My newest addition is perpetually grumpy and I’m a fan

After a couple of years of begging & finally saving up for it our girl has two black moors in a 54 gallon with a Marineland canister filter rated for 90 gallons (I’ve read goldfish are messy!)

Why do they chase and eat the ryukin's booty? Should I be worried?

just got some duckweed today!!!

Are my fish healthy? I think they are just different colors naturally. I also think they might not be getting enough to eat, I think my filter works so well it removes all the flakes really quickly! Is that possible?

Black dot on shub

My shubunkin seems to have a brownish black dot on her side. It was there when I got her. She isn't showing any noticeable signs of illness. Maybe it's lice or maybe it's a parasite? I can't find anything online that seems similar.

Also she has one full black eye, and one with silver in it?

It's a 110/500 liter gallon pond with her and two other commons. Water is 0 am 0 nI and 20 ppm nA. I do regular water changes.

Thank you so much!

My goldfish keeps trying to jump out of the water, please help

Posted: 18 Apr 2019 08:21 AM PDT

On April 7, I noticed there was a fairly large rip in one of the fish's tail (should also mention that that fish has been looking anorexic for a while but I don't know why). Further inspection shows others also had some rips but very slightly. pH, ammonia and nitrate are all fine probably because I did an 80% water change on April 1.

I asked an aquarium owner and he said to put in 2 tbs of Epsom salt (roughly 95 liter tank), and Pimafix in case it was bacterial. As soon as I put this into the tank, that anoxeric fish made really abrupt movements, smashed itself against the tank then tried to jump out of twice.

Next day or 2 later, the bottom bit of the tail had come off, and yesterday I noticed the top bit of the tail had also fallen off.

Just now I heard loud splashing sounds and went out to check, only to see that the same anoxeric fish swimming crazily, smashing here and there and almost struggling to swim. The bottom fins and tail have all got bad rips. Water test shows pH is fine.

Can someone help me? I don't understand what's happening and I don't know how to fix it. Should I separate the fish into an individual tank?

Edit: https://ibb.co/92Y0Ntt this was taken on Apr 9, the rips are far worse now but as you can tell there's a massive rip in the tail

Pairing loaches with fancies

Posted: 18 Apr 2019 07:31 AM PDT

I have a 60gal I'm currently cycling with the plan to add two fancies (a red fantail and a black moor ideally), two dojo loaches, and a handful of nerite snails to help with algae. I've gotten some mixed info on whether black moors specifically can live with dojos, whether fantails will see another type of fancy as a worthy companion, and on substrate. All my online reading led me to believe both goldfish and loaches prefer sandy substrate but my lfs owner completely advised against it, saying sand will release pockets of gas, loaches don't burrow, and goldfish are better off without substrate. So now I'm in a "well, fuck" position with a tank of mixed sand and gravel substrate (attempting to recreate a realistic river bottom). I need to add more so now I'm stuck trying to decide on more sand or more gravel.

LFS has dojos but they are teeny tiny, less than 2" long. I'm thinking I should get my two dojos first and let them grow before adding goldfish that may eat the small loaches? Do black moors and fantails and loaches coexist happily? I've heard that black moors are slower than other goldfish so they might lose out on food. LFS has them separate for that reason. Is a 60gal enough for the four of them? Sand or no sand? Anything else I should know before moving forward?
