    Betta ate a grain of sand?

    Hey guys. My Betta ate a small grain of aquarium sand that happened to float at the top. He's white and I think I can actually see it in his stomach. He's acting perfectly normal everything is great. But that. He's not bloated at all. What should I do? Fast and pea? Do you think he will pass it...

    Disinfecting fish tank

    Hey guys. I have a question about tank cleaning. I had a Betta die recently from what I belive to be dropsy. It was sad but I had him for several years. I want to move my other Betta fish into his old tank. How do I clean it safely for him? Thank you. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using...

    Look at this cool wave front tank I bought!

    Lol thanks. I will probably do that calculation. I did the whole bucket thing with my 55 irregular shaped tank I also got on Craigslist but I got tired doing that! I was guestimating 95 gal from what I've seen online trying to look them up. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice...

    Look at this cool wave front tank I bought!

    Hey guys, I just thought I would share my new Craigslist find. This is what I belive to be a 95 gallon wave front aquarium. I'm so stoked. I got everything for $30. Yeah, it needs some major TLC but it will be a fun project. It's structurally sound and not broken anywhere just dirty. The stand...

    People not taking care of their fish rant #2

    True, I know we all make beginner mistakes. It just still bothers me that people can't take advice. Like, I know I've been there before. But, I listened to the advice of others and researched online instead of being ignorant and stubborn in my ways... Oh well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A...

    Betta fish not swimming properly

    UPDATE: He is swimming semi-normally. I think I'll do salt before trying any aggressive medications. Again, thanks for the help!

    Betta fish not swimming properly

    He doesn't have dropsy. I know that. You're probably right about constipation induced swim bladder. I should have brought my test kit. Its not like my mom is going to use it while I'm gone. But I didn't think about it. I do water changes every 1-2 weeks. 50%. Just did one a couple of hours ago...

    Betta fish not swimming properly

    I don't have any information. I don't know the water quality, I don't have a test kit with me at school. But it's a cycled tank, fluval spec 5 gallon to be specific, Temperature is about 78, sand bottom, I would test the water but like I said my master test kit is at home... I could go to petco...

    Betta fish not swimming properly

    I don't know my tank specs. Its a 5 gallon with fluval filter. I've had this Betta for about a year now. Originally saved him from Wallmart... and he is an awesome fish but I feel like he is nearing the end of his life way too soon... He cant swim properly, he floats to the surface and has to...
