Hello, Recently I bought 3 "Blue Acaras" from my LFS for 7.50$ each, but after looking online and researching some more information about them im beginning to think I got 3 green terrors instead. I know i cannot house 3 green terrors, especially in my smaller sized tank and origionally i...

Hi, this is my first post, so hello all. I have a 6 foot tank with a mix of community and two cichlids; one ebjd and one convict. I have a a leopard ctenopoma, tinfoil barb, rainbow shark, some bottom dwellers and more. Anyway, since my mother had to give up her tank, I had to adopt her...

So I am interested in keeping a paddlefish. I know that they get huge, and need lots a food and good water chemistry. I may or may not get one so I would like to know some first and knowledge. I already have a source that is willing to send a juvenile once they are in season.

So in my molly colony tank, which I have a huge amount of fish, all coming for 4 adults (2 males 2 females, one male has passed). One of my female gave birth about 1 1/2 month ago, and I could only rescue ten babies, and this was back when it was a community tank with some tetras. 9 of the...

Looking for some aggressive fish to put in my new 60 gallon. Anyone got some cool fish in la

I came home today and looked at my oscar. His fins are destroyed. His tail is chopped in half. So it looks like a way thicker version of a swordtail. I would like to know if it will heal or be scared.

I was curious about some slime on my driftwood. It is completely clear and I actually can't see it with my own eye. I could only tell it was there when I touched the surface of the wood. It was slimy in certain areas and in others it was not. This slime appeared while I was soaking it and it...

My flowerhorn fish has developed some kind of boil on its one side of the gill I cannot understand what kind of disease it is. He eats well, does not have any problem like white crap. But since it has developed this boil, he is really getting aggressive for no reason. It also gaps for air not...

Hello, I recently bought a featherfin catfish (Synodontis eupterus) to help with the leftover food in my arowana tank. I went to check on him and his eyes are somewhat cloudy. Hew swims around at night and is really skittish, which is weird since he was at the store for 2 years (nobody wanted...

Hello, this is my first post on MFK. My Jardini arowana jumped out of his aquarium. There is a glass lid but it has holes for the filter inlets and outlets. I don't know how long he was out of the water but when I went downstairs to check on the fish, I didn't see my aro, so I looked behind and...

I bought a very pretty white polypterus and he had been with me for almost 4 month. He was very healthy and very active. He loves to swim around his tanks. Everything was normal yesterday. He eats and swim around normally like what he does everyday. Until today when i woke up, he was dead and i...
