The last one had a bit of red around her face as well. I don't know about the others

I had three female guppies; they had been in the tank about a week and a half. I could tell they were stressed because they were clumped in the corner of the tank and their fins were close to their bodies, but I didn't see symptoms of any diseases so I assumed they were just getting used to the...

What about the white stuff?

Two days ago, my gourami jumped out of his tank while I wasn't home (so he was probably out for 2 hours or more). I have since secured the top. He managed to survive the jump, but now he's got this strange white mucus-y substance all over him and he's losing more of his fins every day. Is there...

Update, I moved my loach into the tank. He spent the first 30 minutes or so exploring and hasn't expressed any interest in the snails. Will continue monitoring him, especially later today when it's been a while since he's been fed.

I've got a new tank that just finished cycling. It only has plants and two nerite snails in it. I've started seeing these bubbles on the surface of it, and I don't know if I should be concerned.

I have a zipper loach that I want to move to my new tank. I have two striped nerite snails in it already. Will my loach pester them until they die or will it give up and leave them alone?

It really doesn't look like a dojo loach, based on images from google. Plus, it's way smaller than 6 inches.

The loach appears to be a mottled or sand loach (unsure which or if there's even a difference). Also, I don't think I can or should fit more male guppies in the tank, so I might have to go with females or I might need to consider a different fish.

It looks like some type of loach, but I'm not sure what kind. It's really shy, around 2 inches long, and has been alive for at least 5 years.

I'm setting up a 10 gallon tank, and I want to figure out what fish I want to put in it so I can meet their needs w/ plants and such. Right now, I have my brother's loach (no idea what kind, it's thin and around 2 inches long) from an aquarium he stopped caring about, and I'm thinking about...

Hi, I'm Tiger, and I'm not really sure what all to put here. I'm new to aquariums, and I'm working on setting up my first freshwater aquarium with live plants right now. So yeah
