Oooh... cory babies doesn’t sound half bad. Will they actually hatch? And what would I have to do to keep them alive?

Just the water from the bag the mollies came in. I could take a trip to the pet store and see if there were any snails in the tank the mollies were in? However they also have a joint filtration system, so that could be the case, however, nothing was in the water when they were in the bag, and...

I’m almost positive the oodinium is gone, I took good care of the water, balanced the ph, and covered the tank for three days. (Because oodinium needs light to survive)

The ones that were stuck to the heater are now gone, but the ones on the plants and filter are still there, as far as I know. I’m in class at the moment and won’t be home for another two hours to check. I don’t have any snails, only those three mollies, the frog, and the three catfish. Had an...

It would also help to note that yesterday I completely moved the tank from one place to another. I had to empty pretty much all the water out, I used the vacuum and managed to harvest about nine gallons of the original water, and then added five gallons of distilled water, and filled the rest...

Update: they are also all over my plastic plants, but not the tank ornaments.

Some background info: I have a 23 gal freshwater tank currently stocked with three corydoras catfish, an aquatic frog, and recently added, three mollies. Since the addition of the mollies yesterday, I have noticed small round white things attached to the wall, the heater, and the filter. At...

So, as of 4:00 am, it has taken one of the loaches. All other tank mates are completely unaffected, but the other loach is still stiff and doesn't want to move unless prodded, and it takes a lot of prodding, I had to move him all the way up to the top to get him to swim on his own, and he...

I read up on oodinium. It says that in this stage, he is almost definitely going to die. I'm hoping and praying that doesn't happen as I've grown quite attached to this fish.

Further update: one of the tetras has died(but let's be honest they're just tetras.) the loaches are still being quite listless, just laying at the bottom of tank, and they seem to be breathing heavily. The dots are slowly disappearing and they are "shedding" (which they do when they are...

Okay. Freshwater salt.

You order fish online? How does that work?

Update: I have taken the tetras out as they seem to have fin rot which I have encountered before, so I got them a cure-all and separated them because the cure-all is not safe for scaleless fish. I added VERY little salt (literally like a pinch) and raised the temp to 79 (gradually) and will...

I have read that copper is really bad for the loaches. So far I have done a partial water replacement and vacuumed the gravel. I tested the water, it said that my nitrate level was high and the ph was a little high, but not majorly. I put some ph down drops in and will test for the ph again...

I will do another water change tonight and vacuum the gravel, here is another picture of the dots on the loach.

The water is currently at 73 degrees F.

I am feeding them fluval color enhancing flakes and algae wafers, I do about 25% water changes every ~2weeks, the water began to get cloudy yesterday after a 25% water change, I have a 50gal aquaclear filter with activated carbon, ammonia remover and foam inserts, the last new fish I introduced...

This is the better version of the photo above

I'm going to begin by saying that I only started maintaining an aquarium a little under a year ago(last December), so I am not as experienced as some of you. I have a 23 gallon tank with four tetras, two dojo loaches, three albino corydoras catfish, one aquatic frog, and One ghost shrimp. I had...
