No, no rash or anything. I just worry about it if it is tb that is killing all my fish. I don't know. I have fry in that tank as well and they are doing okay. I hope it is just coincidence that they all had a sloping back and got skinny when they were going to die. :/ probably is something, just...

Did you ever worry about getting the rash on yourself? I'm a little worried about that myself. I have been doing extra water changes to try and keep the rest of the fish healthy as possible. They look fine, but it didn't take long for them to start dropping like flies before. Thanks for the...

Can anyone help us on this one? I woke up this morning to find her stuck to the filter intake. So as I assumed, she died. I'm afraid I'm going to lose the rest of my fish to this. I was reading somewhere it could be fish tb, but I think that is highly unlikely. I also have a 24 watt uv...

Yes, it is very strange. Maybe someone can help us soon.

Oh and there seems to be no other signs of anything except being lethargic. Scales fine, no discoloration, good gills. She also seems to be thinning and she used to be a very healthy breeder. I am not use to seeing her so skinny.

I think my fish may have a bent back. I lost 4 fish about two months ago mysteriously. My water params are fine, and they were when I lost my 4 a couple months ago. All the fish in my main tank are mollies. The 4 that died, died within a week to each other. They all started getting this bent...

I have a 40 gallon breeder, 36 gallon bowfront, 15 gallon, and a 10 gallon. Two are planted.

I have both mollies and guppies. With a 12 gallon I would suggest guppies. Mollies require a tank double that size. Guppies are really beautiful as well. Both are livebearers and will have tons of babies. Haha.

Maybe he just likes to be at the top. I was just curious if anyone else's guppies did this. Oh well. He is doing okay, so I guess he is okay. Thanks!

Yeah, I have fed him every day. He doesn't move from the surface even after he eats. Lol.

I just got a male guppy about two days ago and I was wondering it it was normal for him to stay at the top near the surface of the water. My tank has been cycled and my water parameters look good. I drip acclimated him in and he isn't gulping for air; no rapid breathing. He looks perfectly...

Mine do this all the time. They are just trying to eat stuff.

I agree, my mom has some of those rosy red minnows.

What brand were you looking at? Watts? I just bought one from petco and it was around $75 I think. And petsmart had one for $71. The green machine...I think, lol. 24 watts which is pretty good.

I decided on black gravel. Sand is pretty in a tank.

Yeah, I think the uv was a good investment. It keeps my water crystal clear.

We rent as well and we were told that if it doesn't pose immediate threat(ants) then I have to pay for my own pest control. Only thing I'm covered by my renter is roaches. But thank god I have never had a problem with those! We had ants and have great luck with the terro traps. They are not...

+1 Terro traps. I use them.

Well I think it was a combination of water changes, uv and raising my lights a bit. Mainly the uv I think. Yes! Victory!

Very pretty!!! I was thinking of going with the natural river stones like you have, but I'm torn between black gravel too. If I went with the river stone natural, I would like to try the cheaper way, if I could (use garden stones instead). They look the same... Maybe someone has used them. We'll...

I am setting up my 40g and I was just curious what kind of substrates people use. I want to stay with some type of gravel or pebble. Thing is, that much river stone is so expensive. Has anyone ever used the river pebbles from the garden section in a store? Aside from rinsing and possibly...

Thanks everyone for the advice, my water has cleared!!! :)
