So, I've had my little Betta, Samurai, since June. He has moved tanks twice and never with a problem. He's been in a 20 gallon tall tank for months. He patrols the top where he has a floating Betta log, and wistera on the bottom. Now, he lives with 3 Cory Cats, 3 Oto cats, and 4 snails. All...

So, today I took apart my goldfishes canister filter to find two snails and a TON on eggs and teeny tiny babies. I guess the first question would be, now that I have removed the eggs, cleaned and dried the filter (while keeping the media in a bucket of tank water), is it going to be ok if some...

Ok, so after reading the sticky here showing a large telescope eye, and after much research saying goldfishes need a larger aquarium, I decided to move some fish to my friends parents 8,000 gallon pond as well as their 800 gallon pond. Now, this pond is cycled and the water parameters are all...

My Betta, D.W. has always been fairly, active let's say. Flaring at everything from his plants and filter, to the snail and me. He swam like a nut job all day and gobbled up the food I gave him. He seemed very happy and healthy. I do a water change every week, usually 25% but sometimes 30%...

I am beginning to question my Betta's ability to live with anything. I have a few, 21, baby snails that came from plants (6 from a live bearer) and am raising them to give them to some of my friends who have ponds and aquariums. Now, D.W. (the devil Betta) lived peacefully with a nerite and...

I had to recently move some fish into a second established tank due to a stand problem where the stand is breaking. We had to quickly drain the tank and move the fish. Now, these fish have lived together before with no issues. This morning, 2 of my fantails, one Oranda, and one weensie Black...

Ok, so I am going to venture into making my own goldfish food. I have a done a lot of research, but I still have a few concerns. I was wondering, when it comes to mixing the ingredients together, I plan on using spinach, peas, a little bit of shrimp (very little), carrots, and broccoli. My...

I bought a mystery snail? (unless this is one of the apple snails), and we named him Albert. He seems to be an over all healthy snail, and he really books it when he moves. The other day I was watching him, and he had a .... i want to say tuber-cle? tentacle? coming from under his shell...

My cow-workers got me 2 goldfish for my birthday 2 weeks ago. Now, they are not very well read on how to find a healthy goldfish and I am worried about one of the two they picked up. They got me a black moor and a calico fantail. Aside from some strange habit of trying to eat my freckles...

Hello! I am new to this forum and have been keeping my aquarium/s for roughly 4 months. In that time I have learned hard lessons about where to buy fish, how to set up a tank and all that good stuff. When my boyfriend and I got out first two fish, Zombie and Widget, calico fantails from...
