Disease

red parrots

Mon, 08/30/2010 - 03:14 — red parrot

Please help!  Yesterday one of my red parrot fish died. I had five parrots in a 30 gallon tank. I usually clean the tank once every week
 because it is overstocked and I add ammonia filter as well as carbon.

Question about ick

Sun, 08/29/2010 - 12:28 — angelaphough1

My poor George is relly having a hard time.  The ick cysts have gotten larger and beginning to fall off, but it is wearing him out.  This morning I got up and he is floating upside down on the bottom of the tank.  He is still breathing which I am glad.  I noticed that he has brown spots around his nostrils and his upper lip is brown also.  Why is this happening?

Just verifying I am treating correctly.

I have 2 great bp, a female named Ms. Jayne that is 10 yrs old and George who is 1 yr old.  Friday Ms.

Happy - the fish who will not eat.

<sorry to start a new thread - couldn't figure out how to post a photo to a "reply">

Okay.

So on my list of things to try.

1. Get a bigger tank ASAP.

2. Try some frozen peas as a laxative.

Any idea how long we can expect her to hang in without eating.  I would guess she hasn't eaten for at least 5 days.

sick cichlid's

Mon, 08/02/2010 - 20:15 — krissymarie

Sigh... one of my Cichlid's has big black patches all over it and on it's fins etc.  I had a sick tank before and treated it, changed the water out and now 'something' is back.  I've done the parasite clear treatment, the melafix etc.  Somehow I cant get healthy fish back.  If this continues they will die.  Any suggestions?

Possible Disease with Parrot Fish

Wed, 07/28/2010 - 20:56 — Elise

Hi,
I wondering if my fish has developed a disease or a possible injury from either another fish or running into something in our tank.


The largest of my three (parrot cichlid) fish has a lump on his cheek and what looks like a possible scab on the lump.
Is this some type of disease, any ideas??  He has been in my freshwater tank for about 2yrs and has two smaller fish (same type) that he has lived with for over a year.  No other fish are showing any signs of the same problem.  He swims and eats just as usual.

please help soon

HELP...BP swimming upside down

Fri, 06/25/2010 - 00:55 — pcmom

My 10 yr old BP is swimming upside down. Over the last year he has gotten lighter in color and I have had small snails in my tank for the last 5 years. They were unwelcome guests, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. The other fish seem fine. I haven't changed anything in the tank. Any ideas?

think my parrots have a disease....help
