    Ok thank you all so much for telling me about stunted fish and sharing examples. I didnt realize I could cause damage to my fish without being able to see it.

    Yes I did research the fish and adult size, tank requirements, and compatibility with other fish. I never ever planned on keeping the fish in 10g forever... as ive stated over and over and over again. They WILL receive a larger tank. I'm not stupid. I know I'm responsible for an animals...

All the fish were tiny when i bought them and yes they...

    I didnt ask for advice about how to take care of my fish. I know how to take care of my fish. I asked about help in dealing with the fist health problem Ive ever experienced with my fish and if anybody else had ideas as to why it happened concerning the recent change in food. I am NOT a poor...

    yes Wilder i know...everyone says its overstocked. I honestly don't care, that's not what this post was about. They're all smaller fish.. I don't see the point in wasting hundreds of dollars on a 100gallon tank for a 2" fish. My fish are healthy, happy and taken care of extremely well. The water...

    the 10 gallon tank was just our starter tank... its doing great, the fish are happy and healthy and have never ever had any health problems what-so-ever in the last year until this morning. I've never ever had a fish die while in my care. I am aware of how large each fish gets, I did a ton of...
