Thank you! Yeah the last one is the biggest one. I thought it looked pretty cool, too. I'm in the process of making some with artifical plants attached for an extra touch. I like making them, it's fun! ☺ thanks for your feedback

I've had these rocks in my tanks for years and thought they looked great but wanted to get in touch with my crafty side. They passed the vinegar test (years ago), gave em a good wash and they never leached or affected my PH so I figured, why the heck not ☺ Grabbed more rocks, grabbed some...

And thank you @toolman! That was very sweet and considerate of you. I do love my fish.. And I hate to see any of them suffer. I enjoy the hobby bc it's hard.. Yet rewarding and I've come a long way since the beginning. I just wanna fix this and save them all ��

Also, the main reason why I'm trying to remove the salt is because I want to do a epsom dip/bath with her but in afraid to use the tank water to do this with the salt in it as I've read that the combination of the two can be deadly.

Okay so I ordered some meds.. I got the seachem kanaplex. It's supposed to work for dropsy.. I looked at the metroplex and it seems effective for ich but not sure about it working for the dropsy. I do have some ich treatment here so I'm not as concerned with that medication yet, also bc I feel...

Looking now, I actually don't see any bloat in the tetra like I did last night. Hm. Strange.. Maybe it just ate too much at feeding time and was fat from that. But I do feel like, since they're kind of see thru, that some of their insides look more red and enflamed if that makes sense. My camera...

My nearest lfs is an hour away.. And I'm fairly confident with my liquid tests. The Ph may not be the best reading ever but.. For now it's all I have. Yes, I see white spots but very few. I can't see any on tetras, red tail, gouramis or blood parrot - now. But last week I saw one or two on the...

And no, no bacteria in a bottle stuff. The only thing I've added to the tank is prime (in tap water before it goes in the tank) and the API salt.

Ph should be good, however I hardly check it bc every time I do, it reads the same as my tap water which is between 7.4&7.6. I also have one 15lb bag of cichlid sand with the Ph buffers in the tank. All 65lbs of sand is new/washed sand that u added when I brought the tank home. Organics.. Well I...

New update, it seems as tho one of my tetras is becoming swollen now ? I'm seriously so upset right now. Should I go ahead and remove the tetras and loach and continue to do tiny water changed in their enclosure to remove the salt and then treat with an antibiotic? I'm so scared I'm going to...

Yeah I don't think the salt did the damage... But was curious if it actually made the condition itself worse (the bloat/dropsy). I will be trying the epsom salt. But still wondering should I remove her to her own space before trying this or should I leave her in the tank? Like I said I read some...

Thanks for your reply. When I raised the Temps, I added a 14" bubble bar and pointed my filter output to the top of the water for more agitation. I will only add meds once temp is lower in the 82 range. Most meds I've read are okay at this temp. I do plan to remove all the current water that...

It does seem that way. The baby loach passed last night after performing a 40% water change with no salt. They all acted quite funny after that and I was worried the BP was going to die.. I'm wondering didni remove too much salt too fast. I was in a panic, though. Poor baby loach ? Amount of...

I'll try to make this quick and as to the point as possible.. Recently moved my well established 90g back into my house. Was so excited about having it back in my possession, that I got excited and went and bought 3 opaline gouramis and two small clown loaches to add to the larger 4 I already...
