I recently moved my betta to a 2.5g tank with a small filter, and he was doing great (actually a lot better than when he was in his bowl, his fins were healing from previous fin rot) and the other day I happened to look in his tank and his fins were as ripped and jagged as ever, even worse than...

Could anyone tell me what the lifespan of a fish is once they start showing signs of fish tuberculosis? I have had a platy that has been acting very strange for over a month now, and I just want to rule out what it may be. Thanks!

I have three adult platys (2 females, 1 male) in a 20g aquarium. I managed to save two of the fry from some other platys I had bought a few months ago (I've lost track of how old they actually are), and right now they're probably about 1 cm long. What I'm wondering is if they would be ok to go...

I have had this eel for a little over a week, it was a gift from some friends that I didn't particularly want...He's 5-6 inches in a 20 gal tank (which I know is too small) with gravel substrate (which I know should also be sand). I thought I'd try and give it a go with him anyways. I've been...

Two of my best friends recently gave me a peacock eel for my two-week old 20 gal. The tank is 30 in long x 10 tall x 12 wide and the eel is about 5 - 6 in long. I just want to make sure that this tank is spacious enough for him. There are several large rocks for hiding spots and about seven...

I have two female platys in a 5 gallon tank, heated, filtered, salted...all the luxuries. Lately, the bigger of the two has been hiding a lot, and whenever I come near the tank she completely, for lack of a better word, wigs out. Swimming really frantically all over the place, almost jumping out...

I have had two female platys in a 5 gallon tank with filtration, heat, and salted water for a few months now with a golden mystery snail as well. I do weekly water changes of about 25%, condition the water, and feed once a day. Lately, the bigger of the two has been acting incredibly strange at...

I have a male betta that I believe has fin rot (as it's fin are becoming ragged and torn looking, with whitish on the ends). I usually keep him in a plain fish bowl (it's actually a giant champagne glass that holds about a gallon of water. Classy.) with salted water. I don't have it heated but...
