Last night I was checking out my ocsars' tank and I noticed a tiny white worm (about the size of a strand of hair) swimming through the water. 8O When I cleaned out my gouramis' tank they were everywhere in the gravel and along the bottom, either swimming or resting on the gravel. I'm running...

Hi! Got another problem here, if anyone can help out. I have a red betta that I'm about to switch from his planted bowl to a 5gal community tank (guppies) in hopes that he'll grow a bit. He's been in my care for about 6 months, gets food every day, but looks Super scrawny! He was small when I...

This is quite possibly the weirdest problem I've ever had. I have 7 (3 pearl, 2 blue, 2 gold) gourami's in a 29 gallon tank and I've been trying to keep it clean with a pleco. That's where the problem lies. I've been through two pleco's so far, both having died from some ick looking disease...
