    Neon Tetra Swim Bladder!

    This morning, when I woke up I realised my Neon Tetra got swim bladder. What are some fixes that could work on such a small fix. I have already tried giving it small peas but he doesn't seem to want to eat them.

    Brooklynella or Ich? And what are alternative treatments?

    Is this ick?

    Hey everyone! We just got our first aquarium! Iā€™ve noticed the gourami is stressed out and had these white spots. Itā€™s ick right? If it is should I be worried about knocking out my cycle when I treat? How should I avoid an ammonia spike ?
