    Aquarium Salt with fish

    Redtailed Sharks, from Meijer. They were rescues from someone, we paid $6 each for four of them, one died so far after half a year. My question is, would adding a small amount of salt to their tanks help them as well? I haven't added anything to it at all, and we have well water, not even...

    Opinions on aquarium salt with smaragdina?

    I'm setting up a 60l tank for B. smaragdina, hopefully the fish will go in in about a month (waiting for tank to cycle and breeder's females to grow out). I've seen mixed opinions on using aquarium salt with Betta, with some people swearing by it and other people saying to avoid. Does anyone...

    Injured Platy - What To Do Now?

    What to do!! When I checked the tanks this morning was surprised to see a large red mark on the side of the adult female platy. She seems ok in herself, just injured. I suspect she'd been attacked by one/some of the 5 month old platy fry as their older sibling started a fight with adult male...
