sick

I recently purchased a school of 3 Mono Sebae in pure freshwater. I add salt to my tank with every water change. The second day I had them white spots began to appear along their sides. They are raised up like cysts. And have not spread to their fins. I've treated with water changes, and I'm...

I recently for a male motoro stingray, and started noticing a white edge begin to develop. It has been a few day, and I have done water changes. I've checked the water and my ammonia is 0ppm, nitrates and nitries tested as low as possible( I used an api master test kit). I don't know how to...

Hi recently been treating my flowerhorn fish for ich for about a month now with daily water changes of 50% and added salt 1tbsp per 5gallons as well as methylene blue medication. However it seems nothing is working. I notice his skin has some layer of mucus.

Hey guys, I recently purchased a Lapradei bichir from my LFS. It is severely underweight, but eating. I've had it for two days but it is breathing extremely awkwardly, and I have kept multiple bichirs to raise them up but I have never had one like this. My params are all normal, PH 7.4, temp is...

Can someone help me figure out whats wrong with my burmese border loach, i got him along with 2 others a few weeks ago, did 5 days in a quarantine tank, and was just added to my community tank with 1 betta and 2 yoyo loaches and 7 rummynose tetras. he is the only one displaying any illness...

He started getting white fuzzy spots, the spots would go away and leave small red splotches and new fuzzy spots would appear. I took him out of the tank to treat with salt (2 teaspoons for 14 liters) but a lot of things broke and i put him back in the main tank .Now along with the spots he has a...

Evening! Long story short...I have become the anxiety-driven foster owner of what I believe is an entire community of Jade Sleeper Gobies. Also know that my family and I have kept & bred the most common freshwater and saltwater fish in tanks up to 200 gallons. We've also kept crayfish, crabs...

I bought a 3-4" fire eel a month ago. I have a 30 Gal tank with 2 black molly, 2 dwarf gourami, 1 pleco, 1 african dwarf frog, 1 cory catfish, 1 male betta, and my fire eel (All fish are small right now). I don't have any sand on the bottom but I do have small gravel (I was gonna get sand soon)...

He guys so about a month and a half ago I set up a 55 gallon tank for a good friend of mine. I had a high budget so I decided I was going to make it a super nice tank. His only suggestion was that he wanted sand. Everything else was up to me. So I got some stone hinge and a nice Fluval FX4...

My motoro stingray has not eaten in about 4 days. The water parameters are all good and all the other fish in the tank are perfectly healthy. This stingray has been in the tank for months and I have never had a problem. There also appears to be damage to some of the edges to her disc. I am...

Good day, My 3 bettas have Ich and I was told to use the Nox-Ich product. The instruction is clear, yes, but I have some questions: - Do I add drops (drop / gallon) each day during the treatment? - Do I change the water each day during the treatment? Or only at the end of the 3rd day? Thank...

hi I feel like I keep coming back here for help - thank goodness you guys are here My pleico is maybe 6 years old, he’s in a 35 gallon tank on his own and he’s a little over 12 inches long (measure varies through the glass to as much as 13 inches). He’s been staying by the heater towards the...

Hi guys, I wonder can you help me. I woke up to find my Flowerhorn very inactive this morning, and then I noticed he done a very big cloudy poop, which made a mess of my entire tank. He is about 3 inches long. I monitored him and then about 30 mins later he did another. And again made quite...

Alright guys. So just several minutes ago, i noticed that my two small (2-3") oscars (red and tiger) have white spots on their fins. I researched it out how to diagnose ich, and realized that 1. they have been spending more time near the bottom of the tank, 2. the tiger's appetite is almost...

Hi guys, Happy Holidays.... Just noticed a few small holes on both sides of my Thai Silk Flowerhorn's head. Can u guy take a look and give me your thoughts, I done a 50% WC 2 days ago, and my temp went up 3 degrees but I got it back to normal 27 degs by the time tank was full. This was my...

Hi I was hoping for some help. I posted on another part of the forum, specifically in the Pleco section but no replies yet. Since then we have done a water change, all levels good except ph was a little low- we did a ph chem add on a portion of the water change to try to get it closer to 7.0...

This time he is pooping stringy white stuff. He's still eating voraciously, but he isn't as active as he was. He's also probably stressed because my other senegal has been bullying him a bit. Considering separating the two. Water parameters are fine, temp is 78, all other fish are okay. I saw...
