we have several cat fish in an aquarium at work some of them have changed colors in the past few weeks some remain a dark greenish brown and some are brighter one even changed to a pale gray …

My betta looks sad, altough i feed it ,change and treat his water,and always give him light! why is he sad?

Ive noticed that my discus color have change to a darker color since I broght them home from the fish store. I was told they live in average 6.5ph water condition. I tried doing that several times but ph is still too high. Now water looks cloudy. Maybe I put too much of that PH down liquid but still too high. Does this have anything to do with my white sand? Maybe this white sand making my discus uncomfortable.

I have a 55 gallon with 3 2″ cichlids, 1 6″ jack demsey, an algae eater, and a narrow black fish, don’t know what it is but he has a hammerhead and my son calls him a shark, but he’s not the typical silver type mini shark. He’s 5″ –> anyone know what he might be called?.

I have few fish & I haven’t done a water change in quite a while — about 10 months. We have very hard water so I know the water gets harder if you don’t do water changes and just keep topping off the tank, however, all of the fish were happy anyway & I had no fatalities.

(1) I did a half tank water change 2 days ago. How soon can I add new fish?

(2) While vacuumming the gravel, as you can imagine, tons of particles fog the tank during my cleaning. I felt really bad. Is this bad for this fish? Is it hard for them to breathe?

(3) Is it normal for fish to open and close there mouth inside the tank? I never noticed but am nervous

(4) Can I add Oscars to my cichlid/jjack demsey tank?
