Due to new baby and job change, I have not be taking good care of my tanks, and one of my clown loach (smallest of the 3) is looking thin, color is ok. I'm back feeding them regular again, but the other 2 clowns loach are such pigs, they dont leave much for the little guy. So I was thinking...

I was feeding my Clown loaches and Redtail shark Wardley Shrimp Pellets as treats which they seem to enjoy. Well I'm just about out, wondering about trying different brand. Has anyone tried O.S.I. Foods sinking shrimp pellets? Is this good brand, or can someone recommend another brand of...

1 of my Green cory fins look like someone took bite out of them. He's tank mates are 2 more green cories, 6 zebra danios, 3 upside down cats in 30gal. All other fish fins look fine, I noticed green cory fins about 4 days ago, how long should I give them to start to heal on their own, before I...

Just a little old 5gal but it works, pulls double duty quarantine & hospital tank.

Thanks for the replys, I run a whisper 10-40 hob with poly fill. I change the poly fill every week, and do a 10 or 15gal water change every other week. During water change I lightly vaccum half the tank and wipe the inside glass down. Nitrate reading taking before each water change usually...

In my wife 29gal tank we have : 6 Danio Zebra 3 Green Cory's 3 upside down cats She wants to add "center piece fish" 1)How close is the tank to max bio load already? 2) What would be a good "center piece fish" to go along with current fish?

JP457: I always temperature match and use Kordon AmQuel to treat the new water. Odd thing is the bubbles dont seem pop and go away. I used corner of a non-ink papertowel got most of the bubbles out( kinda soak them up). Been almost a week, fish seem ok, though the corys are little...

NJ Devils Fan: Fill to same place as always which is to point that the water exiting the hob is below the water level. Matak: Change water every 2 weeks. I never had bubble like this, they remind me of soap bubblems:confused: Little bubble sticking together, they dont seem to be...

Saturday I did 10gal water change, added 3 upside down cats from 5 week quatatine, added 2 pieces of red slant rock (LFS brought). Now started notice around the top rim bubbles,they are not going away, could be something off the slant rock? Didnt do anything different during the water change...

I dont think mixing 2 medications in tank same time would be good thing to do either. You need to take deep breath, try giving detail to how, when problems started and your tank readings. No one likes losing fish, but if provide some information, there are very knowledge people in this forum...

I've good luck with Quick-cure by aq-products even at half dose (have blackskirt tetras).

I have 3 green corys, they seem to hang out together when it resting time. But when they are swimming they go their own way. But meet back at the same place everytime, personal I think its plot against my 6 zebra danios who keep trying to steal the corys food.:D

Would agree with Bantam, my RTS of about 6 years does not like new tank mates, it took about month for mine to get use to my 3 clown loaches. He still gives my black Skirt tetra 3 sec chase from time to time, but never does any harm. I would think 20g tank is to small, I think 30g is the...

Great looking tank, picture real clear. I wish I could get fish to stand still long enough to get good picture like yours. Online

Sorry, didnt work me either Online

Every other week I vaccum and do a 20-40% water change depending on my mood. Wipe inside of the glass and any plastic plants that need it & refill and add AmQuel. Clean the filter housing once a month. Change filter fiber every weekend. Lightly rise sponges every 2 weeks & check nitrates...

Great looking tank, love all the plants.

I just got 3 upside down cats, had the bag floating in the quantine tank, adding my tank water. Walk away for about 20-30 minutes, came back to find 1 had swam up out of the water. :( I put UDC back in the water and it started swimming around. Then when I was netting them out of the bag, the...

Thanks everyone for the great info :) . I guess this friday I'll be off to the LFS to get some UDC, since that when my quantine tank will be free. Online2

My wife wants to add some upside down catfish to her 30gal, which has 6 zebra danios & 3 green cory cats. How would the upside down catfish fair with the zebra danios? Are the upside down catfish much trouble to keep? Do they only feed from the surface? I know they need lot of caves. Any...
