Awesome information thanks a bunch😁

[@naturesbravery2325]

Hello I been watching your channel for years but I never subscribed till today😁!

[@HairyKnees1]

Good info! Years ago I had fish breeding in my tank. Eventually, as generations passed, they became very inbred and started having deformities. Some developed clamped fins too, despite the rest of the tank inhabitants being perfectly healthy. (So, I separated the males into a different tank to halt any more breeding).

[@cameronaugustine9863]

What type of fishes did you have?

[@clarafargemartins7305]

Fofa fds

Thank you!

[@safwasebin7106]

Ahh iam relieved 😀

[@Miyori999]

I didn't know clamped fins were associated with ich. I feel better, as I'm currently 5 days into treatment of ich and wondering why her fins were clamped. I don't see any more spots, but she still rubs like she's itchy. The ich meds say to treat for a week minimum, so I'll continue to treat until she looks fully healthy, hopefully I can put the snail back in with her soon.

[@IfukedURgirl1]

You can check your heater by looking at your digital thermometer

[@blankblank9697]

hey, so my fish has had clamped fins for some time and i thought it's cause he has fin rot (white tipped fins)-and i've been doing medications for him. But just today he's made a bubble nest which every article im seeing says "im happy". Could someone help me in this dilemma?

[@nuclearme639]

This is very helpful. I bought a ballon molly from PetSmart and it was less then 2 months old and it dieded. It had clamped fins when I bought so I think I know why it died☹️

[@thenerdyfishgirl]

So sorry to hear 😢

[@deniseberrios1362]

I just saw a video from the CO Op instructing to not raise the temperature if the fish has velvet. I'm so confused!

[@johannadevere]

What about stress caused by bullying, you never mentioned that?

[@neonspaces8079]

Hello! I’m hoping to receive an answer; my goldfish is REALLY energetic but just last week he started getting clamped fin and i’ve changed the water but I really need some help with this, it happened honestly out of no where

[@fodrocksuk.forestofdeanroc5686]

I lost two cichlids because of clamped fins because the heater was displaying false ‘ON’ light but it had just stopped working. Till the time I could figure that out I had lost couple of them. Guys please buy thermometers!

I am a farmer and my own fish farm. But they are die from disease. There wings become a red.supernes golden my fish

[@leah425]

I think your first problem is that your fish have wings instead of fins.

[@tiffanyhoward881]

[@thenerdyfishgirl]

I will start working on a video to better explain this tomorrow, should hopefully be up by Friday, possibly sooner if I can.

[@CarlosRamirez04CMRGPTX15]

Your so pretty

[@tiffanyhoward881]

Omgyoash i called Petco and they said just use fish to make your tank Cycle she said that's the only way i said no !! On KZbin they say there is a fish fishless cycle Anyways i got the test strips api! Now ill get prime and start over maybe! Why does Petco say things like that!

[@indriawands]

up

[@tumble2731]

I just changed the water and we’ll she looked sad

[@farrahkuang7908]

The main reason why your fish might look more sad is probably because you changed more than 25% of your fish tank's water. Fish who experiance extreme water changes might get a shock and in some cases result death. So next time only change 25% or 1/4 of the water in your tank.

[@bldeblde594]

I like you... your so beautiful..😍😂

[@Dannysworlddd]

Someone at work won my comet baby at a fair and I took him home and he’s clamping 🥲 I feel badddd
