Hi, I just got a fish from a friend and I don’t rlly know anything about that fish, it’s rlly small(about 4cm) and I want to know the breed of the fish and how to take care of it. Thanks you
Thanks for reaching out about you fish. It is believed to be a Comet goldfish. Water quality and nutrition is the key to success. Testing water parameter for pH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate will give you guidance for a healthy environment. Purchased food should be rotated out every 3 months as vitamin C and other nutrients degrade over time. Trying to maintain water temperature can be challenging with out a heater, but most fresh water fish tolerate some changes. Good luck.

1 of 2 goldfish has been upside down and struggling..been doing this off n on for 4 mos but has been consistently upside down for 2 days now..was advised to not feed for 3 days...this has worked before but not now..I soak the flakes before feeding ..
You can fast him for 3 days, but then feed bits of cooked and shelled green peas. This may help if Clyde is constipated. If the peas don't help, consider a broad spectrum dewormer or broad spectrum antibiotic. You can find both in the aquarium section of the local Petco. Follow label directions carefully and remove the carbon filter insert during treatment if indicated.

I have a freshwater pufferfish and he isn’t eating the fish flakes like the other 6 fish in the tank (red tail shark, clown loach, and tetras). Do they need to be fed live or frozen food? He also butts into the aquarium walls here and there. Is this
Most puffers will not eat flakes or pellets. They need live or frozen foods. They also require hard foods to keep their teeth worn down. The local Petco will likely have these foods in stock. If the tank is overstocked, he may be stressed. He may also have an infection (bacterial, fungal or parasites) that are causing his symptoms. Ideally, a new fish should be quarantined for 2-4 weeks before being introduced to the main tank.

My fish has become lethargic, barely eats, has difficulty swimming, only lays at the bottom of the pond, and has a bleeding or irritated mouth. What could this be and how can I treat it?
Thanks for reaching out about Rhino. An infection is likely, but first check water quality parameters such as pH, ammonia, nitrites and nitrates. Correct any abnormalities. Infections around the mouth can be caused by multiple bacteria, but Edwardiella caused a disease called enteric red mouth. Laying on the bottom probably indicates the infection has spread to the swim bladder, causing it to fill with pus or fluid. Systemic antibiotics are needed. Antibiotics added to the water will probably do nothing. A veterinary visit is recommended to help with diagnosis and a treatment plan. Good luck.
