    Quick Question, A Deformity? Or Damaged Tail?

    So today I went to an outside fish store that mostly sold Koi fish and Goldfish. A lot of the Goldfish they had were uncommon or rare. Yellow Goldfish, Albino Comets, Butterfly Tail Moors, Crown Pearlscales, Bristle Shubunkins, etc. Its was a large area with a lot to see. The fish were in pretty...

    Play Sand as Substrate?

    Hi, I have a 55 gallon fish tank with 5 fish in it 2 Ryukin goldfish, an Oranda, a Wakin, and a Albino Brislenose Pleco. All of them are pretty small. I currently have a barebottom tank.

    How do I completely get rid of Ich?

    I don't have a test kit so I can't check on the ammonia, nitrates, etc. And neither do I have a heater since goldfish are coldwater fish. But I do have a spare tank it's a 20 gallon with a filter. I think the ammonia burns on my Ryukin were caused by garlic rotting in my fish tank after trying...

    Bump on Weather Loach

    While I was feeding my fish I noticed it had some large bump on the side of my Weather Loach. I think another one is forming on the other side too. It's acting normal and it isn't doing anything out of the ordinary but I'm scared that it might be a tumor or something. It wasn't there yesterday...

    Is my Butterfly Koi "Pregnant" or is this something else?

    After feeding all my fish, I've noticed that my yellow koi has become fatter than it was before and I'm curious to know if its either "pregnant" or its somehow has some problems. I don't see anything wrong with it though. It swims fine and eats justs like the rest of mine do. I feed them twice a...

    How to Improve My Fish Tank ( Besides the obvious )

    Thanks for all the recommendations. I might try most of these and definitely upgrade my tank soon. Also my goldfish have tried to breed with my butterfly koi a few times before, both of my goldfish are male and the orange koi is female. ( Not 100% sure about the yellow one maybe female ) though...

    How to Improve My Fish Tank ( Besides the obvious )

    I need help

    While Fantail grow a bit smaller than common,comet, and wakin goldfish, they still grow big. They usually grow up to 6 or if you're lucky (or unlucky) to 10 - 12. You should buy a 40 gallon fish tank or larger if you want to keep only those two Fantail Goldfish or a pond.
