    Cotton like growth on fish.

    Sorry for the late response. Life gets busy some times. The tanks I own are both 10 gallons but my buddy has a 20 that he is willing to let me have as a kind of trade. My full intentions (as my daughter new.) was to let the gold fish out grow our tanks and then give it to our day care. They have...

    Cotton like growth on fish.

    That tank is about 1gallon or so. Was only using it temporarily until I had a bigger tank up and ready( have a couple in the garage). The 1 gallon tank is my med tank. Was never intending to keep it in that tank. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Cotton like growth on fish.

    Thank you for all the advice. Sadly the fish didn't make it. So Now our next adventure for fish will be the lfs do a new gold fish since we have the tank set up and cycling now. My next question might go off topic a little but I would like to know the best way to approach this scenario? Seeing...

    Cotton like growth on fish.

    Last night we went to the carnival and came back with an unnexpected fish. I set up our small med tank as my daughters fish tank doesn't have room for another fish and I needed time to set up a new tank. This morning I noticed this cotton like growth on the mouth, side and top fin. Obviously...

    Growth on java fern

    Forgot to add the rest lol. What would be the best way to go about a 24hr black out? Should I just tape up black paper to the fish tank and keep light off or should I take the plant out of tank and place in another tank that is blacked out?

    Will be getting some fertilizers for the plants this week and will also be attempting a black out period for them as well.

    Thank you! I'll start with ferts if I don't see a change then I'll go to more drastic measures. I'm kind if hoping they are plantlets and will come back lol. Want more plants

    I never got around to getting ferts. Looking to add a few but not sure where I should start. Will be adding liquid carbon(?) but haven't looked into ferts really.

    Growth on java fern

    Thought of this. The original tank the plant was in was in a dark corner. Bulb went out and stayed that way for about a month. Probably wasn't dark enough. I should also mention these growths have been on the plant for about 2 1/2 months. This weekend I will be trying scraping off one leaf...

    Growth on java fern

    Thes growths cover every leaf of the plant. Should I just get ride of the plant? I'm going to try a couple things. See if the new environment will change things. If not I will look to see if there are any baths I can put he plant in that might help. I heard something about a poroxide bath but...

    I've had this plant for almost a year. In the last 3 months or so little dark green almost brown growths all over the leaves. They are not sproutlets. I have had lots of them and these aren't them lol. I have tried to scrape these growths off the leaves but they aren't coming off without a...

    Redecorated!

    Hello! Getting back into the hobby. I had 3 tanks up and running a few months ago but due to life getting to busy I had to take one down. Over the last few months my maintenance had fallen. I have recently gotten back into the hobby. I combined my 1.5 gallon tanks and my daughters 10 gallon...

Cut down to just my daughters fish tank: 10gal stocked with 4 make fancy guppies 2 cardinal tetras and an African dwarf frog. I have 2 fake rocks and a few fake plants. I have...

    Female guppies no longer wanted

    Maybe I'll try rewording it when I ask. A lot of the stores around me seem to be overstocked. I'm trying to trade but guppies are worth very much.

    Female guppies no longer wanted

    It has been a while since I have needed some advice it seems. The problem I have at the moment is, I have a bout 10 female guppies left over from my guppy breeding project. I'm no longer breeding guppies and am looking to get ride of these fish. None of the pet stores will take them( for feeder...

    Is this a snail?

    I just put guppies in the tank which is when I noticed these all over the tank. I didn't think the guppies would eat them. Loaches probably would huh? If they aren't harmful I will just take them out as I clean the tank.

    Is this a snail?

    Interesting. I thought at first that it was mold or diatoms. But was very hard to get off tank. Will my fish eat them?

    Is this a snail?

    Just wanted to double check this with what I have found and think. This tank hasn't had a snail in it for 2 months and only had a snail in it for about a month. Thanks in advance!

    Anyone in the Reno area

    I will certainly let anyone know as well as keep it in mind for myself. Once I get rid of these guppies ill have some room for some tropicals(that is if my wife lets me keep the tank set up)

    Anyone in the Reno area

    I might have to go with CL to get ride if mine as well. Or just sell them as feeder fish.

    Anyone in the Reno area
