    Swollen silver dollar

    Hi, I’m reaching out in case anyone may be able to help. I have some experience with tropical fish, I’ve had a 150 gallon tank running for 20 and have lost fish over the years. Right now I have a silver dollar around 15 years old that seems to be bloated. I feed him peas (skinless) and have...

    Id Shark Skin Condition

    Hi guys! Hope you and your fish are well! I really can't get over how well my IDs health has been. Other than what appears to look like a small hole from where his injury originally started I can live with it and he (or she) seems to be living with it as well. Thanks for all your input, just...

    Id Shark Skin Condition

    Thanks, he seems to be well, I do notice he will go up to the top of the water surface a few times, not sure if he's going for air or feeling for food but he'll hang around at the top for awhile and when he's done hes ok for awhile. I should try to capture it and get your take on it. Also, I...

    I would rather have the table or cabinet bigger than the tanks length but until you find or build one I would center the tank so there is a 2 1/2" over hang on both sides instead of 5" on the one side. The water level line may not be level because of the floor, most floors on not 100% level. I...
