I'm not seeing any obvious disease, only what appears to be water drops on the outside of the bag. If you have other fish in your tank it would be best to quarantine these new additions for 4-6 weeks just to be safe.

Sacrlet badis

It may take time for them to adjust to a new type of food.

Chili rasbora!

Did you add any medication to the tank for the dropsey? Check your tap water for ammonia too. Your water supplier may have changed something. If there's no ammonia in the tap follow the steps to do a fish in cycle.

That's great! Just keep on top of your water changes and you'll be thru your cycle in no time.

Hmm...that is a pickle. How heavily stocked is your tank? With daily wcs, maybe even twice daily could you keep your fish safe if you have to do a fish in cycle after treatment?

There are several types of loaches that stay small enough for a 29. Certainly avoid clown loaches, they get huge. I can link some profile for you tomorrow if you help me remember. I don't have my computer with me right this moment. I think khuli loaches are what you're referring too. You could...

I would add a school of cories or smaller loaches for the bottom and call it done. Mollies can get fairly large and have a heavy bioload so they rank up a lot of tour tank space.

I lay my five against the card to the left of the column I'm reading. This allows me the best lighting for the angle I hold my head when I read. My head tilts to the right when I read or type, to the left when I write. I'm sure that's weird, but that's the way I am.

Jake about moving your filter to a tub or tote and feeding the bs fetish with either pure ammonia or fish food while you treat the tank? If you do stop the filter make sure you have a power head to help keep the water oxygenated.

What may help here is if you would make us a list of what you have in each tank. You may need to do a bit of shuffling but I'm sure we can make it work for you.

Never looked into it, but that makes sense.

A school of khuli's with a gourami!

Live sand in a freshwater tank?

I have a bowfront that was discontinued years ago. I bought it used with no lid. Tried many times to order a replacement and every time the curve has been wrong. Finally I got plexiglass and cut it myself. I guess I didn't have the proper tool because it was extremely difficult to cut. It left a...

Have you looked at Odessa Barbs? How about Congo tetras? Lots of schooling fish you can look at, but more importantly, if you are buying them locally, what is available in stores?

You can speed up your cycle by squeezing some of the gunk out of the 30 gallon's filter in to the new tank.

+1, aggression would cause a major issue in such a small tank. A school of Kuhli loaches would be fun to the gourami.

It sounds like your lights being on so much caused an algae outbreak. The light being broken is a plus right now. 50% water changes every couple days, make sure your tank is not in direct sunlight, and cut back on your feedings. That should starve the algae and clear up your tank. You should...

Yes, bettas jump. I think nearly all fish do, but some are worse about it than others.

Like I said, it will all depend on how the law is worded. Will it state they are illegal to purchase, own, or breed? If it says own or breed then obviously not having them is the only real option. If it is illegal to purchase them, but you may keep the ones that you already own. You should still...

They should be able to do option 1. Option 2 would give way too much opportunity for the betta to jump out.

Some laws just need to be repealed. I could go on and on about stupid laws, but I won't. As for the shrimp issue, it really does depend on how it's worded when and if it's passed.

Plecos poop a LOT! Tetras are much lower bioload so you can have more of them by only having one gourami. I would stick to just one type of tetra tho. A large school looks much more impressive than two smaller schools.
