Thanks glolite - I hope you're right. The others have all perked up and he seems a bit better now. I put him back with his friends as I figured it was better fro a shoaing fish to be with his friends. He did jump out of the little tank earlier and ended up on the floor. looks like he now has a...

Cheers for your quick reply. It's a 300 litre tank and all levels are ok (ammonia, ph, nitrite, nitrate). The heater is on a thermostat and the temp is 27 degress c. We've had them at least 8 weeks and no probs until now. We've put new fish in today- rosy barbs and neon rainbowfish, so the...

Please help. My Debawi cats have suddenly gone strange. at least 2 are lying on the floor, tying to swim and then falling down again. Ive got a floating breeding tank and so put the first one I noticed (he was caught up in a plant) in there, but coulndt then find the others. Now at least one...

Thanks wilder. I worry for all of the other fish. Im probably over-reacting but there are a lot of fish in there, and they are all very dear to us. It may sound awful, but I also worry about the expense if I lost too many / all. everyone is still swimming around and happy, they all come out...

Cheers - no other spots noticed. worried this could just be a discoloration in the molly I hadnt noticed before... Would it be best to wait and make sure it is whitespot, or is it safe to treat as "just in case"

after the lights went out (11pm) he swam back into the shoal. Ill keep an eye out. Will get some whitespot treatment. Will the treatment damage my filter bacteria > SlyT

ill try for a pic. the debauwi. It may not be related, but is that behaviour normal, just lying there ?

it did look like cotton I think. The spot is quite small less than a millimetre. One of the debauwis is lying in the corner of the tank, barely moving. Is there anything I can do for him ?

Cheers - Id done 50% just before I noticed the molly. I darent do any mor just yet. Ill get some meds tomorrow afternoon. Anything else I can do ? SlyT

Right, Not sure what to do. Black molly has a whitespot on its head. Also looked like it had some white bits round the mouth, but never looked at him so closely. Stats Nitrate = 20 Nitrite = 0 Ammonia = 0 PH = 7.4 My wife saw another molly (a white one) rubbing himself along the bottom of...

Cool - thanks guys. I think I will give it a go - Im getting some moss on bogwood this week, and the tank is getting more and more heavily planted as time goes on - I replant all of my cuttings and they all seem to flourish too so now there are tons of hiding places ! Im thinking of going...

Hello peeps. Ive got a 300ltr tank which is fairly heavily planted. I use TPN+ and AE Liquid Carbon. My stocking is as follows 3 baby angels, 8 zebra danios 8 black widow tetra 6 corys 5 mollies 4 three spot gouramis 4 dwarf gouramis 4 Odessea Barbs I was planning on getting 6-10 cherry...

BUMP

I cannot find him/it now :( All 4 Gouramis are accounted for, but none have the little mark. It looked like there was some redness, but as he is a dwarf, it could be just to do with where it was. looked on top of skin dont know about the other qs really as he was new - no apparent bloating. I...

Anyone ? :unsure:
