I'm at work right now so I couldn't tell you the other info but my hubby took the deceased fish and a couple of the really bad small ones to the pet store- all the water readings are good- this appears to be fin rot. They told us to use Melafix so we bought that and are going to do our best to...

I will apologize in advance that I have not read the stickies but we have an emergency and it's 11:47p at night so I will have to send hubby to Wal-Mart if you suggest it. Stats- 75 gallon freshwater Occupants- (2) large breeding angelfish, and approximately 30 other small tetras/gourami's,1...

Seriously, I'm a newbie to this site and I'm just going to say what I think. Stop wasting your time on this guy. Either A. he is totally screwing with all of you just for fun. or B. he is absolutely not listening to all the advice and instructions you are trying to give and you can't help him or...

Oye do I feel dumb. Many of my fish with the red eyes, are red eye tetras. That is the type of red I see on some of the fish. The owner of the fish store said they are totally fine. Doh! But he did say he was impressed that I even noticed. Nice. Looks like I have ALOT to learn! Thanks to all...

Ok, not to sound stupid, but what about my fish that aren't infected? Will this stuff be ok for them? And thanks for the suggestion!

Aaaahhhhh.... No problem! I live in Pasco County, Florida. :)

I'm not following, you need my location?

That's a great idea using a water purifier for the tap water going in! I'll definitely do that but I haven't changed the water at all yet. Wilder-is there a bacterial med you can recommend to me?

No, the tank water has no smell at all. My tap water though occasionally smells like egg. It's a recurring problem where I live and the county just bought the water company and is supposed to be fixing it. No current egg smell from the tap water, I just don't trust it because of the past with it...

My crippled Gourami has always been that way. No other odd behavior from any of the other fish. No gasping for air or hanging out at the top, they just seem normal. The water was cloudy from the gravel settling from what I was told. As to the tap water, it just is gross, tastes yucky with an...

Sorry Wilder, I didn't see these questions... Any pools of blood in the eyes. Not that I can see. Any white specs behind the lens of the eye. No Does the eyes look cloudy. Not at all. Any excess slime on the body or gills. None I would stop using the cycle if its by nutrafin as it not very...

The miscellaneous fish are all tetras: neon, black, blind cave, yellow, rainbow, and glow. No one has any black spots or patches. And I have not lost one fish yet. Not even my crippled gourami who is really pathetic, but 8 months old, he just lays on the bottom and swims on his side (he has...

Oops, a little more info...... - All are eating normally from what I can see. - No one is acting oddly. - I have the lights on 8 hours per day, from 1p-9p, set with a timer, keeping with old owner's schedule. - They all eat 1x/day. - This is a very peaceful tank, no fighting that I have ever...

Hello All, I'm a newbie and just got a beautiful 75 gallon aquarium last friday with (2) 5yo bonded Angelfish, some gourami, 1 bala shark, some little tetras, and miscellaneous little ones and some snails. I was sitting on my floor looking up at them and noticed half of my fish have what appear...
