It's never had even a trace of algae before and the most recent changes would be a new canopy and filter but that was back in july. I...

    Could I Add Any More Fish?

    I'm not sure but you might not want to add anymore, danios get to be a little over 2 inches and most cories acctually get to about 2.5 - 3 inches long. after a while your tank may become kinda crowded (especially when cories like groups of 4-6).

    Have You ever seen Your Cories Eat?

    my cories pig out a lot but i think my goldie uses them to judge where there is food in the gravel so I always dump some in the bushes. My guys aren't shy at all, the goldie is kinda huge in comparison so they do get spooked by him sometimes but not much, one sat on his fin once.

    Treating water

    Well, I know I should but after nearly 10 years of fish keeping I have my doubts. I have never treated my tap water for chlorine, ever. My fish seem fine, never had any problems with my goldies until the crash and my cories and snail seem to be fine with the way I handle my tank. I am going to...

    It will suffice for now if he's alone but he does/will require a larger tank as he will grow a whole lot bigger.

    Do fish play?

    When my cories aren't searching for food they are always chasing each other around (not aggressively) on the back of the aquarium doing circles and figure 8's.

    Fat Angel

    I'm sorry to say but it is probably dropsy or asesites(?) my goldies behaviour didn't change until she was about 3-4 months into her illness.
