    Discus Fry Dying

    My discus fry are about 2 months old and one by one every few days a fry dies. Water changes are every other day 45%. Parameters always test within nominal range, ph at 6.8 or a little lower, and temps are kept at 84. Does anyone have ideas why mine are very slowing dropping off?

    Breeding Mates Dying

    I have lost my breeding female dovi and Honduran Jag over the last month and a half. I have own both breeding pairs for almost 5 years now. I am curious as to what others do with the single mate that's left after one dies?

    No idea why they're dying

    Like a month ago, I replaced clay pellet substrate with pool filter sand in three of my established tanks. I pre-washed it. I think it was Ace brand. The quartz stuff. Each tank has about the same size layer of sand. Live plants. No CO2. PMDD ferts. Heated to around 78. Two have lighting, one...

    Is my Oscar dying

    When I came home today he was just laying on the gravel. All other fish are fine. I fed him some feeders on Saturday and fasted Sunday. Today he wouldn't eat all other fish ate. Also most of the fish ate the feeders too. I did add an extra light on Saturday I don't know if he's just stressed or...

    Java moss dying

    I added some JM to my tank and it's slowly dying. Some of it is still green, but the brown is over taking it. I have another plant in there that went through a similar thing, where it did not thrive, but now it does. Why would JM not thrive in a Malawi cichlid tank?
