I also have a big black snail in my 55 gallon and he is super cool. He is my primary source for algae control and keeps it pretty clean. I only put a pad to the glass about once a month and that is just for a few minor spots he can't get to (behind the draw tube & heater, etc). He seems to...

Hey thanks for the help everyone! I think I have some great starts to my lid-hunt. :D

Greetings! I recently aquired 2 more tanks from a fella who moved and doesn't want to have fish anymore. I went through everything he has and the lights are there but there are no lids for the tanks. :? Anyone know what I can use to make lids? I have cats and really MUST have lids and my...

What a horrible thing to have happen. I am very sorry to hear of your troubles. :( I can't agree with using bleach unless you use extreme changes in temps each time you rinse in order to break up the chemical bond of the bleach (very very hot then very very cold and then repeat). Bleach is a...

Thanks very much for taking the time to look for disease information. I greatly appreciate it.

The water is 7.2pH, no ammonia, no nitrates/nitrites. It takes a while before death...weeks. I talked to two LFS and they both just said to medicate as if it were abdominal dropsy. Soooooo, on that note I bought some Maracyn2 to try out.

My fish are turning dark colors internally. It starts near the organs and seems to spread down the spine until they die. The second symptom is that on the center of the breast, a bump appears and also turns dark in the center. Third symtom soon before death is scales turning out and lack of...

hehe, I think I know what it is! There aren't enough lethal FW aquarium fish to be cool enough for men! 8)

female freshy ISO barb lover :wink:

whoah, what a bizzare looking fish. Let us know how he holds up.

I LOVED having corys! They were little class clowns in my tank of serious tetras. Good luck with them. :)

I would have to go with water quality here. None of the remaining fish seem to be known for aggressive behavior. :? I can't point any fingers though because I have enough algae to kill any tank. :( Don't keep the lights on, get brown plants. Keep the lights on, get algae. Don't feed the...

OK, after reading the replies I called the Ulster County SPCA. The person who runs the cruelty division was called to active military duty and no one has replaced them. The SPCA told me to call the Sheriff's office so I did. The Deputy Sheriff basically just thought I was wasting their time but...

That's a great idea. My vote goes for this suggestion! :)

All I know is that we used to play with them all the time when I lived on the water in Savannah, GA. I know from messing with them that they like to have holes in the marshy mud but also will crawl all over the dock. They get in the water but I never saw them as often as in the mud. My guess is...

What would you do if you went into a business and saw fish being mistreated? I went to pick up some Chinese food the other day from a place that I had heard was really good. As I came in I noticed a large fish tank with some cloudy, greenish water in it and three filthy over-the-back Whisper...

it's a small, raised, cicular area near the tail. He still swims around looking for food but doesn't look like it's as easy as it was prior to the cyst. I went and bought 10gallon tank today so I can put him in there if it is a communicable illness. What do you think it could be?

I found a cyst on one of my Bloodfin tetras. It is near his tail and is rather large. What do I do? :(

Hmm, odd because I also have had a 'breakout' of orange spots. :?: Glad your fish are still healthy. That makes me feel a bit better about my own. Please PM me if you learn what caused it. Thanks!

they aren't streaks at all, they are most certainly spots. It's so weird! :?
