    My Dwarf Gourami has been sick since the 13th with what I believe is swim bladder disease. I isolated him in a quarantine tank and he seems to be doing a little better (at the start he was laying on the substrate sideways and could not swim upright). Now he can at least stay upright while...

    Hi! Can anyone please help with telling me if this is a fungal infection or HITH or something else? Iā€™m not sure what it could be and I want to treat it accordingly.

    Corry catfish black spot

    I just got albino Corry cat fish from petco. They got a brand new shipment, and within about 4 hours at home 2 of 6 passed away. They seemed healthy and active like the others. They each had two black spots above the eye brow. I would love to know what it could mean. Should I treat the other fish?

    Found worms?

    I am just setting up a new bristle nose breeding tank and as I was moving wood and plants from my old tank I found these. I have no idea what they are. Are they parasites or unsafe? Are they safe for fish?
