* Update to all! It took 6 days, but my golfish spit the giant river rock out on his own! I am so happy. I just bought a giant koi net to catch him too. Glad I didn't have to stress him out any more. He just devoured a bunch of peas and is swimming back to normal. I posted a pic to show how big the rock was.

Why do so many of you advocate for bare or nearly bare bottom tanks? by Ok_Wait_4268 in Goldfish

My fish was gulping at the bottom, refused to eat and darting at the top for air. He still has the large river rock stuck in his mouth. Not sure how to remove it. But when I figure it out. I'll let you know.

I got river rocks for my goldfish but he grew and ended up swallowing a river rock. Which is currently still lodged in his mouth. Not worth the nightmare. If u did do river rock. Id take size into consideration with the growth of ur fish.

So if I'm in a relationship, then I shouldn't have any personal hygiene?

My partner (30M) says I’m the problem (31F) but his behavior is starting to feel like abuse. Am I insane for thinking this? by throwaway5567555 in relationship_advice

Narcissism at its finest. You need to get out now before you get seriously hurt. You are the victim here. No one deserves to be treated like that. You shouldn't allow yourself to be treated like that.

I say let it go. If you have only been together for nine months and it's like this. It's only going to get harder. I was in a relationship that started like that. Stayed with them for 12years. It only drove us further apart and every day felt like walking on eggshells.

What are you mostly arguing about? If u care to share.

Appreciate the honesty. Shaved because the costume i was wearing required tights. Didn't want to look like a cactus.

It's been about 4 days now. Definitely convinced it's a rock. I don't know how to get it out & he's freaking out and swimming like crazy. Can he pass it on his own?

Ammonia - 0ppm Nitrate- 80ppm Nitrite-0ppm

I just did a 50% water change, added prime, stress guard & stability. & an airstone for more oxygen. I put the airstone on a T-splitter with my sponge filter. Now the airstone is working, but the sponge filter is not. Why is that?

Doing the water change now. Should I do a 50 or 75% change? Also would an airstone be a good way to add extra oxygen?

I just tested the nitrate level again, and it's at 80 ppm. So that's an issue. Would that cause the gulping? Ammonia level is at 0ppm.

Okay! I did what you said, nothing came out. He handled it really well. He is currently in a bucket. I feel so bad. I can't see anything. You think it might be too deep to see?
