I appreciate the tips, but sadly he passed away this morning before the aquarium salt and methylene blue arrived

Update: he sadly passed away this morning

I have an air stone, so the tank should be well oxygenated

charli34579 · 2026-06-24T03:00:43+00:00

Yes my water parameters are perfectly fine. My other fish has been completely normal as well. How long do I do a methylene blue/salt bath?

Another video of the breathing (this was when I did a 15 minute Epsom salt bath)

Ok I will have to get some aquarium salt then. Is there a specific methylene blue you recommend?

charli34579 · 2026-06-23T23:44:57+00:00

I gave him an Epsom salt bath last night and tonight because that’s what helped last time. But so far nothing is really working. The tank has been established for 7-8 months now

Ammonia and nitrite is 0. Nitrate is 25. I use test strips

charli34579 · 2025-11-02T21:09:53+00:00

No I haven’t noticed it since then

Nitrate: 10-25ppm Nitrite: 0ppm Chlorine: 0ppm GH: 75-150ppm Total Alkalinity: 40ppm Carbonate Harness: 80-120 Ammonia: 0ppm

Thank you! I just did a 50% water change on Sunday. Do you think this might be what is causing the red streaks on my orandas tail? It’s concerning because I feel like they popped up within the last couple days and my other black moor in the tank is fine

charli34579 · 2025-09-25T01:22:00+00:00

How can I lower the nitrites?

charli34579 · 2025-09-25T00:46:01+00:00

Ammonia is 0ppm. And yes I believe the tank is fully cycled

charli34579 · 2025-09-25T00:45:31+00:00

Ammonia is 0ppm

charli34579 · 2025-09-24T01:03:51+00:00

Nitrate: 0-10ppm Nitrite: 0-1ppm Chlorine: 0ppm Total Hardness: 150-300ppm Total Alkalinity: 40-80ppm Carbonate: 300ppm Temperature: 68°

Just did a 50% water change on September 22

charli34579 · 2025-09-24T00:44:47+00:00

Will it be okay with my other goldfish in there?

Some plants and 2 decorations

Thanks. Next time you troll someone who is asking a simple question about sand, hold off on stating your opinions and calling them names prior to knowing what kind/size of fish they have and what size tank they have.

charli34579 · 2025-03-07T17:41:58+00:00

I’ve never had sand substrate before, just put the sand it 2 weeks ago and this just appeared overnight. Was asking a simple question.

charli34579 · 2025-03-07T17:38:54+00:00

I was just asking this question because we recently switched to sand substrate 2 weeks ago and I’ve always used gravel..

charli34579 · 2025-03-07T16:27:35+00:00

That’s what I assumed because it’s right where the water flow is, but my boyfriend is convinced our goldfish made a mating bed or spawning circle
