If it's the type of white cotton like fungus from driftwood it's completely harmless and will go away soon.

Well Good luck to you when you do. I might try some earthworms and see if he likes them!

Are you going to start out with a little baby TO? I was at the LFS getting fish food and I always have to look at the fish while I'm there and they had the cutest little baby TO's. It's soo hard to believe mine was ever that small and cute. You won't regret getting one he's definitely the most...

Yeah I think feeding them feeder fish makes them or any fish more aggressive. Mine has never been fed any feeder fish maybe this is why he's never ate any of his Tankmates. I've never tried earthworms but he's so picky I doubt he would eat it lol! Wow 18" that's huge mine is about 6 years old...

Have you put any driftwood in the tank recently?

It may just depend on the Tiger Oscar. I've had my TO with many types of fish at one time or another with much smaller fish and never had any problems. He can be a bully and likes one side of the tank to himself but he's never ate any of my other fish however he's a very pick eater and usually...

Thanks for the info I'll have to check into it.:)

So sorry to hear your fish died, poor little guy. :(

Nice tank and fish! I really like your rock formations. I tried to do something like it in my tanks but I have large cichlids and they destroyed it kept knocking it down and over so I finally gave up. Unfortunately with tiger oscars they pretty much destroy everything in the tank lol!

Sand is better IMO. 1. It's easier to clean fish poo stays on top easy to vacuum with python while doing water changes. 2. I have mostly cichlids and they seem to like it better than the gravel. 3. IMO it looks better.

Cool tank!! Love the fish, water looks pristine and your rocks are awesome where did you get your cool large rocks?

It shouldn't take too long to see good results in my opinion the very clean water helps the most just do your daily water changes like we said and you will see a noticeable change very soon. My tiger Oscar injured himself in his tank (he gets very rough sometimes) at night I can hear him...

Me too good luck and please keep us posted on his progress! :)

I see what your saying but that's for regular maintenance your treating a sick or injured fish. So do what George9 said take out carbon from your filter if you have it and make sure and remove 25-30% of the water daily add prime before adding new water and then add the Melafix.

Yes most definitely :)

Ahhh! Poor little guy considering he's missing a good portion of his tail that could be the culprit. I do believe Melafix will help and frequent water changes to keep the water pristine. :)

Looks more like aggression to me than fin rot... I've never had any problems with my silver dollars being aggressive, could it be your shark that did it?

Neons are good if you can keep them alive!! In all my years of fish keeping can never keep them alive longer than 6 mths I finally gave up! I've had real good success with rasboras and I really like the scissor tails very hardy get along great even with my betta :)

He's a beauty looks like he's really enjoying the driftwood. :)

Danios would be good or rasboras they both are more middle level swimmers.

So sorry to hear about your convicts:( I'm not experienced with more than one convict but I've heard they can take out fish much larger than them when protecting eggs or fry. Mine gets in little spats with my fire mouth cichlid once in awhile but luckily they have never really hurt each other...

Hi Bubble_Boy! IME with silver dollars they can get fairly large (small dinner plate size) and they usually swim at top or mid level, mine swim back and forth constantly like a schooling fish so I'm not sure they would do good in extra tall. I have mine in a 90g long tank! Hope this helps! :)

Is there any way I can let you know for sure in about a week? I'm super busy and I'm going to check with a couple local breeders here in town. I'm just a little leery of ordering and having it shipped in the winter. :-)

It's worth it to me!! Calico and albino bn plecos are a rarity here where I live!! And if I did find them at my LFS they would run about the same price + I rather buy from you than my LFS anyway because I know your's aren't diseased and won't have to worry about quarantine. I don't really need...

Hi! Do you have any juvie Bn's left I don't care what the sex is or if their albino or calico ( but would prefer calico if you have one) the smaller the better. If you have any left I would just want 1, can you tell me what shipping and total cost to zip code 67002? Thanks :-)
