Glassbird: ABSOLUTELY!! We want to get another fish for our boys but I want to be prepared. Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Fishguy2727 and Homedog98: I will definitely make sure I have the tank under control before we get more fish and make use of this forum so you all can guide me. :) Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Glassbird: Thank you for taking the time to give me detailed instructions. That is what I needed. Unfortunately the fish died two days ago. I was very unprepared for the goldfish we had. Lesson learned. Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Yep. I just warned my husband. No more fish until we get the tank situated. Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Thanks everyone but I think I have tried to save it too late. At the moment my poor fish isn't breathing and is laying on it's side. Thanks for all of your help. Hard lesson learned. :(( Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Before and after photo of head. It looks like an open wound. Is the Ich dying and leaving open wounds? Why is it's head whiter than it was yesterday? Is it getting worse? Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

I was deterred from buying a heater and test kit from the pet store today and instead was told to buy aquarium salt and API Ick Cure. I am so afraid I made a mistake!! After following the directions it seems our fish is swimming just a tad more (it swam to the glass when it saw me) but it looks...

Thank you so much for all your help. I will keep you posted. Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Good to know. I did put some water conditioner in it along with some water treatment with Nitraban. I also had been putting lifeguard tablets in case the fish did indeed have a disease. Was it wrong to use all of that at the same time? Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my...

Thank you so much for your help!! I really appreciate it!! I will post as I get more information on parameters and the heater. We didn't buy a heater because I didn't think we needed one for goldfish. I wish I would have known! Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone...

Also, by "bubbler" do you mean the water filter system? I have a filter system that is pouring water back into the tank making bubbles. Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

How often will I have to change the water while treating Ich and how often should I change the water once the Ich is cleared? How often should I test the parameters? Will Ich kill my fish? Owner/Photographer - SBJamesPhotography - Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium

Thanks for your help Steve. By parameters do you mean the size of the tank? I do not have a test kit. My fish is in a 10 gallon tank. I was afraid of changing the water completely before this because I wasn't sure how to and didn't want to stress the fish out. I figured this was my last...

I am new to fish and to this site. We got this Black Moor about 6-8 months ago and have only changed the water by adding new water when it has evaporated. About a week ago, my fish started staying on the bottom of the tank. It occasionally swam around to eat food or grab some air at the top of...
