About tina quiao
Expertise
I can answer all questions about chemistry of water and I would say, I am familiar with almost all diseases of fresh and saltwater fish. I have had my 125 tropical salt and 45 agressive for yrs. I managed a petshop for five years and I am a petcare specialist for a large petchain now. I love my animals. I love this kind of work. Helping people keep their fish sucessfully is so rewarding to me.

Experience
I managed a petshop in Bridgeton called Petpourri for about 5 years...I am a petcare specialist for a large pet chain. I have 2 African greys, a Nandey conure,a potbelly pig, 2 rats and a hamster. Oh and did I mention a 125 tropical salt and a 45 agressive salt. I have had brakish and fresh. I am very familiar with disese and chemistry of your tank. I also have 2 senegul chameleons and the anoles that live in the bottom of their 37 high tank. We keep tons of reptiles at the store and keep a couple as pets love them all. I have worked in the pet business for yrs.....along with taking care of all of mine.

Question
I have a girl Betta in my community tank . She has white fuzz
on her back but she is not dead . Please tell me what is wrong
with her , is it a disease ?


Answer
Fernando,                                                               It sounds like she has a fungus. I would medicate with coppersafe. If your carbon in your filter is more than 3 days old you don't need to remove it.It will not hurt your other fish. It is by Mardel you can get it in your pet shop. It treats for 30 days just one treatment. Good Luck,Tina
