  1. I have 4 reticulated hillstream loaches in a 50 low boy stream biotope and I noticed last week that 2 of them have these discolored bumps on both their fins, it hasn’t gotten any worse or better l, or spread to the other 2, im just not really sure what it is exactly. Any ideas?

    all my parameters are spot on so I know it has nothing to do with water quality or parameters31BE421E-B9EB-4D24-8A15-460DD2BAF4EA.png.5980fc18c1a3707cdb6abc1905b41bce.png

  2. I’ve had this discus (darker3F7775C5-AE3E-479C-A12F-70575DE55DA3.jpeg.14b218a61ea0819f1d2510b2db37f329.jpeg one to the left) for about 5 months, I have 10 others and few few breeding pairs, and he is currently paired with an orange checkerboard…. But he is the only one I don’t know the morph/name of, does anyone have any idea, I was thinking he was a wild type, maybe a Brown Batata Discus but I honestly have no clue, any other ideas? It would be great for some other opinions

  4. if you are looking for some more basic easy to find fish to stock, you can go with maybe black substrate and background with a medium plant volume, and for fish do a single powder blue gourami and 6 to 8 cherry barbs, and then maybe a nice color of rabbit or ramshorn snails for a cleanup crew, all those fish can be found at almost any chain store, but of course check your Lfs first!

  5. Hi everyone! I have a spare 29 gallon tank that I would love to put a Pig nose puffer in, I have quite a few different freshwater puffer species, so I know I would be perfectly capable of keep one, my question is that I know a 40 breeder would be the perfect tank size for them, but would a 29 tall be adequate... I have seen many mixed suggestions online and just can make up my mind so I would love to get some other opinions   

  6. He has been slowly getting more and more brown spots for almost 2 weeks, and has white spots that I Thought were ich, but I slowly turned the temp up to 86°F and for the fist week I was doing a 30% water change and dosing ich-x once every 12 hours, now it's every 24, and it has been getting a little better and then the next day it's a little worse, and it just keeps going up and down for the last 2 weeks, I have absolutely no idea what it is, again I don't think it's ich because it should of cleared up in like 5 days. Does anyone know what it can be, and how to treat it, I have loads of different meds.

     

    My parameters are:

    Ammonia- 0ppm

    Nitrite-0ppm

    Nitrate->5ppm

    GH- 100ppm

    KH-40ppm

    PH- 7

    Temp at 86°F, I normally keep it at 79°F

     

    Edit: the only thing I can think of is that it's a REALLY bad case of ich and the "brown spots" are just bruises from him bubbing on some lava rock I have in there

  7. I've had my amazon puffer for 3 weeks and he's been doing great, he shares a tank with 2 dwarf puffers, I've raised them with many different fish in the last 7 months so I thought it would be okay to keep them in their... I'm not sure if if the white circles on him are some sort of fungal/bacterial infection, or just puffer bites? Does anyone know or might be able to help. I've been doing E.M. Erythromycin and ich X for 4 days now with no improvements, I'm going to tank out the pea puffer and see if he improves this week

    EDIT: my water parameters are ,

    Ammonia- 0ppm

    Nitrite-0ppm

    Nitrate-5ppm

    Ph-6.9

    Kh-20ppm

    Gh-100ppm 

    Temp-79°F
