We moved Donald Trump to the tank where we keep the comets. Donald is a bright orange platy, the biggest in his tank, and he's been harrassing all the other fish, including the three month old platys that we've just introduced in there. Nipping fins, trying to have his way with everything that...

Still alive. Still no change. No pineconing. We are perplexed.

Ours is eating but just a bit. And is not lethargic...

Thank you. That's alarming news. And it sounds about right. We noticed that she's not eating this morning We've got some meds which I will put in the water tonight.

No pineconing. I will try to send a picture. Other than the other zebra danio, no other fish. It's an isolation tank, since the other danios were harassing her (I think it's a her). Water parameters - Ph 7.5, ammonia pretty close to zero. I haven't tested nitrates. Behaviour: seems normal...

Water change. Added spider wood & glued on moss. Watched it float around at the top of the tank. Wondered whether our female danio is pregnant again.

On the scale of things, I think aquarium water changes make only a tiny impact on your overall household water consumption. Forty litres once a week is insignificant in the scale of things. It's like trying to save electricity by switching off your phone charger when your hot water cylinder...

Greetings everyone Complete newbie here, hailing from Cape Town. My stepdaughter gifted her mom with four comets over christmas. They'd belonged to one of her teenage friends, and had been fearfully neglected. We took them over cheerfully in their tiny octagonal tank (no plants), never...
