What is the ammonia level of the tank?

or this

I don't know, I give up looking.

Reminds me of that dog from the movie " Hatchi " :V

Hmm well that does sound like what's wrong with them.
Maybe I am over feeding them.
Ill try smaller amount of food and see if that has any affect.
Cause this morning with I woke up one was floating at the top dead.
Sigh. This has never happened before and I don't know why it's happening now.
Maybe I'm just better off waiting till they all die and getting oscars.
But as for the ammonia level I'm not to sure
It doesn't have an odor that's for sure if it makes it have one.
I could use a PH test strip and see what the level of that is.
But meh I have 5 left and if they die Andy guppies survive then I guess I'll just breed guppies cause they are the only ones that haven't died yet compared to the ones I got from Walmart.
Walmarts fish: all dead.
Pet shop fish: all alive.

Water circulation problem. Is your fan or bubbler broke? Fish piss breaks down to urea, and salt. Salt builds up and their swim bladders fail. Walnart fishes are bearly healthy in the first place.

Well no not really.
There is barely any alge growing on them and the sucker fish does his job if it gets alittle out of hand.
But there are some stains and they don't bubble as much as they use to.
And the filters are alittle old.
Do you honesty think that could be the problem?
But don't you think the guppies would be more affected by it seeing as how they are the smallest.
But my Cory's and sucker fish seem unaffected dispite they have been in there for over a year now.

Just noticed you didnt have any Black Mollies, whats up with that?

First thing I would do is check the water quality with a PH strip. If there is a lot of poo poo in the tank then yeah ammonia might be a bit high since your filter is old resulting in the carbon being less effective.

Meh i thought about getting them, but idk if they are aggressive around other fish.
haha. Never really thought about getting any with the condition my fish are in.



Hmm would you recommend for me to replace both filters and get brand new ones?
Cause the filters kinda do have me wondering now.

Both filters? I'm guessing you have a gravel filter then as well (I don't have one). Well I'd say change at least one filter so that there is new carbon, black rock stuff in the filter bag, in your filter to help improve the water quality.

P.S. If your treating your tank with any medicine currently then give the medicine a little time before changing the filter.

yeah there is two filters and yes its the carbon rock ones.
And the only thing i have treated the water with was the Ick tablets but thats been about 3 days ago.

Yeah, feel free to change the filters when you can and check for improvements.

Just woke up and another one is died.
-.-
Yeah I'm replacing those filters tommrrow when I get my paycheck

Well that sucks to hear...

Hm, I just remembered that I uploaded a picture for this thread like ages ago but I forgot to post this here D:

So. I have a pug who has many names. My favorite one of them is Bob. And most of his names are just different variations of the original or variations of the variations of the original D: And yes, he does recognise most of them.
He's awesome and his favorite thing to do is sit/lie in a corner with random objects in his mouth till he falls asleep. Like in these pictures:

Is that a pipe in his mouth in the first picture? If it is, thats a badass looking pipe, I'm jealous of your dog.

Also <3 dogs.

Yeah, thats a pipe :D A pipe that is no longer, because I didnt look after him when he had that pipe and he decided to chew it, because it was delicious (it was used, but not with tobacco).
I have even bought him a baby pacifier and sometimes he holds it like a baby. And I have even given him some wrapped (dark!!!!) chocolate and he just sat in a corner holding it D: [size=10]but I didnt let him keep the chocolate for more than few minutes[/h]

hah, thats awesome. My dog has a craving for socks(not sure if all dogs are like that or not) but he usually just sits on the floor as close as he can get to whoever is in the room with him and nibbles on socks. Or just sleeps, hes old and only has 3 legs so he cant get around very well. >.

Oh god I get so many notifications nowdays I forget to reply to half of them D: At least my dog isnt into socks. If I play with him with socks, he does play with them, but in general he doesnt touch stuff he isnt supposed to.

A few of my cats were being nice today and actually let me touch them so I got this quick photo.



However while uploading the pictures of my cats my dog comes along and gets in my face.
