Hey guys, so I have a feather duster and he's doing fine but there's something on his tube that I ignored for awhile but now I feel like it shouldn't be there. It's been there since I got it a month or so ago. It looks as if it's some kinda parasite. It has purple "roots" or thicker hairs coming...

Hi everyone I have a 75gal tank that is full of plants, a bunch or elodea, 2 amazon swords, 2 bunches of foxtail, and a hair grass. I have 6 bamboo shrimp and a power head current through the bottom if the tank. I have read that shrimp like moss, so what species of moss are fast growing, but...

Hey everyone, I recently went through a spell of fin rot. The tank is clear of that but my angel fish have some mysterious white dots on their fins. (I have asked many opinions and cannot identify them, but i know it is NOT ich.) Anyways, I have been doing daily water changes of 30 to 35% to...

Hi everyone, I had a case of fin rot (or i think it is at least) and have been treating it with API Furan-2. It is this last day of medication and the white edges on the fins haven't gone away. Now im wondering if that is just new growth? The white hasn't gone away in 4 days of medication. On...
