    Betta has Fin Rot

    I've used melafix for fin rot on my fish before. I used to treat the whole tank but I didn't really see any changes so I made a "hospital" tank for my fish which is a smaller tank and I treated the fish with fin rot in there. I noticed a lot more of a difference when the fish is in a smaller...

    In my 75 gallon I have 4 female swordtails(well at least I think. One of my females is starting to grow a males tail) I'm not worried about that though.

    Neon Tetras keep dying please help.

    Well I just took two more of the bodies out and the two do look like some fish has bitten them and maybe even tried eating them. I'm not sure if that's because they were stuck to the filter or not. Our nitrate is 20 today and nitrite is .5 and our PH is now 7.5. We keep the waters worm because I...

    Breeding Bettas help

    We stopped trying to mate them, we didn't want to stress them out too much. We are getting a new male from an online breeder. He said that the male will breed with any female and we have a new female whos also ready to breed. Have you ever bought fish online? I'm kind of worried.

    Breeding Bettas help

    I also can't tell if they have already spawned and we didn't see. I looked up what eggs look like in a nest and there are some spots that may be eggs in our nest but it could also just be a bunch of bubbles.

    It's been about a day now. My female still has the stripes and my male keeps rebuilding his nest. But whenever the female gets under the nest, he chases her away and she hides for a little while until she feels comfortable enough to try again. There's plenty of hiding places and we still have...

    Does my Betta Splenden have fin rot, or is he tail biting?

    One of my Bettas had fin rot and it left a white edge around the fin and the rays in her fin started to show as the infection continued to move through the fin. From the pictures I don't see signs of fin rot from my experience but everyone's experience is a little different. I'd say do a little...
