I would have an Oscar Cichlid if I could afford the tank. Also some Corys (not in the same tank as the oscar (: ). Last one I had died for some reason so I won't risk killing another but they are very sweet.

I realized that was a little rude...sorry. I also read further and realized you all were mostly trolling. I do have a little something against the whole conspiracy theories thing in general because it causes unrest, as can be viewed above in my own comment. I guess most of these people were just...

I feel like when people post something with the single purpose of stating something they know is controversial, it is only because they want people to get angry so they have something to say and they can look smart with a premeditated argument that no one wants to hear. But "nobody needs to get...

It's day four and the little guy passed away. I found him right next to the bubble-maker with his nose in the gravel and his tail straight upwards. I buried him in my flower garden. Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions to try to help him. I did everything I could, but he still died to early...

I sort of agree. Outside of his froggy best friend, my betta didn't like any of his shorter lived roommates, two of which died of unknown causes so it's not implausible that he killed them going off of how small they were.

I have a five gallon with a betta. He had an African dwarf frog roommate who was his best friend. My betta even entered a depression when my cat ate the frog. I also had a cory catfish. You could have an algae eater if you want. I've also heard that both bettas and bottom-dwellers like guppies...

Ok so day three of what I think is Columnaris and he's somehow still alive! The hole is the same size but after two salt baths and two doses of anti-bacterial medication the white glaze is completely gone! This should mean, if I'm right that it's columnaris, he's already getting better fast...

Did it help to use any baths or meds? My fish is somehow still alive! I gave him a salt bath yesterday, which immediately helped. He looked way better. about four hours later, I gave him some anti-bacterial meds. He didn't change when I gave him that. Today, I gave him a salt bath, but I think...

Thank you. I love him very much. I really haven't had him very long but I don't think I've ever felt such a strange bond to such a small creature. I usually just flush them, but I think that I will give him a real funeral. He is dearly loved.

I guess I'm supposed to talk about my fish so here we go! Right now I have a betta - although maybe not for long. I actually joined TFF to ask a question because he is VERY sick and probably past saving. Aside from him, I had a betta a LONG time ago that I killed by over feeding (I still feel...

It was eating just fine two days ago. I feed it every other day but I skipped today because he seemed like food wasn't a top priority. Figured it might help to not make anything worse by giving him more food. I do plan to euthanize him if he isn't at all better after two or three days of...

Ok. My tank has five different live plants and two plastic betta leaves. Lots of fine gravel (probably too much), a fully functional filter, excellent water as of now, some algae but not too much, a few basic decorations, some plastic rocks, some real rocks that I deep cleaned, and is kept at...

I am using a computer - no picture taking device available sorry. I can try to describe any specific questions about the wound. What do you mean by tank setup?

My betta was doing fine a few days ago. I went on a weekend - long trip and left him in good hands. Upon my return, he was lying on the bottom of the tank not moving. He has barely moved today. I noticed a gaping hole in his side that the fishsitters apparently didn't see. It's a little white...
