    White fuzzy, stringy stuff in tank and on fish...

    I have an Oranda and after a 75% water change yesterday, I noticed he's been acting different. He stays at the bottom of the tank, and generally in the same spot. I've noticed a fair amount of white, scaly (almost like shedding) floating throughout the tank, and on his head. It's white to clear...

    Two white spots on Oranda's head...

    I have a white Oranda with an orange head, and this morning I noticed that there are two noticeably sized white patches on his head. Can any one tell me what they are? I can get pics if necessary.

    Are Oranda's carnivorous?

    WARNING: This message gets gory I just found my plecostomous dead on the bottom of my tank. My oranda is just fine, but the plecostomous is literally cut in half. Sorry for the details, but all the organs including eyeballs are gone, all that remains is the tail, and bones.

    Why does my water keep turning green?

    Why does my water keep turning green?

    Yes, it's a Biocube29. I only have 1 of the fluorescent lights in, as I took the other one out. Is the actinic lighting the purple "moon lights"? I used to have those on all night, but haven't since this happened. By the way, now my water is cloudy/misty/foggy and my ammonia is .25, nitrates...

    Just tested my water, are these level appropiate for an Oranda?

    I would love to do that, but I'm trying to avoid use of a lot of chemicals, how would I control the algae?

    I woke up this morning and my plecostomus bit my Oranda.

    29 gallon tank, common pleco from Petco, still very small, 2-3 inches. I wasn't aware that they had aggressive tendencies, petco did not inform me of this.

    I woke up this morning and my plecostomus bit my Oranda.

    I've noticed a change in my plecostomus. He won't leave the area of this certain rock, even if I take the rock out of the tank, my Oranda has been avoiding that area too I've noticed. When I woke up this morning I found a raised area on the Oranda's left side, with a cut in the center...

    Just tested my water, are these level appropiate for an Oranda?

    Petco said that 29 gallons would suffice... well that sucks. Is that the cause of my cloudy water appearance?

    I have a 29 gallon Oceanic Biocube, I have a tiny plecostomus, which I've been made aware today is horrible for my goldfish. I only have the one Oranda.

    Just tested my water, are these level appropiate for an Oranda?

    I did 50% today when I noticed the cloudiness, should I just repeat this daily?

    Just tested my water, are these level appropiate for an Oranda?

    Ammonia is at .25 I had an algae bloom earlier in the week, and I've been struggling with it since. I had it cleared out with good looking water, and earlier today I noticed that my water is getting cloudy again, and I'm not quite sure what to do.

    Nitrate 0 Nitrite 1.0 GH 150 Gh 120 Ph 7.5 All that the kit tells me is how to raise or lower the numbers, but not whether or not they're healthy levels for my fish.

    Why does my water keep turning green?

    Sorry for the double post. Earlier today, I did a 50% water change. While the water has cleared up a bit, it's now very hazy, clear, not green, but very hazy

    Why does my water keep turning green?

    It's not in direct sunlight but I generally kept the floureacent light on all day and switched to the purple uv light at night. The filter before the bio-balls was getting so dirty that water wasn't able to pass through it effeciently and my water pump would run dry. I can keep the light off...

I have two plastic plants and a rock, and large polished stone gravel for the bedding, all items were purchased at Petco. I have to do 50% water changes 3 times a...
