    Bluegill Dying of Old Age?

    I would have liked to upgrade the size but I have limited house space. The next best thing I could do is put him in my 200g plastic tub pond outdoors in spring. I'm just worried predators may get to him.

    Ways to stop fish fighting?

    Barbs tend to be aggressive in general. As long as the injuries are not inhibiting normal fish behavior it might turn out okay.

    Community Tank Noob

    Bluegill Dying of Old Age?

    Hello, I've had this bluegill 2014 but he was at a high school so I'm guessing he is already very old. He was born in captivity so I can't release him. I've done research and a lot of sites say fish don't die of old age. They die of diseases they get because they become more susceptible...

    Bluegills...?

    Good news! I gave one of the bluegills to a friend of mine and kept one. I have gotten a 90 gallon for him and his colors have gotten so much brighter! Definitely happier than before!

    New american toad ownet

    Hi. I had found a couple of very small american toads. One of which is actually a lot larger. I am sure it is a juvenile. I wanted to make sure I had the right tank set up for them and proper care so I came here. I have been feeding them small bugs that I find around outside. I do not spray any...

    Bluegills...?

    Hi I was wondering what type of fish these are, I caught them from my nana's pond as little wigglers last summer. I don't know if they are, in fact bluegills. I have been feeding them brine shrimp, which they eat happily. They both are in a 10 gallon tank, and their names are Bonnie and Clyde...
