  1. Okay, thanks. I bought a Universal Rocks Background and driftwood, would I have to toss those too since they don't absorb water like driftwood? Do you know how this may have happened in the first place? I've had them for about two years and other than moving, they've had a pretty stable life with no new fish added since getting them. I was previously feeding TetraColor XL Tropical Granuals and later switched to Hikari Vibra Bites.
  2. Hello! I currently have a 75g aquarium that I am interested in adding an Electric Blue Jack Dempsey to. The measurements are 48Lx18Wx22H. I was wondering what, if any, tankmates would be good for this type of setup. I've read that Denison Barbs are an option, has anyone had success with them with an EBJD? The tank currently has moderate/low amount of plants (with plans for more) and plenty of wood/hiding spaces. My filtration is a Fluval 407 canister filter. Thanks in advance!
  3. Hello! I have around 15 powder blue dwarf gouramis and three three-spot gouramis. Surprisingly, I lost two powder blues this month. The first one developed what looked like a broken/bent back but continued to live for about a month. I thought it was genetics but within a week it quickly declined and passed away. I had a second gourami that began to look extremely skinny with uneven bumps (almost like protruding ribs). I did a full General Cure treatment but wasn't able to save him. I looked at different diseases and came across Dwarf Gourami Disease. Recently I have begun to notice other signs on a few of my other gouramis that match the description of this virus. I have also noticed small holes near their head and some (one in particular) have started developing red patches. I was wondering if someone could confirm this as Dwarf Gourami Disease or something else. If it is DGD, I've heard that there is no cure/treatment. Is this something that is going to run its course and I'll have to start over? If so, how could I best prevent this from being transmitted to my next fish, even if they're not gouramis? Thanks in advance!
