this isnt a chat line, sometimes it takes a little while to get a reply. if you use the search feature and look around, you will more than likely find the solution to your problem. for anyone here to really help you, they need more information. the size of your tank? in gallons or liters, whatever you prefer. how long has your tank been set up? was it properly cycled? what is your water parameters? angel need about 20 gallons of water per fish, so your more than likely well overstoked unless you have like a 45-55 gallon tank. read up on angel in the profile section http://www.myfishtank.net/reviews/showproduct.php/product/59/sort/7/cat/5/page/1

i doubt anyone will try to answer your question without some more info.

what does T.T mean anyway?

Bigdaddy, I was wondering the same thing about the T.T. He started another thread so I guess he thought no one saw this one or something.

How old are you, if you don't mind me asking? Breeding fish is a huge responsibility, and the water conditions have to be just right. :eek:

Why would you want to breed a fish that (most likely) has a disease?

Sorry, I'm not trying to jump to conclusions or assume anything here, just trying to get a better understanding of the situation.... :)

I would worry about your sick fish first. To find Info. look it up.
We need to know what you mean by 'thingy", and since your having some difficulties explaining whats wrong maybe some pictures label with which fish is sick and what makes him look different. You should look up what you would call the infected area of your fish on a search engine to give us an idea of what to look at in the picture and remember we are not always mind readers and have a hard time finding a possible cure when so many diseases.( It may be too late if your fish is loosing scales.

P.S. If we do know your age we may be able to explain your illiness of your fish and how to treat it, in an easy way.
