    Thanks much! They do seem healthy, I just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something.

    Glofish Danios- Curved Spines?

    Hi- I've noticed that almost all of my glofish danios are developing curvature in their spines. I've had three of them for about 10 months, and two for about 3 months. The two newest danios are the latest additions to the tank, no other new fish. They live in a 12 gallon fluval edge tank, with...

    Tetra with Swollen Eye

    Update: the eye seems that it has perhaps ruptured or perforated over night... I've attached a photo that gives a bit of a view of it today...

    Tetra with Swollen Eye

    Hi- I've noticed that one of my glo-tetras has a slightly swollen eye today. No redness or any other symptoms that I can find. It doesn't appear to be as large as the photos I am seeing of popeye, but possibly it has not reached that point yet. All other fish seem healthy, although I did add a...

    Cory feeding issues...

    I use the bottom feeder wafers, usually after i turn out the lights, but I can definitely try pellets to see if that will help. And honestly, I'm not sure if I can tell a skinny cory from a non-skinny cory...I'm extremely new to fish and aquariums, so I'm on a bit of a learning curve. How round...

    Cory feeding issues...

    Hi! I've got two julii cories (corys?) that I'm a bit concerned about. I feed them sinking wafers, but they tend to be very slow in getting around to them, while my glo-danios are not. I often see the danios tearing away at the wafers, no matter what time of day or night I put them in. (Oddly...

    Danio at waterline

    Thanks so much... Giving the peas a try. He's doing much better today, but floating fish are scary for a newbie :)

    Danio at waterline

    He's swimming around a bit more now, but still a bit concerned about him, and want to be sure I'm not doing anything wrong...

    Danio at waterline

    Hi- I've got a glo-danio that is suddenly (within the past hour) at the waterline acting odd... He's just floating there right side up, will swim for a short spurt, then end up back at the water line. I read that it is possibly bloat? I fed them about 2 hours ago, the usual amount (they finish...

    Dead Ghost Shrimp :(

    Thanks so much! I've done a three gallon change and I'm getting online now to order the API kit. This "relaxing" fish tank is a bit more stressful than I expected, but I just adore these little guys.?

    Dead Ghost Shrimp :(

    Hi- I'm new to aquariums and have a small (12 gal) FW tank that I started in February... Within the past two weeks I've lost both of my ghost shrimp, which have been with me since the beginning... The only thing I've changed was the use of distilled water for my water changes for the last two or...
