Great information based on professional experience!
Great info thanks for sharing
yesterday my black moor was nipped a couple of times on all of his fins, not severely but you could see the damage. i rehomed the fish nipping him but the bits on his fins that are nipped are starting to go white. i am panicking because i love this fish to pieces, i also cannot put him in a quarantine tank as i only have one tank, would treating him in the tank with other fish cause them harm?
Probably not, just make sure to monitor water parameters and follow all steps outlined in the articles referenced in this video. The use of quality products and a medicated water conditioner (in particular AAP Res-Q) is important to recovery and less harm to tank mates.

King British Fin Rot and Fungus Control has worked really well for me on a pond goldfish, which had a really bad fungus infection.
Hi! I've got goldfish, and their fins have become partially discolored, but that's been going on for a quite a while already, they haven't lost any portion of their fins, so I don't know if it's fin rot or something else (my black moor is losing its blackness too), I don't have a lamp either, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it, they barely have any sun lighting hitting them. Thanks in advance.
I would start here since fin rot can be caused by multiple things. www.aquarium-pond-answers.com/2016/09/how-to-treat-sick-fish.html
Thank you very much young man. Wish me luck.
Best of luck!
So my nitrites are high and everything else is good and I can’t get it to go down and I have drained a lot of water in a few days and it has not gone down what should I do
This video should help. ua-cam.com/video/tv3exYJuUHQ/v-deo.html
Are you referring to nitrates or nitrites? I suggest this article:

Test the water coming out of your house. It may be coming from there and you will always need to treat your new water with prime
Hello I have 4 juwels 1 t bar and 1 bn pleco. Today 2 of my juwels layed eggs but I suspect that my t bar has a fin rot issue. He is full of energy eating and even chasing some of the other fish. I don't want to harm the eggs but don't want to leave it untreated as well. So what plan of action would you recommend?? Merry Christmas btw 🎄🎄
I would take a look at this article for a little more direction. www.aquarium-pond-answers.com/2016/09/how-to-treat-sick-fish.html
have an angel that I think may have fin and tail rot. Started as a horizontal split in the tail. Then turned a white/gray color. Am I correct? What can I do? Thank you!!
This may be fin rot, although the pathogen might take more closer inspection. The article linked to in the details section of this video have very good professional based information as to how best to proceed.
Here is the link again:

I have an angel too with the same problem.
Hopefully you can answer this asap. I bought figure 8 puffer fish and he has a bad fin rot. Been using pimafix & melafix for 5 days now and indont see any improvement, its actually getting worse. Now he wont even eat, been 3 days. Please help, I'm afraid he wont make it.
This mix is a poor treatment at best for full blown fin infection (these are best used after an injury or rough handling; like how you would use Bactine on yourself).
Better is AAP Yellow Powder or AAP Nitrofuracin Green.

HELP - I got 4 male guppies to start my new 12 gallon tank. They were ordered online and have had them for 2 weeks now, all seemed fine. The largest one has a slight black/grey colour on the end of his tail since we got him but I thought it was going away. Just now I noticed a small hole in the middle of his tail. The other fish all look ok but I don't have a quarantine tank or any medication. Obviously I can't go to a pet shop, what do I do?
I would first follow advice in this article, as knowing parameters, filtration, feeding, etc is essential for treating:

I would then take it to a professional forum:

My fish has fin rot it’s a 90 gallon tank I need to treat the tank to get rid of parasites I’m running a uv sterilizer on the tank as well I notice fish shimmering and fish swimming forward and back I thought he was nuts I need to treat my tank it’s a planted aquarium
Make sure your UV is set at a level 2 flow rate and turnover and even capable of this (most are not, in particular those sold by discounters via Amazon and eBay which are really only UV Clarifiers). See this article:
www.americanaquariumproducts.com/AquariumUVSterilization.html
As for direct parasite treatment, an internal application is likely needed using AAP DiscoMed.

