I have a 30 gallon tank and right now i have one adult guppy and about ten 3 month old fry (they are what is left after the tank cycling) i went out and bought four phantom tetras and they seem to be doing alright and i am going to petco in the morning and i was wondering how many tetras could...

ahh. I tested all my levels about three days ago and they were all where they should have been but this afternoon they are as follows. NH4 .25 Nitrite 5 Nitrate .2 Temp 77F pH 7.4 My plan for tonight is a 50% water change. It must be recycling. Thanks for all the help so far. (no change...

yeap i removed the carbon... I have been measuring the NH4, NO2, NO3, and pH.

i fed them Jungle Pepso food (clears intestinal fish farasites) for three days along with some peas and cucumbers (which they did not take to at all). Then yesterday morning i put in something i had used before with the popeye and figured it could not hurt, Fungus cure, they are capslules and...

there is nothing in color but they do look a bit lighter in color right before, kinda like they are pale but other then that there is not real change in how they look but they are all dying...

Okay the problem in my tank has some how gone from bad to worse. My death list now is four. Here are the symptoms. They start of with labored breathing for about a day and thier fins get kinda droopy and they start to become thin looking. Then for another day or two they are hard to find in...

I have been struggling with an internal parasite and lost two adult fish in the past week and i have 2 other adult fish who are not looking well. Now my remaining guppy, who shows no sign of the parasite, has quite a bit of red on her face and around her mouth region. My tank is fully cylced...

well...i have some sad news...well the male seen in the pic has now passed away. This one makes me more sad then when i lost the guppy. Why did they live through the tank cycling and die when the tank was cycled?

He's got a few pictures of his new African mubuna cichlids at http://www.caribou-maine.net/gallery/fish These were taken the night they were put into the tank, and they have a little more color now. Those guys go crazy over the peas, they seem to like them a lot, and they've started digging...

okay i put the peas in and to my surprise the fry seem to love them. the trick is to get them small enough. But my male molly does not even seem interested at all. And now my female molly is doing the same thing, but she is eating. ARG.

I bought a real nice 50 watt from big al's, and online pet store and it really seems to do the job. I have set it to 76 and 76 is where it has been staying. I thought it would not be strong enough but it seems to be keeping up just fine. And i love the bigger tank. the swordtail seems to be...

I put salt in the tank over a month ago and I add it when I do my water changes and I think it one table spoon for every five gallons and the fish do not seem to mind at all. The poop is in parts clear and in parts normal poop and he is the only doing it now...I had a guppy who had strange poo...

I was sticking to mainly flakes during the cycling because they are not as messy but i also have blood worms i have been feed them every other day or so. I so have some fungus care meds i bought to treat the Popeye i had a few weeks ago and i has Victoria green band and neutroflavine in it. It...

This is a pic of my male black sailfin molly and he has had this funky poo for a few days. Today I had my fist loss, I lost a female guppy who was doing about the same thing. He does not swim a lot anymore and seems to be real thin. I have just completed a bout of ICH and Popeye now that my...

right now i am running two filters and Marineland Penguin Bio-Wheel Power Filter- 125, and a walmart filter. I know the they are both a bit small and i am planning on upgrading. I also have a o2 stone in the tank. PLus my water level is about an inch from the top and there are a lot of...
