    My beautiful crowntail betta (video)

    I rescued a male crowntail betta from Walmart, his fins were torn for some reason and I thought I'd share how happy he is in his new tank! He's been in the tank now for about 3 months.

    Too much for betta?

    I recently purchased a beautiful crowntail male betta and added him to my 29 gallon community. What's bothering me about it now is that he is getting picked on by my (single) angelfish and the bubbler system seems to be too much for him. I've had other bettas before in the same tank and they...

    Do I need more fish?

    I have a 29 gallon. Right now there's a 5 inch long pleco, full grown male angelfish, one male betta, and three females dalmation mollies. The male angelfish seems like he wants a companion or more--he just seems lonely.

    What kind of fish work well with angelfish?

    I have an adult male angelfish. First question-- would it be okay to introduce younger angels (like, 4-5 of them?) Is there a good chance he would get really aggressive towards them, or is there a safer way to do this? 2nd question--if not other angels, what goes well with angelfish? I also...

    Can Maracyn-two control fungus?

    I got some maracyn-two from the LFS and now I think my fish have fungus. Will it still treat that?

    Angelfish in serious condition! Help!!

    I have a 29 gallon and a 10 gallon tank. About 2 weeks, ago, I put two of my angelfish in my 10 gallon tank so that my other 2 angelfish could protect their eggs that they layed with no one else interferring. After a day the eggs were eaten so I put the two angelfish back in the 29 gallon...

    Should I get discus?

    I've heard they're hard to raise and are really picky about water and what to be fed. And are angelfish good tankmates for them? I have four angelfish right now and two are a pair and lay eggs a lot.

    Two more questions...angelfish wigglers??

    I have two questions. Will angelfish wigglers still live if they fall down to the tank bottom? I have a gravel bottom. I checked today and all of the wigglers that were layed on the heater dropped. So, will they still hatch? And another question. When looking really closely at one side of my...

    Angelfish eggs...are they fertile?

    I noticed two of my angelfish layed eggs on my heater two days ago so I've separated the eggs from the rest of the tank (a 29 gallon) with a divider. Another pair has layed eggs before but they all turned infertile (white) within a day and a half. With the eggs I have now, over a period of two...

    How to get rid of fish?

    I got my 29 gallon aquarium last Christmas and it's doing great. The day after I got it my mom's friend called her and asked if I could take her fish because she didn't want them anymore (a few white tetras and an orange gourami). They're all still doing fine. I've added with them a few...

    Betta fins won't grow back...

    Okay, so one of my betta's got in a fight I'm guessing a couple months ago and ended up with hardly any fins to move around. Well, he has grown some back except for the fins near his butt, where he would normally poop. But those fins won't grow back, and I don't know what to do...is he sick? Thanks.

    Powder Blue Gourami has bump..?

    I came back from a vacation trip that lasted 5 days long to discover that one of my gourami's has an enlarged bump on his side. I'll try to post a picture when I can get ahold of a camera, but wanted to know if anyone knew what is going on.

    How could this have happened?? Totally different fish.

    Is it possible that two unalike fish (such as a long finned tetra and a orange molly or something of that sort) have babies? Or does a molly just have babies with no fertilization? Are there fish like that? So, I received an aquarium with three fish in it--a baby pleco, (I think) a long...

    Angelfish layed eggs....again!

    So, this is the second time my angelfish have layed eggs. Since they lasted a couple days the first time since they were eaten, I waited until the morning when I was to separate them from the rest of the tank, but they were all gone in the morning. :| So, does this mean that my angelfish are...

    Angelfish eggs!

    So, I woke up yesterday morning with an artificial leaf full of angelfish eggs! I have 3 angelfish, two striped grey ones and one black colored one. I noticed that one angel was looking a little chubby for a week or so before this. So, since I have a community tank, I bought a divider and it...

    Betta breeding? Help!

    I recently bought 3 beautiful betta girls for my betta male. A couple questions! I was told at the petstore that the male needs 3 females. Is this true? And why is this? If breeding occurs, will he mate with just one or all of them? Also, I've already introduced them, keeping them...

    Fish with ich...how many drops?

    So, my pleco and one of my angelfish have ich. I went to Walmart and got some ich drops. It says to drop in 5 mL for every 10 gallons, and do this every 3 days. So, how many drops is this? Thanks everyone!

    Weird angelfish behavior....dieing? help!

    I bought 3 angelfish from Petsmart a couple days ago and did a pwc before I got them so the tank was clean. They have been fine these couple days, and I have been raising the temperature a bit because my pleco has developed a case of ich, but the temp right now is at about 78 degrees F. The...

    So, my pleco has ich.

    My tank has been cycling for about a month and a half, and my pleco has developed a case of ich. So, what are the best suggestions for ridding the tank of ich? (I have a 29 gallon). Also keep in mind that I do not have a QT. The rest of my tank inhabitants - 2 tetras, gourami, angelfish, a...

    Lost a gourami today...

It's really sad at how much I grow attatched to these guys -- I bought two blue gourami's and a small pleco a couple days ago after my parents took me out after getting good grades.. The other one has been very lively and eating regularly since I got him in the...

    Pleco isn't eating....

    Hi everyone, I recently added a pleco (around 2-3 inches now!) to my tank, and he doesn't seem to be eating the pellet things I drop into the tank. The other fish seem to be more interested in them then he is. Any advice?

    So far, so good!

    My parents got me a 29 gallon tank for x-mas, which took a couple days to set up because I needed a decent stand (that I finally found at Petsmart!) Anyways, I bought 2 pairs of guppy fish and I also recieved a betta as a gift, so I put them all in the tank. They are actually doing very well...
