Okay, so I'm having problems with my fish. I started my new fish tank about 6 weeks ago (it's a 28 gallon freshwater tank). At the moment I have 3 long finned black skirted tetras, three other type of tetras (I don't know their name- they're orange with black and white), 5 small neons, 2 sunset tequilla male guppies and 1 golden gourami. Just in the past two days another gourami and one molly died. In the past (maybe 3 weeks ago) a different molly and 2 other guppies died (I figured those were just stress deaths, since they died not long after moving into my tank). So now I'm having problems with my fish being sick. Both of the fish that recently died were sick, but I don't know what of. They were very innactive all of the sudden, and were hiding in corners and going around my heater a lot. Also, they barely ate, and they gulped at the water all day. After three days of this they died. So now a few of my other fish are acting this way, and I don't know what sickness they have, so I don't know how to treat them. I've had the usual water balance problems, but now I have nitrites low, ammonia low, and ph is a little high, but not by much. Each week I do a 25% water change, and I have prepared the water in advance. I also have oxygen supplied into their tank, and add aquarium salt on a regular basis. Oh, in case it makes a difference, I have three live plants and two fake plants. I had a moss ball, but I took it out because it was getting too much algae. Please help so I can treat my fish! I add salt because even though it's freshwater, salt keeps fish healthy. It helps their fins stay healthy, and makes the fish more active. Also, I do make sure there is no chlorine in the new water.

I have kept 3 freshwater tank ranging from 110g to 7g for over a year now with bi-weekly water changes and find the workload very easy. If I were to get into saltwater how much of a drastic step maintenance wise is it. Ive read a few ways to maintain one but would like to know from experienced people how they keep their tank healthy and also what size tank they have. I know the bigger the tank, the easier to maintain so I figure about 100-150g. What can I expect on a daily to weekly to monthly basis? I expect to have live rock in it but no living organisms other than fish (since I dont want to have to feed those types of things squid with a baster and what not. Thanks in advance!

I have a 55 Gallon aquarium and all I have in it are 6 Cherry Barbs and a rainbow Shark. I have tried adding Tiger Barbs and a pleco in but it seems that every time I add either they don't tend to last more than a week or two. I do a water change every week and my water cycle is in balance so I just don't understand why my barbs and shark seem to be the only fish capable of living in the tank. Well I have been letting them float for 20-30 minutes but I never added tank water into the bag before.

I am about to start a freshwater tropical aquarium. I will have a 30 gallon tank. I LOVE loaches, yoyos and kuhlies in particular. What other fish (and how many) could live with either (or both, if they're compatible) in a 30 gallon tank?

yeah i was wanting some cardinal tetra's but i already have some guppies like 4 and i was wanting some kind of fish that is about the size of guppies and friendly with guppies and that live in freshwater and i think cardinal tetras are perfect so im asking.....

i have a 10 gl freshwater tank with 1 paradise fish in it . i haven't been able to clean it in forever because he had spawned with another one and at first i didn't want to disturb the eggs... i figured they wouldn't hatch because the water quality was half brutal but i wanted to keep them around just out of curiosity.. they did end up hatching and i still have some swimming around now... but like i said, the water quality is brutal. so anyway, lately i had seen little teeny tiny white worms, like so small they didn't even look like anything at first but scratches on the glass.. then i noticed there were a few that were a bit longer and did look noticeably more like worms. i did a bit of research and found a lot of people saying they were harmless micro organisms that are always in your tank but come out more with excess food/waste... whiched seemed to make sense to me, so i let it go . my paradise fish had been seen eating a few of them anyway so i figured well hey, he could use a bit of live food... anyway, tonight i went in to take a look at the fry. all of a sudden i noticed this kind of fuzzy pinkish type blob at the top, not very big at all mind you. at first i figured it was just a chunk of food floating around.. then i realized there was another one not far from it. and before i knew it, i could see 8 or 10 floating around.. what really got me is that there was this one weird floating thing that almost looked like... i don't know, it's so hard to explain.. almost like .. a black spiral-coneish shaped snail shell, only it looked really soft and sort of blobby. it had this one blob sticking off that was kind of beige in the middle of it?? basically it looked reallly extremely weird, so i immediately removed it. sorry guys, i know it sucks but i was too freaked out to get a picture of it . i've looked on the internet a bit and i don't think it was an actual snail or anything because i checked out some photos and none resemble it whatsoever. after removing the strange blobs, i took out my paradise fish and turned on the filter... probably going to lose my fry but i don't even care so much about them as i do with my paradise fish . kind of sucks cause i didn't think they'd hatch from the beginning but i'd rather not have strange things growing in my apartment... if anyyybody knows anything or has any suggestion on what strange organism it could be, pleaaaase help haha

I have a brackish water (part fresh-, part saltwater) aquarium with 8 spotted freshwater puffer fish in it and 1 African leaf fish. They are fed only frozen bloodworms and small aquarium snails. I live in southwest Florida and use tap water that is treated for the fish. I go to Petsmart sometimes and take some of the snails invading their aquariums to feed my fish and have recently noticed this very tiny hair-like worm parasite that swims up out of the rocks in the aquarium every now and then in a squiggly motion. An employee there stated that they are aware of these "worms" and that they believe they are from a fire-belly toad aquarium but are really unsure as to what they are. I'm having a hard time getting rid of them, though they don't seem to be directly affecting my fish. I know they're probably not anchor worms, because they don't attach themselves to the fish. I can sometimes see them curl up in a ball and when they do this it's hard to keep track of them, because they end up looking like the little air bubbles floating through the water. If anyone has any idea what these are and how to get rid of them, please let me know all that I can do and what to buy. I've only tried these alka-seltzer-looking tablets that you drop in the aquarium (I forget what they are called) that are supposed to get rid of some aquarium parasites and then when that didn't work, I tried simply cleaning out the aquarium and everything in it with scorching hot water, including replacing the filter inserts and everything. I just don't want to use anything dangerous for my puffers. Please help!
