I started a tank about a month or so ago, have had the same with in it for that time. I noticed one fish flicking over that time quite a bit, was told it was probably stray current in the water he doesn't like because I've had him already for a month without any signs of ich showing on the...

Here these may be a bit better to see its belly. My link My link

Not sure on the age. The pictures are a bit deceptive. Her belly is a decent size its just hard to get an underneath photo. She has had a gravid spot for about 10-12 days now.

Hi guys I was wondering if anyone could tell me when to expect this swordtail to give birth, it has been acting a bit weird the last 2 days and I am wondering if it is because she is about to give birth. She is trying to stay away from the male swordtail right now (they used to stay very close...

I had the fungus eliminator in it. I since changed the water a few times so I think any medication would be out, also it has been 2-3 days since I added it. Yeah looks like he has lost a bit of weight. He is a very skinny fish now. Thanks for the advice I will try feed him that.

yeah the dots are about the size of a grain of sugar. he just has like 2 left they were all over and a lot worse. So that part SEEMS to be clearing up. His mouth is okay, no he is not pooing, and nope spits everything out. it might just be old I m not sure I will get a picture of him up here...

okay cool thank you :) yes I have like 6 live plants now, changed the tank 30% again today anyways but readings were 0 across the board again today. I still add stability at night, not sure if i need to anymore. New problem again (argh!) The silver molly in the hospital tank is acting very...

Well did my tests for my main tank today and it reads. 0 ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 7.6 ph. Not sure what that means. still stuck mid cycle? not sure if it should read with a tiny nitrate or not.

Okay thanks. All the other fish look great. Main tank has good readings now still 0.25 nitrite but the rest are good. Okay I will change both tanks again today and start a carbon filter in the hospital tank since the silver fish in the hospital tank looks good now, but I want to wait few days...

Well its not really the spine is but rest is rotting, also most the time she just lays on her side now >< almost looks like a giant dead organ, okay here comes some pics sorry for the quality of them.

Sure I will get a pic soon, the spine is straight now (almost) only the slightest bend but it still does not move the tail, its belly is very boated and it has trouble keeping balanced. Large patch of skin that seems to be rotting. I am using the fungus eliminator as it says it treats cotton...

Yeah today that platty has a large patch in it of skins that's degrading right at the side of the bend someone please help its getting worse.

Main tank changed water again today, Nitrites are now 0-.25 Its between those because its not as dark as the .25 shows. WOOT finally some progress!

Yep I use a gravel vac to get the water out. I used the fungus eliminator again it says it will help with swim bladder. I have not seen it poo in 2 days, last time large normal string. I sure hope this is not fish TB as I have another fish in with it :( its better but i'm scared to move it back...
