Dang it!

Something is killing my fish. I setup a new tank and bought some dirty *** rosy red minnows. Aw man, I know I messed up. The fish look emaciated, but just in the head. The eyes look sunken in, the fish becomes withdrawn, unsteady, and then dies. And it almost looks like a body fungus has grown on my betta, but the others looked fine. There is the same white fury fungus on the driftwood in my tank. It is killing quickly. My water is perfect.

On further inspection yes, there is a white cottony substance on the fish....



I understand your fustration but the title of your thread was not politcally correct.

No, these are my cycling fish. I haven't put anything in there I couldn't afford to loose.

I put pimafix in there and removed the diseased betta, but this stupid can filter. I removed the carbon and now I am getting air out of the discharge. I was trying to move the hoses around cause they are heavy and will crimp almost completely closed, one hose poped off and water went everywhere. It's one of those days man.

And don't buy fish from Petsmart. There stupid feeders are so overpopulated and that is where the fungus came from. I had my receipt for 50 cents and they wouldn't give me credit for it cause I didn't bring the dead fish with me. Yeah, that is what I want sitting my car all afternoon and what I want to look at, dead fish. Screw Petsmart.
