I plan on purchasing a 46 gallon bow front tank. I would like to keep 2 fancy goldfish in it. I am aware of the frequent water changes that will be needed since they produce so much ammonia. Would this be an adequate tank size as they grow to full size? Any advice would be appreciated!

I plan on getting a couple of goldfish for my 60 gallon tank. It has been established for years but I want to stock it with goldfish now. Based on my research I could have 3 adult goldfish in a 60 gallon but I want to be cautious and give them plenty of room to grow. I know they produce a lot of...

Thanks for the response. I'm def going to look into trading them. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

I should have taken your advice. Today my third angel(marbled veil tail) turned up dead. He had been eating the night before perfectly normal. He had no apparent wounds on his body, no fungus or anything. I must have found him right after he died because he looked perfectly normal. I am so...

Thank you again for all the insight. My nitrates tested fine again and I went ahead and did another water change to be on the safe side. I'm gonna keep my eye out for aggression and hopefully this will be an isolated incident. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Thanks for the advice. I will double check the nitrates. I'll definitely keep an eye out for any more aggression as well. I work so hard to keep them happy and thriving and then they just kill each other. I guess it happens unfortunately. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

No nothing else has changed. All fish are healthy and parameters are great. I have 2 angels that have paired off so maybe some aggression occurred but I couldn't see any wounds. Plus I haven't really seen any aggressive behavior besides the usual nipping here and there. Sorry to hear about your...

What your describing(hiding) could be the early signs of an illness. I had angel fish who had similar behavior and ended up having wasting disease. My fish became disinterested in food and lost weight. Does your goldfish have any white or stringy poop? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

So I am very upset that one of my favorite angel fish just passed away. I have a 60 gallon aquarium that has been established for years with 4 adult angels and various other small fish. All of my water parameters and temp are normal. I always do a head count when I feed to ensure everyone is...

I have a very tall tank. It's narrow and 24 inches tall. I don't have any pairs yet. Thank you for the advice! Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

I have a 60 gallon aquarium and I am wondering what would be the appropriate amount of angel fish I can keep in it. Sources online seem to have different answers. The guy at my LFS said to put as many as I want which clearly isn't correct lol I currently have 4 half dollar size angels. I am...

I had a marineland 350 magnum filter for 6 months and it started making weird sounds that I couldn't resolve. The propeller was fine, so the company ending up sending me a completely new filter free of charge. I've had my new one 2 months and its been great until recently it started making that...

Yes I feed frozen blood worms, brine shrimp occasionally, a frozen carnivore mix with beef heart and cobalt flake food that has probiotics. I'm thinking it must he a parasite that is working it's way around the tank.

Also is this kind of issue I need to treat my main 60 gallon tank as well? Is it something that lives in my biofilter or water?

On friday I dipped my sick angel in a 1tbsp of Epsom salt in 1 gallon of water for 20 minutes. She tolerated it fine. I then added 300mg of metronidazole into 10 gallons of water. I heated the tank to 85 degrees and added a bubbler. I use to keep discus and the simply discus forum has a really...

oh my gosh I've been fighting this battle with my angels too! I've been feeling so discouraged. I keep up with good water changes and all my water parameters are great. It's like you said all my other fish are fine. Just the angels seem to be affected by it. I was able to get one better using...

Its metro and prazi. My sick angel is looking really skinny. I'm worried she won't make it. I noticed tonight one of my other angels had white stringy poop. Its the first I've seen of it. He still has a good appetite but should I be worried that my big tank is becoming infected.

Just wondering how long has this tank been set up? What are your water parameters including temp? How often and how much do you do water changes?

I have a well established 60 gallon aquarium with 4 angel fish and various other small fish such as danios. All water parameters are normal and I keep the tank 78-80 F. I have not added any new additions to the tank. About two months ago one of my angels suddenly stopped eating and had white...

Awesome thank you. I'll Def try this out!

Theresa I love the shrimp bowl you made! My question is how do you maintain it and what do you feed?

I tried to upload a picture but it wasn't working. Ill try again. Ammonia 0, nitrites 0, nitrates 5. If the little community fish are in danger as the aggressive ones mature then I may set up a separate tank for them. I use to keep danios with discus no problem so I thought it would be ok.

I have a blood parrot(4in), 3 half dollar size angels, 2 mollies, 3 ghost catfish, 3 guppies, and 3 snails. All have been in the tank for a while now so I'm not thinking a parasite would have caused the wound. I guess one of the cichlids could have gotten aggressive but they never mind the...

My leopard danio has an open wound at the base of his tail and it appears part of the tail is missing as well. I can see open flesh with bones sticking out. All water parameters are good and all of my other fish are doing great. The danio itself is otherwise good(swimming around normal and...

Anybody???
