Thanks but she died this morning.

My female balloon molly seems to be paralyzed on one side as she does not move her fin on on side and it just sticks out looking very stiff. She stays in one place near the surface of the water in the corner of the tank. When prodded she swims about with only one fin and tail functioning. She...

Will try the water changes. Unfortunately I lost another molly and the last one seems to have developed a few white spots on him. I am based in Mumbai, India and will ask the LFS to check if he could probably order one in for me. Thanks for all your help :)

I do a 30% water change every week. I clean the filter every week as well. I am guessing the water quality must be bad then. The white dust appears as a tiny spec(s) on the fins of the fish. By the time these specks start to show the fish looks a little unwell and swims in a shaky manner...

Thankyou and good luck with your tank as well :)

Yes I did. I wasn't aware of the capacity and requirements of fish keeping at that time. So this time round I decided to get it right.

Nope. I gave them away to a friend before I left on vacation. He still has them :)

Ok so am gonna go with the shrimps and endlers or maybe just a betta. Can I keep a betta together with shrimps?

Oh alright so danios are crossed out. And what about neon tetras or cardinals? Those are tiny fish right?

Thankyou all for the advice. To answer the last question I am planning on doing a fishless cycle by adding ammonia and wait up to get the level decreased over time,then do a water change and add my fish. From the above suggestions I think am gonna keep a betta or probably a couple of guppies...

A 20 gallon tank for a goldfish??? I had no idea! Why are they commonly kept in fishbowls then? Am pretty sure a regular fishbowl carries not more than 6 litres of water.

So after months I have decided to get my 3 gallon tank up and running again. I have the following 2 questions and need all the advice I can get to ensure I have a nice happy tank :) Q1 Are the following options possible to house in a 3 gallon tank, and which would be the best option? A) a pair...
