It is quite possible he merely ate a bit more than he should, or a bigger piece than normal and it had trouble getting through the digestive system.
-
You are also going to have further problems if you are right with your 113L guess of its size in your other thread. Do you any pics of the fish? Not sure about angel fish being pink! Also, the tank won't be big enough for the plec.

Hi Ozzchick. Don't worry, the fish will actually like the brown colour
-
Get your facts right first please slevin12. Back to our Aussie members, are they OK? There has been a lot of flooding in places.

We had a great day on Sunday cruising the Marlborough Sounds on La Bella Vista. For those who want a look... http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v144/ ... ?start=all

More for older people? What gave you that idea? last time I met the club they had a wide range of ages from about 8yrs up.

I wonder what's casting that shadow on the waAHHH!!!

They are planning to take over the world. That was their first meeting -
We haven't heard from you for ages either Caper
-
How old was it when you bought it though? Lack of colour and odd shape can be disease or old age. I have had neons last 8 years though so old age isn't likely in this case.
-
If they are still alive and looking healthy since your first post I wouldn't worry anout it. They are obviously getting enough food.

You do know there is an aquarium club in Dunedin too Nat? Ask at The Pet Warehouse
-
May also be carp pox. Incurable and unsightly but doesn't harm the fish.
-
They will be fine. No need for feeding blocks (which can foul the tank) or auto feeders (which may jam). The pond weed and duck weed will be good.
-
Hard to tell on the chubby fish but comets are easy. Look down on them from above. Males are dead straight from nose to tail. Females tend to bulge slightly to one side so the tail looks like ot is a little offset. In breeding season the males will often get white spots just behind the gill plates.
-
They are all just variations of the same fish Carassius auratus so will interbreed no problem at all.
-
Don't use that pH Up or Down stuff! Better to do it naturally although I doubt your pH will be a problem at 7.2. Remember, just cos the books say a fish needs 6.8, doen't mean it won't be just as happy breeding at 7.2 in captivity as it may never have experienced 6.8 in it's life

It really sounds like swim bladder.

Have some who haven't posted for a while. Have they been flooded out? eg Fishman and Freakyfish. I see we still have Frenchy with us 8)
-
Some nice shots there
-
There is a good reason that plant is banned. Have you seen how it takes over waterways???
-
Did you have a sudden temp drop? That sometimes triggers it off (a cold night after several hot ones).
-
I think it is a heavy grade polythene liner?
-
Was their brand of food changed? As also suggested, may be a bacterial problem.
-
You can get stuff used to paint the inside of concrete water tanks.
