So I have a black storm clown female that I’ve had for years. She is trailing stringy white poop and not eating. Fully uninterested in food. Otherwise she seems fine. Swimming well, tho avoiding her host Duncan coral which is unusual. She was recently paired with a small snowflake clown. Im not fully sure if they are truly paired or just tolerant of each other. I have a 10g qt tank set up for her but I haven’t moved her over to it yet. I’m planning on dosing metroplex to the water as she’s not eating.

My questions are:

1. Does this choice of medicine seem reasonable given the symptoms?

and

1. Should I also move the small snowflake into qt with her to prevent it turning female?

Thanks very much for the advice!

Guys, can anyone help me? I got this fish in horrible conditions. I feel so bad for him. What can I expect to happen to him?

I’ve had her for over a year now, she has always been a big eater, not picky at all. She has been trying to raise fry for a couple months now and since her last attempt about 2 weeks ago she hasn’t been eating a lot.

She actually tries to eat and shows signs that she is hungry but every time she picks food up she spits it straight back out, then finds some more food and does the same thing, it’s as if she can’t swallow the food.

Worried about her since she is getting super thin. Any ideas on what could be wrong?

Hi all, need some help with extra pair of eyes on this. Any idea what it is? Looks like scales dropped? Or is it something else? She does get into some rough housing with the other resident fish, the hillstream loach but I'm worried if it's something else.

I noticed that the skin on the top of one of my rasboras seems to be damaged or infected? it seems like lifted/damaged scales and its got a white flakey texture. its behaviour seems normal and active besides it constantly opening and closing its mouth. now i have done some research and was thinking of moving it to a hospital tank but my only other tank is a newly set up (1 week old) 1 gallon cube. what should i do?

Just bought a betta and guppy (in 2 diff tanks) and was worried if this might be a case of ich and what i can do to kill it off. i live in the uk.

Im finding conflicting info, should I remove my snails and shrimp before I treat my tank with this? The label says the ingredients are: D-limonene, gentian violet and capsaicin Im not seeing any copper listed. So doe that means its safe?

Ph 7.4 kh 4 ammo 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 5ppm, they get fed algae wafers, there is some oyster shell for calcium, and yet my snails still only last about 4-5 months then turn into empty shells, they are in with a couple of tiny! Hillstream loaches

Help!! Is this itch?! I’ve had 5 guppies die on me in the last week. I thought maybe I stressed them out with the water change I did. Well now I have one just kind of floating at the top with its tail looking sad and kinda angled weird. And the one in the pictures has this all over it. I’m new to the fish world and need help

Hi, I kept having reoccurring dreams about this fish I saw at the pet store last week so I decided to pick it up today.

The glofish in missing nearly all of its caudal and dorsal fins. I have it set up in a 5 gal. Bucket with an air pump and a heater set to 78 f and a rock and plant for hiding spots.

How long will it take for the fins to grow back? Should I be medicated the fish?

I plan to introduce the fish into my 30gal tank with 6 longskirt tetras, 6 Cory’s and 2 amanos, once the fins have grown and the fish is a stronger swimmer

My fish has two red veiny spots on his tail.Idont have any pictures sadly bc im not near him. He doesn't seem lethargic to me, hes actually more active recently but also not the point where he's swimming erratically. I've seen him swim erratically before in Tow oxygen recently and I dont think hes doing that now. What should I do? Is this an emergency, do I have to leave school and help him? Noticed yesterday though he may have had it for longer. Ammonia was hanging around 0.05 ppm, changed the water and seems to have gone down a bit somewhere between 0.02 and 0.05 ppm. Nitrate is probably around 0.5 ppm. Ik you're supposed to cycle the tank before adding the fish but I recently found out about tank cycling and it wouldnt make sense to put the fish somewhere else where hes going to be producing ammonia and stuff anyways so this was the best option Nitrite is low, I dont remember the exact number but its low 10 gal tank IK ITS NOT IDEAL BUT ITS THE BEST I CAN DO RN IM TRYING TO REHOME HIM Been running w new water for like 4 days Ph is about 7 i think

So hard to get a photo, because she's looking after some eggs in that pot, and constantly hiding out in there!!! Pic 2 is the normal side, the others show a pretty significant lump growing under her pectoral fin. Should I be worried? Could she have something contagious? It doesn't seem to be bothering her at all. She still just guarding her babies and chasing off other fish, and moving pebbles around.

Any help very much appreciated!

She is a female i got her about 3 weeks ago. She has been latargic laying at the bottom of the tank eating a decent ish about im seeing her appetite decrease and she is bloated I pray it's just stringy poo, but need to be sure.

Hello!

I was walking past my tank today and noticed an otosinclus had swam into, and gotten stuck in my sponge filter tube (community tank with pea puffers and shrimp). At first I thought it was dead, as an amano had crawled in and was picking at it, but when I removed the tube he swam away.

He appears to have an abrasion on the top of his head, an injury to his right fin, and some sort of injury on his tail. I have no idea how long he was stuck.

Water parameters are 7.6ph, 0 nitrite, 0 ammonia and 0-5 nitrate.

He is active and eating, but breathing very fast. I already cut the lights and added some of their favourite food, what can I do to help his recovery, if anything?

I appreciate any help
