This morning when I went in to feed my betta I noticed that his tail looked like it is curling under. It looks to me like black balls (he is a black fish) at the ends of his fins. Does anyone know what this is and what I need to do about it. It's really scaring me I don't want to lose my fish...

Hello, My dad has four oscar fish who are all babies. Today he and I noticed that they have little white dots all over their body. I think it's something called ich (well in the betta world thats what its called.) When I treat my bettas for ich I use something called bettazing it works well for...

Well if people actually read profiles I said im a new breeder. I have bred before but I was just trying to find different things to feed them because everyone does it differently.

I have crowntails and veiltails I breed both types. I'm getting into breeding guppies now. If the fish in your personal pic is yours then wow you have nice fish. I have a question what do you feed your fry from day 1 up until the day they are able to be fed what I feed the adults. Thanks. Amanda
