Good morning, I found one of my ember tetras stuck between the sponge filter and the aquarium glass this morning. I took him out with my long tweezers and put him in my hand to prepare to get rid of him. Then he started wiggling! Right now I have him in a bowl floating in the water so the temp...

Hi there, I have a 29 gallon planted setup. I just went through an episode of ich with some cardinal tetras that I added from two different sources. All of the cardinals ended up dying, but none of the other fish died. Currently I have 5 ember tetras, 1 bristlenose pleco, 3 corydora...
