They are eating and at least one of them were having a bowel movement.. Should I seperate them so I can make sure they are going to the bathroom okay?

So before I took over of parents 46 gallon tank my dad bought two of these lovely fish. Not knowing how big they get. Now before they get two big, they are only about four inches, I need to catch them. The lfs said he would take them. However that is proving easy said then done. Any tips, other...

I have five beautiful female bettas , four crown tails, and one veil tail. Three of crown tails have protruding bellies, the one with the most noticeable belly looks like she swallowed a pea. It's not dropsy as I have had fish that have had that, it doesn't look the same. I was wondering if it...

I was at Walmart today and looked their fish over, clean tanks no dead fish. Even the betas looked in good condition and then I saw him. A stunning little crown tail. Well he came home with me, he is currently in a spare three gallon with a couple of silk fake plants and a bubble filter that I...

I need some I ideas, I have afew that look okay but no matter what I do they don't look what I want . I keep looking for broad leaf plants but I can't find any. Could someone give me some names of plant to look for?

Thank you for all the replies. I feel better knowing I'm not the only that has this, and everyone else s fish is okay.

Okay, so freaking out, I was siphoning water out of my male half moon betta tank just now and he kept playing near the tube (I was not use the wide thingy that you use on the gravel) and next thing I now is he is in the tube. I reversed the flow and got him out. I know he lost some scales cause...

Filter floss, caritages that are in your filter. I would put one in a container to your fish water from home and put into tank at school. I agree with what northeastfisherman said above about water changes. Fish in cycles take a while and can be stressful For the fish and you. Hang in there...

Is your tank at school or at home? If it's at home you would be able to multiple water changes in large amounts and that sounds like what you need to do to bring down to ammonia levels. Also you said you have have tanks at home and you could put some media from one of those tanks in as it will...

I think it might be blind, he bumps into things all the time and tends to stay against the glass. He eats fine, but I'm worried because he's not the the same size as my speckled cory (sorry I have no idea what kind of cory the other is) the albino is two or three months old not sure I bought him...

So I have three mollies in my tank. One male and two female. One female is a silver and the other looks like a calico cat. My silver is pregnant for the first time and has been pestering my male non-stop, she follows him like she were his shadow. Is this normal? the other tends to stay as far...

Thank you for the info, I guess I might have to sneak another aquarium in the house. Heehee

So I have a question, how would wild beta do in a community tank? I would love to buy one as I think they are baeutiful fish but I don't want to put a fish in there in it will be injured or injure other fish. The tank is 46gal and currently houses a cory, four danios, two angels, and three...

That blue one is soo pretty. All my fry are starting show black tails expect one and it's straight yellow. Very pretty, fish. :)

If you have back filter I would check to make sure none were sucked up, I have had that happen.
