    Hello On A Sad Note!

    I did research myself & came to the conclusion it was swim bladder. I did mention that in my very first post in the emergency section. I was asking if anyone agreed, had other ideas of what it could be, & any other treatments that I hadn't done already. I didn't know if it was ok to repost, as...

    I'm very sad to report Mr. Kitty has passed. Thanks to everyone who tried to help. Now I'm worried about my dwarf Gourami. Should I do anything?

    I thought that was the case about temp, but wanted to ask to make sure. I'm going to adjust it lower as y'all suggested. I wasn't aware that Cory's needed to be in groups until I started reading about them on here. I feel absolutely horrible now! All this time, I thought I was taking such good...

    Hello On A Sad Note!

    Thanks, that's what I figured. Was just hoping I'd get more advice by now. It's been over a day.

    Hello On A Sad Note!

    I'm new here, but not a complete newbie to fish. I've had my current tank (only a 10 USG) for about 2 years. Planning on getting a larger one very soon, probably a 30 USG. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with Mr Kitty, my Cory cat. I've already posted in the "emergency" section, but so far...

    Cory Cat Spinning Like Torpedo

    Nicola, I GREATLY appreciate your feedback. He's not any better today. Pretty much looks like he's dead, but he is breathing. I'll change the water as you said, then go get the tonic. They didn't have any at petsmart when I went yesterday, so driving into town. Do you really mean for the temp...

    Anyone?!?! Please! I need ANY ideas or suggestions. I went back to petsmart & got a 5 gallon tank to put him in. I added water from the main tank & put him in it. Has a heater for that size. Should I have put in new water & used quick start? Any advice at this point is very much needed as...

    You know, I should've mentioned that I had a frog in there as well. Had flippers for 5 months, he was doing great, went on vacation, & he was dead when we got home. Neighbor was taking care of all our critters for us daily, & has done so several times. (Meaning he had cared for the frog before...

    I added 2 new shells the week of 4th July. I don't have a q tank. Can I just get like a beta tank or does he need filter? I have a small heater in the tank. Can't remember what temp it keeps it at, just that it is made for tropical fish & 10 gallon tank. Is there a general parasite med I can...

    I have a 10 gallon tank. Have has this tank setup for about 2 years. Right now I have a mystery snail, dwarf Gourami & Cory cat. For the last 3 days my Cory has been swimming funny. It started with him just laying on his side at the bottom of tank. When I tapped the tank he got up & swam...
