Anyone made one before? Was it successful? How is the fish now? Any tips? Our little guy, (Black Moor named Chadwick) developed an unknown illness in December, laying on his side at the bottom of the tank. We did a series of antibiotics and he’s improved to the point we actually think he’s...

Hi, I am a new Betta fish owner and my vailtale male has not been doing well since I came back from winter break. I thought it was because his heater broke (I got a replacement within a day of noticing) but even with him in a healthy heat environment he has not gotten better. He has been very...

Just found my 4" Florida Gar floating on top of the tank. Looks like a swim bladder problem since it can't swim down at all. Just did a 30% water change. Tank is at 80F. What do I do? He looks so lifeless. I don't want to lose the lil guy.

My 18 month old, 8" GT, seems to have swim bladder disease. He stays in this tail down position and can barely move. I have tried prazipro, multiple water changes and he will not eat peas. It has been 4 days now. I am worried he is starving to death. Should I put him out of his misery? Any...

Hello everyone, I'm not a very active user on this Forum but I came here hoping someone with more large Cichlid experience maybe had some advice. Let me start off by saying, my Dovii is still alive and breathing. But I'm not sure if he's concussed or ruptured his swim bladder. He is responsive...
