Thank you very much for your advice. I have done a bit of research on each of the ailments you have mentioned. Although it "looks" like dropsy the fish is not showing any other symptoms that relate to it. Poop is as normal, light brownish colour and string like. I am now thinking it may be a...

1 Dwarf gourami

Hi, My angel fish has now looked like this and progressively getting larger over a period of about 3 weeks. Can anyone recognise what may be happening please?
I have left it upside and tried lifting the vase slowly out of the water causing a vacuum type of effect but his stubborn! I'll try the syphon later. The worse that can happen is I give him a big hicky I suppose!

I tried that and he won't move! Smashing the vase seems to be the only answer but I don't want to harm him.

Hi, can anyone recognise or give me any advice as to what these marks are on my fish please? My tank parameters are "normal" and I have a 200l bow front tank. This has come on over the last few days. He was perfect before that. Any help appreciated. Thankyou.

You made my heart skip a beat but he was definitely dead. His eyes were clouded and was lying face down and stiff as a board. I picked him up out of the tank with my hands so I think he would have definitely woke up. Just can't believe its happened.
I used an API freshwater master test kit. I took the levels before I introduced him to the tank (which is 200 litres) and after I removed him. No difference in both tests.
I have an established aquarium with all water perimeters "normal" and just recently a friend had to rehome his 5 month old Bruno plec. He was quite a decent size at around 8" long. I followed all guidelines to the book in introducing him to my aquarium and for the last 2 days has settled very...
Please help as both my large angel fish seem to be covered in white spots and I have treated them for ich by the book but no improvement after 2 weeks and 4 seperate treatments. I have also turned the heat up. Any help is appreciated as I love these 2 and don't want my other fish infected too.
