Eight days ago I was left to care for four piranhas. Two died which upset me a great deal. Now the remaining two have not eaten for 6 days. I have tried feeding them bloodworms from the pet shop which is frozen and fresh prawns from the fish counter in tesco. but, no joy. they are in a 63 litre tank, I think they should be ok in there but, they just won't eat at all and I am seriously worried that they will die. please someone help.

I can't keep my ammonia down! I've tried everything, from water changes, to filter changes, I used the Cycle stuff to promote the biological filter, I've used Ammo-Lock to try to detoxify it, but every time I test the water it's dangerously high!! What else can I do?

Just bought fish (Mollies) from Walmart a week ago. It is now 8 days later and they all died but one. I put water conditioner in the tank, I have a filter, and gold fish flakes. Am I missing something here? The water here is very hard. Should I be putting something else in the talk to make the water habitat easier for the fish to handle or does Wal-mart just sell bad fish? Why do my critters keep dying? Am I doing something wrong? They keep going to a corner of the tank and sitting there, then they die. Why?

I have two young daughters and we're considering getting them an aquarium. What fish would you pet people recommend? We want something colorful, easy to care for, that can live in about a 25 gallon tank and aren't too expensive to replace if something happens.

I have 2 kissing gouramis. They are acting pretty strange.
Firstly they don't seem to be eating much, I tried freeze dried blood worms and tetra bits. They take in small bits of food but throw it out.
Secondly, the bigger of the two is noticed to have been nibbling on the smaller one and that drives the smaller one crazy. I don't know if its nibbling but the smaller one gets pretty disturbed.
Also, the smaller one only swims around real fast when the bigger irritates it, otherwise its only floating at the surface and moving slightly to take in a gulp of air.
Whats wrong with my fish? Its only been 3 days. I'm changing the water tomorrow, do you think that will help?

My wife and I have a 10 gal aquarium and have platys. We have had 3 females and 1 male. Two of the females have given birth and then seem to waste away about 1-2 months after doing so. The 3rd female has given birth and is fine as is our male, the surviving fry are full grown and are fine and our other tank inhabitants (corys, tetras and a snail) are fine.

Is it common for female platys to die a few months after giving birth?

I have just bought an air filter for my 10 gallon fish tank. I bought one of those ornaments that bubbles come out of, it is a dinosaur coming out of an egg (the bubbles make the dinosaur bob up and down). But the bubble seem alittle large and strong. I woke up this morning and one of my algae eaters was dead. Is anyone familiar with this type of ornament and if this is normal. Or did I kill off one of my son's pets!
