my cat has a sensetive stomach and the vet put him on royal canim adult pd diet.. 1 is duck and other rabbit . would like to know if there is a fish food i can get for him....thamk you
I don't think Royal Canin makes a dedicated fish diet for cats. i'm not sure why you are looking specifically for a fish based diet, if it is because you know for sure that he is doing better on such a diet i would recommend ORIJEN Six Fish Cat Food.

Hi there! Having a few questions: i dont know what is happening, all of our fishes are always dieing. I would like a fish expert answer. What is happening to these blue fishes? On their skin there are multiple grey spots, and another fishes are getti
Check the water chemistry. The discoloration could be due to elevated ammonia levels which can cause "burns". Use a home test kit or submit a water sample for testing. The local Petco may do this for free or for a small fee. Aim for an absence (0 ppm) of ammonia and nitrites with nitrates at 20ppm or less. Perform partial water changes to stabilize chemistry and/or to improve water quality. Use only conditioned water that is temperature matched to prevent stress or shock. The Neons (blue fish) appear to be infected with Ich, a parasite. Treatment is possible with commercial products found in the local Petco. Follow label directions carefully. You will need to treat the entire tank until all traces are gone. Removing a lump from your fish on your own is never recommended. You can cause severe injury. Most broad spectrum antibiotics (Kanaplex, Maracyn, Maracyn 2, etc.) found in the aquarium section of the local Petco should help treat or prevent infection. Choose one and follow label d

1 of 2 goldfish has been upside down and struggling..been doing this off n on for 4 mos but has been consistently upside down for 2 days now..was advised to not feed for 3 days...this has worked before but not now..I soak the flakes before feeding ..
You can fast him for 3 days, but then feed bits of cooked and shelled green peas. This may help if Clyde is constipated. If the peas don't help, consider a broad spectrum dewormer or broad spectrum antibiotic. You can find both in the aquarium section of the local Petco. Follow label directions carefully and remove the carbon filter insert during treatment if indicated.

Hi, I'm putting water to his dry food water to make it mositure because that's he would only eats and he likes it. But in the second day, he ate less of dry food. Oliver is active and looks like very healthy. I feed him wet food twice every morning a
I think fish flavored food is just fine. I would just offer him dry food with no water on it and leave this out all day for him to nibble on it. Then I would also offer him a small amount of canned food (a spoonful) once or twice a day. If he continues to refuse to eat, then I would have your vet look at him. Your vet will be able to do a fecal, bloodwork and even X-rays if needed. Your vet will be able to get him started on the proper meds to help him feel better and help increase his appetite. I hope this helps.

My fish is swimming upside-down. She also has a huge stomach. Is it possible she's flipping over because she's going to have eggs or is it because she has a swim bladder disorder?
This is a classic sign of swim bladder disorder. Check water quality and chemistry. use a home test kit or submit a water sample for testing. The local Petco may do this for free or for a small fee. Aim for 0 ppm ammonia and nitrites with nitrates at 20 ppm or less. pH should hover around 7 and water temp should range between 65 F and 72F. Perform a partial water change is necessary to stabilize chemistry and improve water quality. Use only conditioned water that is temperature matched to prevent stress or shock. Pristine water quality is the foundation for recovery and healing. Next, fast her for 3 days. Resume feeding bits of cooked, shelled green peas until she is swimming and defecating normally. You can fast her one day a week in the future and offer green peas to maintain regularity. If symptoms persist, consider a broad spectrum dewormer and a broad spectrum antibiotic. You can find both in the aquarium section at Petco. Follow label directions carefully and remove the carbon fi
