Welcome back to the fish keeping and to this forum. Please list all of your parameters and as fish wonder stated how long was the aquarium cycled. The information is very critical because if aquarium has not completed it's cycle that will cause fish to refuse food and other issues. :)

I've personally had to use shims under the stands of. a few aquariums myself do to floor not being level. I totally agree with charliebankston.

Tbh I never read or heard of a fish staying near of the heater due to illness. My concern was heater burn.

Welcome back!!!!

Oh ok I would just keep on doing what your doing and hopefully that area clears up.

Oh sorry misread your post I assumed it was more than 1 Flame Gourami. Do you ever notice the Gourami near the heater?

Great to hear that and hope things go well.

Just read a interesting article on Fishlab.com I googled how to treat Planaria. They explain in detail why your shrimp are dying and ways to treat.

Also prior to adding the Parrot Cichlid did you quarantine the Cichlid? If you didn't then the Parrot fish could have been carrying parasites.

You are probably correct. If the aquarium was not completely dark when you put in the food the Cichlid will definitely locate the food.

That may be from them fighting. Looks like missing scales. keep the water in pristine conditions.

Your Welcome!

How long did you have the Pleco and what were you feeding it?

Your welcome! I learn something new everyday as well lol.:)

The only way I can think of is from plants introduced to the aquarium. I know for sure they are found in ponds.
