    Zilla in aquarium

    Does anyone know if it is safe to put a zilla vertical decor into an aquarium? Just realised it is made of a hard foam and it is too late to cancel the order. It did not say the material it was made of on Amazon. Thoughts? Will the foam deteriorate or harm the fish?

    Thanks for the tip. I heard you could do surgery to remove the lymph? Is cutting it off advisable?

    Paratilapia polleni sickness

    I'm not too sure if it is lymph. I had a dormitator maculatus with lymphocystis and this doesn't seem to look like that. This seems more like craters on it's sides.

    Paratilapia polleni sickness

    Hey guys, I finally had the opportunity to pick up a paratilapia two days ago. I only payed 8 dollars probably because he has some kind of disease. I don't know what it is. I thought maybe columnarus but he's been alive for a while and I know that it is a quick killer. I'd love to keep this guy...

    I have a microscope, I'll see if I can see anything. And no, I've never really checked nitrates or anything like that before.

    Fish not eating anything I feed them

    These are the fish I stress about the most. Doesn't the Fossorochromis look really skinny on his head? I've never seen one look like this. It was like that when I purchased it. The other is the Copadichromis, I never see him eat but he looks like he eats as he's got a belly going on for him...

    Fish not eating anything I feed them

    I fed them those Omega one cichlid formula cubes twice today and they all ate them. What I meant by they don't eat the pellets is they don't eat THESE pellets that I am feeding them right now. I am thinking they are just very picky about what they eat. I put in some shrimp last night and when I...

    Fish not eating anything I feed them

    I actually give them that as a treat. they tear those up all the time. I just don’t like spending 10 dollars on something that isn’t going to last long. But they do eat that right away

    Fish not eating anything I feed them

    So as you all know I have had an aggressive blood parrot that wouldn't allow my dragon blood peacock in the 90 gallon tank with him. Well things decided to work out I guess and she has accepted living with him in the tank. The only problem I have now is my fish will not eat absolutely anything I...

    African cichlid size

    Would a 4 inch peacock be okay with a 7 inch eyebiter? Not worrying about the other fish in the tank because they don't have huge mouths like the eyebiter. 90 gallon setup
