Howdy!
I am a first time fish keeper with a travel sized 5 gallon tank. It was my sister's tank but she decised to move cross country and didn't want to put the little buggers through the move (it's not THAT travel sized afterall) She bequethed them to me with 3 balloon belly mollies, one of which I believe was stressed out to death (because of the 300 mile move) and one which succumed to a particularly bad case of fungus, or something....
These two deaths led me to the conclusion that I was clueless and despite my sister's best intentions, I needed to consult with a larger pool (tank?) of information. So, here I am, with one crazy stomach with fins and now two gold fish I rescued from being killed off as centerpieces at a company party. They are currently in the hospital tank...for now. Help!
