It sounds like it could be pop eye, But wait for more responses. It appears as tho it may be pop eye/an internal bacterial infection that may affect the swim bladder. Any pics?

I've an outbreak of white spot before. Get an anti white spot formula from your local pet store. You could also try turning the temp up by a few degrees after you have given the treatment as this speeds up the white spot life cycle. The treatment kills the white spot bacteria in its...

Hi all, I just got a few extra mollies the other day and added them to my tank. I was walking past and saw a flash of silver. I thought it must just have been a part of the new plant I had just bought detaching. On closer examination I have 4 mollie fry as they are my only live bearers in the...

Usually that would sound like a swim bladder defficiency. But with it happening to both fish I would be a bit sceptical. Have you been spraying any chemicals near your fish? Can we get your water stats? Why was your water bad? Thanks

Firstly I there are a lot more knowledgably ppl on here but as they're not around I'll try and offer some help! Hopefully the experts will give better advice. It is often a Bad idea to have a male and female Betta( Fighting fish) in the same tank. they often become aggresive and it'll only end...

If its them I'm quite annoyed as the guy in the shop said they would be no problem at all. The damage has only really appeared over the last few days, the tetras and the neons have been in together for a while. I have recently introduced the corries and mollys. I've been reading about betta...

Well Just had my tank for two weeks but...... One night when me and my fiance were off to bed our Betta dived down into one of our hollow rocks and wrapped his tail around himself and went to sleep just like a little dog lol all cosy!

Yeah I'll sort out some pics in the next week or so (or how long it takes me to figure out how to attach my computer to my camera lol! :D ). He is his twin, He has a great personality. the other day he swam into this hole in a rock and kept popping his head out when the Tetras swam past lol!
