Well as he still looks so lovely and beautiful, hes not going to good.
I dont think he will make it, i hope he does

What's the problem?

 

[myenigmaself]

Beautiful fish. I second, what's the problem?

 

[samthefishman]

He keeps going up to the surface for air.
I wouldnt mind if he did it every once in a while, But he does it all the time now.
My tank had white spot, it has now been cured tho. He never do it tho.

For ybhae
this is my fry tank,
do i need some oxygen in there?
and also do i need to original water from the breeding tank?

What kind of filter are you using in this tank?

As for water, it may not be necessary, but I used 50% from the main tank, and 50% from the tap (conditioned of course)

By the way, very nice looking male!

 

[samthefishman]

thank you, he is very nice looking,

I am using a Pro Aqua, Multi-Function Internal Power filter (Model - AHJ-311B)
Do i need to put a pump in there to give them some oxygen

 

[yhbae]

I suspect it will be ok - does that filter produce air bubbles at all? How does it work?

I hear many successful stories about growing up fries using sponge filter only.

I personally like Aqua Clear Mini for this setup as this filter will pick up much of the debree produced by food... Easier to clean...

 

[samthefishman]

Well i bought it not knowing i was missing a peice, So i cannot attach the tube to get some oxygen in there.
I have a spare pump just sitting around, should i put that in?

 

[yhbae]

Hmm... How does a corner filter work? Does it work with a power head or a air pump?

 

[samthefishman]

works with a power head
