I am a new aquarium hobbyist and after much debate, I’ve decided to go ahead and set up a freshwater tank (salt water tanks, although beautiful, seem like alot of work for someone new like me!). I guess I’m really looking for ideas and suggestions. I love goldfish and they seems pretty easy to maintain, but what other compatible fish can I add to my tank for variety? Also, do I need to purchase “cleaner” fish for a freshwater tank (like catfish or shrimp)?
We had a male betta for months so when we got a large aquarium I bought alot of new fish (guppies, a female betta, ghost shrimps, little frogs, & a sucker fish — 28 total). Right away, after puting the fish together, some got body fungus and half died within 1 day. I treated the tank for 5 days for body fungus, gill disease, mouth & tail rot disease, and popeye disease… it was not the cheapest stuff. Within a day of body fungus clear-up my fish got gill disease. How? I have no idea since they showed no signs before and I used a combo treatment that covered it too. My tank has been continued on treatment now almost 10 days and still more fish dying (I have flushed 11 in days)! Right now it is still gill disease (red, swollen gills, listless fish, & trouble breathing). If I stop treatment just 1 day more die, if not then no change in health. What do I do? Water sample taken to petsmart said water o.k. & treatment should of worked. I have done as directed on treatment box.
As per directions on treatment I have changed water in tank every 4 days. Tank is very large, fish small size (average is 1″ or less).
Tank and acessories was precleaned with tap water. Water used was bottled and tap (50/50 as directed by pet store) and treated with conditioner. The fish were added 48 hours after tank setup.
fish originally were put into two small tanks then problems started when put all together.
Seperate question now, just noticed babies tonite in tank… guppies. Do I tank them out with the mom (still looks fat — maybe going to have more yet) or will she eat them? Or, do I remove them by themselves? Also, what do you feed babies?… special food or just crushed up regular fish food? I have had fish for years but never had babies (all my guppies have been girls, no boys).
