In about 6 months I am moving. On the road time will be about 17 hrs. with a lay over of 7 or 8 hrs. I have 16 fish now but will problem just move 7 or 8. I have moved same fish before but a 1 hr. trip and I lost none. Let's say I have a tank set up and conditioned to receive said fish. It...

First of all, your nitrates are normal. Your ammonia levels are as low as an API kit or any kit can actual measure due to the human interaction of getting a sample. It is not that usual to have a species specific disease and since your danios are only species affected that would be my guess...

Ouch!:lol:

I agree with V227. I have T-barbs, bloodfins, tetras, assorted other barbs mixed in with an Acei, a yellow lab, a blue dwarf cichlid I can never spell right, a red tail shark and a firemouth. They usually play nice. Agree with other folk to keep only one firemouth.

I have two t-barbs swimming upside down, wiggling like puppys all over the tank. The other two are fine. The two in question seem to be swollen. When I try and caught them they are fast as always and swim up right. They seem to try and get underneath plants and hard structures and hold their...

Wow! That was close!

oh, they are ok. They, being Tiger Barbs, just like to mix it up. As long as they got each other they don't both anyone else.:fish2:

first thing is to check your water and start from there.

blood fins are good. Active. Need at least three or four.

Just after I feed the fishies this AM, an outright war broke out with my 4 tiger barbs. Not just chasing each other as normal but an nose to nose, mouth locking battle. Not just one on one but a free for all with, at one time, three of them locked up to with each other. This went on, with...

HI, my nick name is The Wiz (don't ask, it's a long story) and I have been in the hobby about 30 years. I am currently running a 60 gal tank with an eclectic mix of ciclids, barbs, tetras, and one contrary red tail. One thing I've learned in all these years in the hobby is that there are no...

Acei are nice and very striking as they get bigger. not very agressive
