I just bought a Betta two days ago. I noticed he was really shy and didn’t eat. I looked at him today and he’s covered in white cottony blotches. I have him in a big bowl of water temporarily. He is separated from all the other fish.

First, what should I do now?
Will my other fish get the same infection? (Danios and Gourami)

Thank You.

I bought some stuff called Lifeguard All-in-one treatment…it is actually for fish but the pet store employee said it should work for my frog too. Was it a bad purchase? Should I get something different for my other frog (who appears to have a fungus too)?

My fish has a fin that looks like it’s rotting, what do i do?
It has a fin that i think is rotting, i’ve tried anti-bacterial stuff but…

I’ve had this fish for about a week now and just changed his water, and upgraded his tank. I don’t live anywhere near a pet store.

i recently asked if my fan-tail goldfish’s tail would grow back after it was bitten off by my turtle, i isolated the fish, removed the turtle, kept the fish in cleaner water, but i think my fish is getting fin rot or a fungal infection. how do i tell?
some of her scales have turned black

and other natural anti-fungals for 30 days. Will i be cleansed of candida overgrowth and feel better..

The diet would consist of one serving of complex carbs per day, plus fish, many vegetables and good oils.

Only about two of them have scales that are slightly puffy, and one has a red streak running accross the top by it’s eye. If I treat my tank for fungus (Fungus Clear Tablets) will it hurt the fish that are okay? And it’s also a new tank (1 week) will it upset the cycling process? These are fish I moved from a smaller tank to a big tank and didn’t notice this until I moved them.

When I fed my fish this morning, I noticed that one of my brilliant rasboras was quite pale, and his body looked almost like it was covered in a thin layer of slime. A few short stringy strands of slime are hanging off his body. (They’re not very long.) Only one fish is affected, and he was behaving normally – eating, swimming, etc.

I had to be to work before the pet store opened, but I will stop by on my home. I will, of course, ask what they think I ought to treat with. I have Melafix, but I didn’t put any in the tank. If the infection is fungal, I figured it wouldn’t do a whole lot of good, and I’d rather treat the fish properly than guess at it and do more harm.

Anybody have any idea what this infection is, where it came from, and how to treat it?
