I had three rainbow fish one died and the other two have this white stuff on its mouth. What is it and can it be cured? Could it be spread from fish to fish.

Hi all,   I have been performing a fishless cycle on my 25l tank now for 5 days.   Here is the thread covering it, to date, with all water levels and details etc etc.    In a nutshell:   Added a 1/2 dose of tetra safestart then added 3ppm  of ammonia.   The following day the ammonia level was...

I have a 10 gal tank and some of my bigger guppies got fungus, and I would like to treat them, but I also have many fry (platy and guppy) in the same tank. Is there a medication for the fry ?? I have some methyl blue, aquarium salt and Tetra Fungus Guard.  

Hi all,   I found that my Socolofi had developed a red spot a week earlier. Despite doing water change and treating the fish with salt the red spot is increasing and now the fin is tearing apart. I have separated the fish however I dont know what to do. Please help me identify and cure this...

hi, yesterday i got 8 new fish including 2 dwarf gourmanis, this morning 1 of them was lying on the bottom of the tank, gasping for breath, and i noticed it had a patch of mould growing of one side of its head, its tail also looked freyed and tattered. I have medicated the tank with some anti...

I just purchased a female guppy two days ago from our LPS, I had noticed she was a little weird looking a few hours after releasing her into the tank. She's got his white cottony stuff almost looks like its eating her skin between her top fin and tail fin. I took a picture, not very good, but...

I have a 55 Gallon Brackish with 6  young Celebes Halfbeaks, 3 young Scats, a green spotted puffer and a Knight goby.  They used to be in two tanks, but a couple of months ago, one sprung a leak and I had to combine them.  I guess because they were suddenly all together it stressed the halfbeaks...

Hey y'all,   We have a tank that contains a single male golden gourami, and it's been established for a few weeks now. Planted, etc. Less than a week ago we put a piece of manzanita wood from a LFS that we'd soaked for a few weeks and removed as much of the tannin as possible. I tied a few java...

Hello, today whilst observing my fish tank I noticed a white discolouration on the tail of my neon tetra's. Worried I looked up on the internet to see what the cause is and I came across Neon Tetra Disease but I'm not sure and seeing as the only advice I've found on how to treat it is quarantine...

Hi, I'm Kirstie and I've been keeping fish for about 3 years. I have recently upgraded my tank to a 110 litre one and added bogwood as I've always wanted a bristlenose. I currently have 3 danios (2 zebra and 1 pearl), 2 corydoras sterbai, 2 female platys and 6 baby platys. I'm sure I'll have...

Hi, i need help with my betta. I hve had him for almost a year now but recently i noticed a strange patch on his head, it wasn't white, more of a lighter shade of blue. Anyway the patch became bigger and started to change colour so i isolated him in a baby biorb (15ltr) and went to the lfs where...

Over the past week we have encountered some kind of body fungus.  We had a bout with Ich about a year ago and it seemed similar.  One of our fish encountered this fungus, so in prevention we started to treat the whole tank, seeing even single spots on several fish.  The fungus looks like ich...

Came home today and noticed white speckled clusters formed on my glass, rocks and fake plants. Not sure what it is, but its throughout most of the tank. Looks almost like the plants were dusted with light snow. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Id like to clear it up as fast as possible.

Dear members, What a stressful few days it has been in my house!!! I have no idea what happened, everything was going so well with my little adopted fish – even my known tail biter seemed okay and then everything took a turn for the worst. If you do not have time to read through all the...
