Writing this post is really bumming me out and making me sad because I really do love my fish, however I really am struggling trying to take care of him. Thus, I just wanted to put it out there that I have a 2 year old Jack Dempsey named Augustus who comes with a beautiful 60 gallon tank...

30 t0 35 percent a week approximately.

Thank you that is very kind - 60 gallon does not seem big enough for him at all. I am reluctantly thinking about finding him a good owner if things don't get better. I raised him for two years, that time was easy, now he that he has become the size of a small Godzilla, it's a little...

OMG this stuff is all so new to me, I got him a test kit, I will go test the water and post the results. I don't want to, but I wonder if I should get him a new home - which will make me kind of sad but with somebody who knows Cichlids and might do a better job.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your time and advice. He is cute :) I am going to purchase those items and hopefully things will get better. I just can't believe one fish can make that much of a mess, lol. Well with the help of his owner making a mess too! My ex boyfriend against my...

Just pics of my fish.

I have a Jack Dempsey Cichlid, who is about a year and a half old in a 60 gallon tank. He was given to me as a baby by my idiot ex boyfriend who carelessly went and bought the cheapest fish he could find at the time and threw it in a tank he found in the dumpster. Anyway, I bought Augustus...
