I have a Shubunkin named Stewart and a Black Moor named Colbert. I have had to seperate them because someone told me they may not get along too well. Since goldfish are social creatures, I would like to get them each a new friend. Does anyone know what kinds of fish would get along well with them?

Our little fish has a black cancer-ish rott looking thing spreading on his back. He already lost his top fin. He bearly eats. He looks like he hates life. I want to ease his pain, ya know? by just ending it. This sounds lame I know... it's a freaking fish, but I feel bad for the little guy. Any ideas? I don't think he can be helped, I bought beta fix stuff but I thinks it's too late.

I tend to feed mine every other day right now. I know overfeeding can be a problem. How often should you feed your goldfish?

okay i wad reading the boxes at the pet store for sea salt and aqarium salt because I needed to treat my guppy for a tial problem. The aquarium salt said it was for reducing stress for freshwaterfish and helping cure diesises and the sea salt was for making a saltwater aquarium.

so heres my question

since guppys prefer brackish water could you acually use the amount of aquarium salt for helping keeping freashwater fish healthy instead of having to get the really expensive sea salt and then I could also add a pleco or something casue i really want one.

i went away just overnight and i came home and my male guppys tail is all shreded. Its not fin rot I can tell. He is in with 2 females and it seems like that attacked him but they have been together for a while what could have happened? Also the females looked a bit wierd. Instead of the blue they normally have around their stomachs it was black then their skin looked like it had ich on it. I fed htem and an hour later they looked normal again. So I just bought a breeders net and put the male in there for now and treated the tank with that aquarium salt(not sea salt) that is acually ment for curing fish diesises and reducing stress. Is there anything else I should do or did I do everything right?

Ok i have a 10 gallon Guppy fish tank.i got it from my science teacher like 6 months ago, b/c it was the end of the school year, and i had wanted them so she gave them all to me. they were fine for a while, untill about 2 months later, they started finally having tons of babies(as guppies normally do, i guess)but after that, the female mom(or what i would guess would b the mom) would die a few days after, and every female would die not long after having babies..so now i have like 10 males and 2 females and like 20 babies...also i have like 10 baby snails recently, but that doesnt really have anything to do w/ it...i know i should have about 20 females, and as soon as i can afford to get that many females,i will. but i dont know why the females keep dying?..i have had another fishtank for like 2 yrs before i had this one, so i do know how to care for fish.the males are doing ok, but the females just keep dying for some reason and i wasnt sure why.i dont treat them any diferent. well thx

I have water in the air tube which runs from the filter box. This is supposed to suck air from outside, but sometimes has water inside and obviously not sucking any air. I've cleared it a few times with alot of difficulty...blowing through etc. What's the best way to clear it, and will it be a problem for the fish if this keeps happening? I'm a newby tropical fish owner!