@@carlstrohmeyer I have the hangstrom 15 watt uv it hangs on the back of the tank i bought it from a company not Amazon
I’m treating for ick and noticed my neons and runny nose have some fin damage. I’m not sure if it’s fin rot or nipping. I have platy , rams, Cory, and guppies in the tank.
This is why the AAP articles about correct Ich treatment includes the use of Triple Sulfa or Furacyn as well as optimizing ALL water parameters (including GH & Redox).
I suggest reading this article in full:
www.americanaquariumproducts.com/Aquarium_Ich.html
@@carlstrohmeyer thanks that was very informative.
could it have been the black mollies nipping at his fins ?
Can one fish in my tank have and not the others
Yes.
Please read this in depth article from the details section of this video:
www.aquarium-pond-answers.com/2011/06/betta-fin-rot.html
i always used sink water an i would condition it but i had put in 2 black mollies with my betta an one morning found my betta very stressed an his fin was messed up
Make sure to check ALL water parameters Including tap water parameters too and read the accompanying article for this video. Also read this article:
www.aquarium-pond-answers.com/2016/09/how-to-treat-sick-fish.html
Not all water conditioners are created equal either. Unless you have high ammonia, with stressed fish, you SHOULD BE using AAP Res-Q
Further Reading:
www.aquarium-pond-answers.com/2007/04/aquarium-water-conditioners.html
It is indeed possible that the Mollies could be nipping too
What size tank are they in? They are annoying your betta
Hi! When doing 100% water changes for my fish is fin rot which I’m in the process of right now on my third day, am I supposed to completely throw out the substrate that I have in the tank? Or do I just rinse it out and clean it really well like I do all the other things to prevent the bacteria getting back into the tank on my fish? Thanks for your help in advance!
Why are you changing 100% of the water? You should definitely not be doing this as this only further stresses the fish and does not get rid of the opportunistic bacteria such as Aeromonas that cause fin rot.
I strongly urge you to read the article IN FULL in the details of this video as well as the first couple of articles it references in the first section.
@@carlstrohmeyer Sorry that’s a mess up in my text I am doing 50% water changes but I did 100% water change to begin with the first day.
100% water changes will get rid of all the good bacteria your fish need, making your tank become uncycled, so definitely don’t do this.
Using api fin and body a good product... also dosed whole tank twice and did water change .. so do I dose same night as I do water change or wait next day...
Water changes are right before the dose. So, water change and treat right away.
Here is an article excerpt as to how to correctly perform water changes with medication use:
www.americanaquariumproducts.com/Aquarium_Medication.html#change_water
I added three tiny (~0.5in) ember tetras to join the five in my ten gallon with my betta. Within two days, I noticed what appeared to be ick on the added fish. So, I cranked up the temperature to ~83°F from its typical 78°F. After one day of treatment, I noticed that my betta's tail had some small chunks missing. Today (two days later), it is pretty bad and I think it has some fin rot. The water parameters, aside from the temperature, are similar to how they've been the past six months that I've had the betta. Could the ember tetras be fin nipping him? I haven't noticed any fin nipping behavior from the neither the established ones nor the new ones. Thoughts?
Could be, but you could also be dealing with a secondary infection, which by increasing temperature increases the risks there of.
I strongly urge you to read the AAP article about Fish Ich in full for the optimum way to treat Ich and prevention secondary infection.
In the mean time I suggest isolating the Tetra with a breeder net to prevent others from harming this Tetra
Here is the suggested article to read:

@@carlstrohmeyer okay. Thanks for the help!
Can i combine Methylene blue and malachite green
Yes. Thats what we do in the medicated shell. www.americanaquariumproducts.com/MedicatedWonderShell.html
Hey! I’m hoping I can get an answer. I have a standard goldfish (although it’s all white). One day I noticed that it’s pectoral fins looked really small compared to my other goldfish’s pectoral fins. Then I noticed that my white fish didn’t have anal, ventral, or dorsal fins. I knew this couldn’t have always been because I would have noticed when I bought it. I also noticed that it had what looked to be remnants of a dorsal fin. Well now I look and there’s not even remnants anymore. I just noticed yesterday that it’s tail seems to be a little jagged looking. What is causing this? How did these go away and what should I do? I appreciate any help you can give me!
This is likely something better answered in a professionally run aquarium forum where you can post a picture.

Test your water first. You most likely have an imbalance in your water quality. Put this fish in quarantine and treat for tail and fin rot. Furval 1 and kanaplex as directed
@@sherryP-rv3vg Best is AAP Spectrogram, but if not available you need to treat with pharm grade nitrofurazone (not Furan 2) at the same time as Kanaplex, failure to do so can yield more poor results. There is much more to this than your answer, which is why the person was referred to a professional group.
Also there are many reasons to use a water conditioner, and while Prime is among the best, it is not always the best choice. For instance with Heavy metals in tap water, AAP ProAquais the better choice. Which sick or new fish in an established tank, AAP Res-Q is the better choice!

Please, please, PLEASE help me!! Yesterday my betta was just sitting on the bottom of his tank and every time he does it I monitor him very closely because he doesn't do it often and it scares me that somethings wrong anyways I noticed that his tail had rather clear ends and he wasn't zooming around the tank like he normally does and if he isn't better by tomorrow then imma start freaking out, if he does have fin rot then I need the best home remedie or something, anything really I'm 12 years old and I don't have much money left because I bought everything for my betta and I can't tell my parents he has fin rot or I'm doomed and I ordered blue dream shrimp right before I noticed his tail, so I need this gone fast. I cant have help from my filter either the sponge that prevents gross things from going back into the tank tore yesterday and instead of cleaning the tank its leaving more particles in it then before I am going to trim all of his plants and do a huge water change today but if anyone has anything else please help, this fish is my everything.
Sorry about your poor Betta.

