I have a jar I use for flake foods that is usually half full. When getting to the bottom of it today, I remembered that I had read and heard that flake food ...
I have five orandas in a 55 gallon tank. They are all about the same size around 5 inches, with the exception of one chocolate that is about 3 inches. I put...
I've noticed that since I moved my two telescopes and my moor into a larger tank that they've gotten noticable bigger. I feed them a lot of variety,...
I was cleaning my tank today and my Telescope eyed goldfish flew into it. His eye came off in the suction. Right now he's swimming around like nothing...
Kim, Your fish may very well recover (although he will always have only one eye). I can imagine it is a horrific accident to have happen but it won't ...
I don't think anyone who doesn't have a fish they care about could understand how much hit hurts to know they did what I did. Had I been more careful with the...
Dear Kim, Don't be too hard on yourself. All of us have made mistakes and had mishaps. Not long ago, one of my lionheads swam into the force of the gravel...
I fed him this morning and he got plenty of food. I didn't break up the flakes so he was able to see them and eat them. He acts like nothing happend to him,...
Hello all, I am new to this site, it is wonderful! I am also new to oranda tanks. I have five orandas, four of them are about 5-6 inches, and one is much...
Hi, I think you have a few things going on. First, how long ago did you put the orandas in the 55 gallon tank? If it was within the last six weeks, you are...
Dear Kim, I am so glad to hear that Cheesy Poof is doing well after the eye loss. I know this was a tragedy and something that you would never wish to happen,...
The interesting thing about the double bubble-eyed fish I have seen them only on fish that dorsal fins. The variety of goldfish referred to a Bubble-eye ...

Thanks for all the replys. Cheesy Poof is doing well today, and I don't think that the eye loss has affected his ability to compete for food (he's usually the...
Dear Kim, I am glad that Cheesy Poof is doing so well. You must be feeling much better about this now. I would think that the eye socket will develop a layer...
I went to the pet store today... That little moor was dead. It wasn't just dead though, it was the center of a mass of cloudy white that was 1/4 of an inch...
Sorry to read this so late. I'm very sorry you lost George. He sounds like he had a lot of personality. If I ever lost my favorite (also a black moor) named...

Dear Kim, Too bad about the little moor with the ich :-( As for the moor with the fin rot, rather than buying a small aquarium, have you thought of buying a...
That sounds like a really good idea. I think I'll take a look at Target for a bin. I'll try to get a good sized one for the little fish to swim in, and a...
$$$25??? thats like $48 in Australia! Well, for a fish that sounds that good, I would do anything for it, but in the long run, black moors at that size should...

There is really no point in complaining to management. Chances are their numbers are hurting and they need to do anything they can to sell merchandise, which...
