three guppies, and two surviving emerald eye rasboras. I have kept tanks since I was 12 and this is my first tank in several years. I bought all the fish from Petsmart and...
