Fantail goldfish always at bottom corner
and It looks to me like the fins are repairing themselves. I would keep up on the water changes. If it starts to get bumpy looking. Then I would think of adding some Medication to the tank. -

Fantail goldfish always at bottom corner
I have a fancy (fantail) goldfish which I kept in a 200G along with two iridescent shark, a turtle and a carp mix breed. Recently the carp started showing aggression towards the goldfish and tore its tail pretty badly. So I moved to fantail to the 25G to save it from bullying. there are white spots now in the tail. Is this fin rot or new growth ? Ever since the shift the fantail goldfish is mostly present in the bottom corner, below the filter (pics included). It used to swim around in the larger 200g even though it was being bullied by the larger fish. Even when I put it in the 200G for the first time it was pretty active. Though it does swim around sometimes but as soon as someone approaches the tank it darts back to the corner. And when I put in food it eats it normally (video) differences between the two tanks: size : new tank 20g old tank 200g tank mates: new- alone, old- two iridescent shark, a turtle and a carp mix breed (carp was bullying the goldfish pretty bad) old tank was not planted new tank is high tech planted (java fern, java moss, anubias, ludwigia repens) temperature: old 28c new 26c Cycling: old tank was cycled new is cycling could not wait for cycle to complete because of bullying. two 50% water changes every week. (Added cycled media from old tank and using stability) Ammonia: old 0ppm new 0.25 just before water change nitrate: old 10-30 ppm new 20-40 ppm water source is same for both which has nitrate of about 5-10 ppm but is the only available option. Are the white spots fin rot and not new growth? Should I start using stronger medication (kanaplex + furan2). I am already using paraguard. Is this Behavior just new tank shyness or something more severe? What can I do to help? Will a bigger tank/tankmate help? video link: -

Very strange behavior with my betta
Hello guys! Long time no see. I am sorry I've been so mia and then here and then mia life has been super busy. I am SO stumped right now as to what is going on with my betta. He is in a 2.5 gallon tank. I am going to be honest, the nitrates are *possibly* a tad over a good limit. He has one nerite snail with him, and it has an anubias plant. I have had him about 2.5 years now and he slowly started getting weak. I did a 90% water change and he just kept getting worse and had this weird fluff almost under his chin and he has been bottom sitting, not eating, and super lethargic. For the last 6 days I have been treating with metronidazole. Now today I look in the tank and there are SO MANY tiny little creepy things swimming around and on the surface of the water; like at least 70-100 of these things. I want to start using prazi because it almost looks parasitic to me at this point, but I can't put my nerite in the main tank since he is exposed to whatever this is now, but the prazi will kill (the snail) him. I am not sure if maybe they grew from the food that sat in there a tad long (my bad ) but I think they are too small to get on video. I do not have a heater in my tank. My room temp varies from 70-75 I would say. I cannot test anything tonight, but I can be (almost) certain the pH is 7.6, ammonia 0ppm, nitrite 0ppm, and nitrate I am going to guess around 20-40ppm -

New Here, just getting back into fish keeping
As a side note...turns out rosy minnows will definitely pick at the fins of other fish, watched them do it. Needless to say, they have been removed. And since QT is just starting I went back to the store and picked up the black demekin that I almost got instead of the oranda, I'll just have to upgrade to something larger than a 40 breeder once they start to come to size... I know that due to their eye sight its not often recommended to keep telescope eye'd fish with more normal fish, but I heavily plant my tanks with anacharis, duck weed, and offer salt-free nori and other veggies regularly to offset any competition. Eventually they will be used to hand feeding - right now they are not sure about hands in the water.
