I will answer all questions as best I can, and if I am unsure of the answer, I will be willing to do research. I can answer questions about tetras, especially neon tetras. I can also answer questions on common diseases and parasites and how to treat them, and tank setups, maintenance, and cleaning. I can provide info. on cichlids (including breeding), goldfish, raising and breeding fancy guppies, and feeding your fish. If I don’t know the answer to your question, I will research and tell you my findings.
Experience I am 16 years old, but I have owned at least one fish tank since I was in elementary school. I now have a tank dedicated to raising and breeding fancy guppies, with much success. I have another tank with goldfish, which I’ve had the longest, and a larger tank with convict cichlid cichlids, which I have successfully bred, jewel cichlids, and an oscar. I’ve also raised and bred other cichlids as well. I used to have two other tanks, one with angel fish, and the other with tetras, which I recently got rid of. I’ve raised other fish such as catfish and gouramis along the way too. Since I have had fish so long I know much about diseases, and parasites, and how to treat them.
At the time i am writing this now i have:
1 Oscar
2 Jewel Cichlids
1 betta
6 goldfish
1 Kuhli loach
1 Rainbow shark
1 pleco
25 guppies
6 adult convict cichlids
30 young convict cichlids
Organizations I am hoping to volunteer at Hawk Creek.
Education/Credentials im only 16.... but I've been on the honor role my whole life(averages in the mid 90's), and im taking college courses in highschool.
Expert: Shorty Date: 8/29/2007 Subject: I think my fish are mating!!
Question I have a neon fish and another fish that is hot pink I'm not sure what kind they are but they chase each other a lot. i have had them for about a week now and one day my fish take was really bubbly and foamy at the top. but the way they are always chasing each other makes me wondering if they are MATING!!?? so what do you think?? please answer back!!??
Answer well, neon tetras lay their eggs on the bottom, so the bubbles at the top are from something else. it could be possible but its highly doubtful that a neon tetra would interbreed w/ another kind of fish. neon tetras are hard to breed, so i think the fishies are just really good friends. i hope this helped! ^_^ let me know if u want any more info.!
