freshwater eels?
I was just given a fish tank today with some goldfish and some eels. The eels are about 7 inches long and are about 3/4 inch tall. They are brown and their tail fins are broad. I know for a fact that they aren’t tire tracks or spiny eels. They also have whiskers (six that go around their mouth) and they sometimes suck on the side of the tank. They are moderately aggressive when fed brine shrimp, but for the most part are mild mannered and stick together.
Any ideas of what they may be?
Thanks!!
can you do brine shrimp for freshwater?
i was thinking about switching my flakes to a live food. I could do live worms but that is like 3 buvks a portion wich is nothing lol. So i was thinking about a hatchery of brine shrimp but i hear it is only for saltwater is that true? any ideas?
Advice needed for sick drawf (freshwater) puffers.?
African (Malawi) cichlid tank. 75 gallons, established. PH 7.5-8.0. Chichlid salt used. No plants, only rockscape. Bought 6 puffers ~8 weeks ago. Feed mosquito larvae, brine shrimp, krill. I feed them once a day. Occasionally skip a day. Also pellet, flake, cichlid food. The puffers don’t seem to eat these. No signs of illness. No problems with other fish in the tank. Found three of the puffers dead, two days ago. One is now sick. THe other two lay on the bottom but seem to have revived and are swimming around None of them have looked sick- no ich, fungus, etc. Help. I really like these guys and am not sure what to do. Is the Ph too high for them? Not enough or too muh salt? No cover? Wrong food? looked them up on the net but cannot find the answers to these questions. I have a community tank and a guppy tank I could move them to if the ph is an issue (they are 7.0)- but if so, how do you do it without shocking them by the ph change? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Brine Shrimp for my female Betta?
This might be a stupid question, but I just brought freeze-dried brine shrimp for my little Betta. On the label it says “for freshwater & marine fish”. I know that Bettas are tropical fish…So I’m wondering if there’s a difference between “marine” and “tropical”? Perhaps I’m over-thinking this one
