TOPIC: previous problem with pics

previous problem with pics 3 years, 1 month ago #26413

Early I had asked if anyone coould identify my Oscar terrible condition. Water has been checked came back okay. With the exception a algae bloom! My fish looks like its skin has been fileted in places. Pic enclosed don't know if you can see fish clear enough through the bloom!! One response was ammonia in tank. Please help if you can. He has not been eating and stays in one place. Bless his heart! I have noticed in the last couple hours he has been swimming a bit after a dose of buff. I checked the water and it had high ALK. Previously checked by a fish store which said the water was fine. What ever I need help!He looks like he is in pain!!

the first thing you should do is a 30% water changes then go and get your own water testing kit and test for ammonia nitrites and nitrates. when purchasing one get one with a liquid reagent not the strips.(american pharmaceutical makes a good reliable kit)

now a few questions need to be answered. is your tank properly cycled? are any other tankmates showing the same symptons? when you post your actual water readings(the actual numbers not just "its good") if you can also answer these questions it will a long way in helping identify what your current problem might be.
Warning..I will offend you at some point!!!


my goal is simple a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all