Often just getting water parameters in check is makes all the difference
@@carlstrohmeyer thank you, I will look into it
I don't know if your fish is in a tank or a bowl. What if your fish is in a fish bowl it might be helpful to change water by keeping 50-75% of the water on the top, swish.. rinsing and dumping the water on the bottom. A lot of people don't think about changing fish water from the bottom and they just change it from the top. The top of the water holds a lot of beneficial bacteria. What ended up being wrong with your fish?
@@whitelesbianrapper Bro I dont even know, he's fine now. He's a very strange fish.
How can you buy a young betta?
I would look into a private breeder local or online.
Okay so I got some live plants and a pleco for my 10 gallon betta tank and now my betta won’t eat or swim so I took the plants out and she’s still not eating or swimming?? Helpp
And when she does swim it’s in fast little spurts like something is scaring her or something
And she keeps like shoving her face down into the rocks and wedging herself between that and the glass
@@larissathornock7233 I would start with the basics which includes ALL water parameters including GH.
I would start by reading this: www.americanaquariumproducts.com/Aquarium_Disease.html
As well rad the link the video author provided in the details:

Is the tank properly cycled? Maybe you should separate her from the place so you can treat her alone if cycling is not the problem and you need to use other methods to treat her.
Carl Strohmeyer Thank you so muchh unfortunately it was too late for me to treat her and she passed away before we even got the treatment but i’m gonna use extra precautions whenever I get more fish
Love the video! For some reason I was staring at how you explain, one eye was just blinking. 😆

Ty lol
I heard changing 50% of water every day
Not the best idea. 50% water changes can be hard on a fish... its very hard to match the chemistry up and can sometimes cause issues.
This guy is talking me out of having tropical fish. Think I will just catch some local sunnies and forget about tropical fish altogether. Cost way too much to maintain.
My opinion is they all take a certain level of care. I don't find myself spending that much to maintain tropical.
@@AmericanAquariumInformation Guess I am just having bad luck with big store fish that die so easy. No luck with Angels, Oscars are hardy but very dirty. I traded my Oscars for platies from a mom and pop fish store. My Platies do great so far. Gouramis not doing well. My PH in my water is low and I bought some PH leveling gravel to bring it up .CaribSea Coraline Aquarium Gravel. Not delivered yet. I also have problems with Ammonia and I do water changes every 4 days. I am tired of doing water changes so frequent, so I also bought some ammonia Remover, White Diamond Zeolite removes toxic ammonia for a healthier aquatic environment. Not delivered yet. I am in a learning process with this hobby. So far disappointed. When I was a kid now 65 I never had these problems and my fish lived long and healthy. Platies ,Swords ,Angels ,Corys and Guppies. We had well water which now I have city water. I do use conditioner. But as a kid we just used well water on underground filters and the fish did great. Now fish just drop dead overnight. They are to sensitive and weak now. Biggest problem in the old days was ICK. Who are the best fish breeders that care about the fish they breed and not just the Buck they get. I know and heard fish genetics are all messed up from over breeding the same lines of fish all the time.
@@donaldstevens5034 For starters, Coraline Gravel will do little for bring up pH (just based on simple chemistry)

@@carlstrohmeyer Well I guess I will just give up then. This hobby is getting to complicated and costly.
The first few months are the worst part, that's when you get most issues. Once the tank is established you shouldn't get problems. Just treat/quarantine any new fish before putting them in the main tank.
In 1.5 years I've only had 3 fish die and only because 2 of them were already ill when I got them.
Dude you didn’t once mention the steps one takes to treat and how to treat misleading title
What's up my dude. The whole video is a how to treat. First finding the cause then treating the symptoms. How you treat depends on your treatment of choice. If you want detailed how tos with our recommended steps those are in the linked articles. There more videos on the channel too.
Not sure you were watching the same video or reading the in depth articles as I or others here have done.
Treatment is far more than just dumping in meds, as both the video and the articles in the details note. Many treatments fail or are only partly effective when one does not take care of causes. Sort of like looking for treatment for burns on your hand while keeping your hands in the fire.
I suggest reading this article from the details:

Yes, he is reading from and simplifying an article that is from one of the most aquarium industry respected and researched aquarium information articles available.
It is noteworthy that reading is your friend instead of making hateful comments about a subject it appears you have little knowledge of.
