I have had this Gold Danio for about a year now and something is very wrong with him. Unfortunately, I didn't notice until just now that he was about to die. The other fish have been picking at his tail today while he was floating at the top. I just now put him in a one gallon tank for the time...

I have been gone since Monday and my husband was in charge of feeding the fish. I'm not sure how this fish got so big while I was gone. Is something wrong or is it about to have some babies? I have a feeling that something is wrong with it because the other fish have white bumps growing on...

I have my 4 goldfish in my pond and I don't know what is wrong with them. They seem to be shedding skin. They didn't eat today which is weird and they seem a little lethargic. I have a fountain filter and an air supply inside the pond. They have been in there about a month now. I've had to treat...

I have two pond size goldfish that I rescued from a really disgusting habitat. They were found in a bucket that had really nasty water inside it. Not sure how long they were living this way. Now they are in a cycled 55 gallon with some other smaller minnow-like goldfish that seems to have a...

I rescued some goldfish that were left behind by some renters and the landlord didn't take care of them for a while. They were found inside a nasty bucket and the water looked like muddy water. I couldn't even see the fish inside it was so nasty. So, I decided to try and help these guys out...

Somehow one of my filter media packets tore and caused all the little carbon stones to fall into my sand. How in the world could I get all of those out? Ive tried picking them out but thats going to take forever. I tried burying them in the sand but they keep making their way up to the top. It...

Ok, so spring is finally here in Arkansas and I want to move my four big goldfish back out in the pond. However, im afraid that I may do something wrong again so I need advice. I took some parameters of the pond and the ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites are 0. But the pond looks horribly...

I've been having trouble with my cichlids fighting and I have been thinking of ways to add in more "caves" for them so they can have more territories. Putting more rocks or cichlid stones is sort of out of my budget right now. So I thought about this idea and was wondering if anyone has tried...

I am very new to plants. I bought these a couple of months ago and they are starting to look sick. I'm not sure if my fish are messing with them or I'm just doing a horrible job of keeping them alive. I'm not even sure what kind of plant they are. I just bought them from Petco and put them in...

Hi everyone! I've had my 4 cichlid's for about 6 or 7 months now and for some reason they just all of a sudden started fighting and acting weird. I have 3 electric yellows and one gray cichlid. Not sure what they are called. They live in a 55 gallon. I was watching them after I did a water...

I noticed this morning one of my pond Goldfish practically dead in the bottom of my ~60 gallon pond. The pond is frozen on top but has a water fall that has been keeping the ice broke around it. I thought he was dead since he wasn't moving and there wasn't anything I could do, so I went to work...

My guppy has a bent tail that is like a 90 degree angle. His tail started this like a week ago and my other fish were picking on him. His tail started to look shredded and it started bending a lot more. I thought he was having fin rot or something so I took him out and put him in a plastic fish...

Ok, before I explain, please know that I admit I messed up and should have known what would happen. Anyways, we had a big ice storm and my 65 or more gallon pond outside froze solid (we haven't invested in a pond heater). So before that happened, I had to hurry and make a trade for a 55 gallon...

Last Thursday I started a ten gallon tank with new sand in it. I took four ornaments from my already cycled 50 gallon tank and put them in my 10 gallon in hopes of cycling it faster. I put tap water into the tank Thursday and let it sit until Sunday to help the sand settle and get the extra...

I recently adopted a black mystery snail from Petco a few weeks ago. The first week he was okay. He moved around the tank during the night and was always in a different spot. I never once seen him moving or stick to the side of the glass. He always stayed on the bottom. Now, these past couple...

I live in Arkansas and they are expecting it to get below freezing tonight. I was curious if my goldfish may become uncomfortable. I have a pond just like the one uploaded. It has a small fountain in it that runs 24/7. I have 4 common goldfish in it which are all about the length of my hand...

I have two electric yellow cichlids-one female and one male is what the fish store owner said. The female is quite larger than the male, pretty much double his size. I have had them for almost a month now. They came home to a 20 gallon tank that has two castles and other decorations in it to...
