    Possible finrot on endler

    Thank you, I might wait a bit to see if it gets better, otherwise I'll try and find the furan if they have it in Australia. Thank you for your advice :)

    Possible finrot on endler

    I have tests for nitrites and nitrates. I last tested a couple days ago and both read very low, though I can't remember the exact numbers. I'd test it again but I'm away from home for two days. I keep the water temperature at 26 degrees. I was told 23-25 was optimal for a Borneo sucker but that...

    Possible finrot on endler

    Thanks, I'll try to see if I can find it or purchase it online ( I'm actually in Australia, so no walmarts to be seen anywhere :/ ) If for some reason I can't get it, does anyone know any other alternatives or ideas? I know we have melafix here but I've heard its quite harsh on scaleless fish...

    Possible finrot on endler

    I bought some endler fish (most likely endler/guppy crosses) a couple weeks ago and they've been doing fine til now. Today while looking at them I noticed one looked like its side fins (pectoral fins I think) were white on the edges and not quite "full." The easiest way to describe it is that it...

    New Goldfish- White stringy poo and no appetite

    Ok, I'll do the water change today and get it checked tomorrow. I know he'll definitely need a bigger tank once he's grown a bit, but should this tank last him at least a while? I'd heard 30 gallons for a full grown common goldfish, but that only 20 gallons was needed for a fancy goldfish. Have...

    New Goldfish- White stringy poo and no appetite

    It's a 30L, it wasn't cycled yet. It came with water conditioner and a bottle of the beneficial bacteria which change the ammonia and nitrites. Should I still be doing frequent water changes to make sure the levels aren't too high? He is a pretty small fish, but maybe the frequent water changes...

    New Goldfish- White stringy poo and no appetite

    So I just brought home a new fantail who I think is having some issues. He was put into his tank yesterday but I'd like to get some advice as soon as possible. I'm concerned because he has a few problems going on: The most obvious is his floating problem, where he has a tendency to swim with...
