  2. Hi & welcome! Yep, this is great site. You WILL get lots of help and probably make lots of friends too What size tank do you have? fishies? Take care & have fun, Caper
  3. I googled them & what I saw didn't look like the first pic either but like the one you posted Afrikan. Caper
  4. A very sharp knive. It was terrible I do not want to do that again. I had even asked a my vet's to see if there was a way. But I didn't get to talk to one of the vets and the workers said they knew of no way. Caper
  5. Hold a remote in front of them whoever goes for it first is the male :-? 8) All joking aside, very nice pics...love the fish Caper
  6. Yah, I second that try the peas and let us know how he/she makes out. I was advised one time if I thought it was constipation to not feed for three days then peas only for three days. Caper

    Glad to hear fishy is on the mend :bounce: :bounce: Caper
  13. Well wouldn't that be more humane then? Just having them go to sleep. Although I understand what you all are saying as far as the "blow to the head". Caper
  14. I always have my tank lights on in the living room from dark till 11 or 12 at night (unless I fall asleep & its later :roll: ). I don't have any live plants in any tanks. It was my understanding that it doesn't make a difference with the fish (at least mine haven't said anything ) as long as they have a period of night time for sleep. Caper
  15. What does the oil of cloves supposedly do, put them to sleep (to death)? Caper
  16. Yep, I'm at a loss. Let us know how the water tests. Caper
  17. Sorry about your algae eater ...he didn't have dropsy by any chance? Caper
  18. You're right hard to say...because of his coloring. As far as I know, high ammonia will turn gills red that's why I was asking. Other than water changes, I have no idea what else you could do. You haven't added anything new to the tank have you? How's the ammonia today? Caper
  19. Little hard to tell but is his gills red? Also, what is the temp in the tank? Caper
  20. Go to the post on here re: pictures. Photobucket is a good place & easy to use. If you post the pic here, more will be able to see him. Personally, I would stop using the salt. I tried it one time and ended up with more problems. It apparently has its uses, but I would not be adding it at this time. What are your readings? Ammonia & such? Caper
