Congrats on the new guys!
Don't you just love the picky fish? At first, one of my cichlids I inherited wouldn't eat anything but live crickets. x_x It was a pain, but eventually he got used to eating pellets.
I'd love to see pictures of your fish sometime. =]

Congrats!They both sound beautiful.
Don't you love spoiled fish.My female betta Coral would only eat freeze-dried bloodworms for the first two days I had her.She now eats her pellets without a problem.

Hopefully you can put up pictures sometime! that would be neat. anyway you take care and thank you for the hints on my threads! take care. bbye.

Columnaris is a bacteria that looks like white fungus on the fish. Usually when people try treating fish for fin rot or mouth fungus and the fish die anyway, it actually was columnaris. Its a tricky bacteria, but its already starting to clear up with two days of treatment. I really do have to get hold of a good camera and get pics of everybody.

wow if i ever think that there is something wrong with my fish and i can't tell the difference between Columnaris and fin rot or mouth fungus i'll ask you! wow i never knew that before. thank you very much for letting me know can any breed and type of fish get it? (gold and coldwater fish/tropical fish?)

Yep, anybody can get it, there are very few diseases that only one type of fish can get.
