I have an issue, this involves all my fish I am moving from Georgia to Utah, and of course that’s a long distance by car, but if will also restrain me from seeing my fish due to the fact that I will be flying there. How do I feed them while they’re b
Thanks for reaching out. If is a good idea to fast for 1-2 days prior to shipment, this decreased feces and will help to keep the ammonia down. Typically clear bags are utilized with about 50% water, and 50% air/oxygen used. A local pet store might be able to assist, as they get shipment in (so have older bags and boxes, which need to be disinfected) and hopefully the skills to ship. Check with the airline also, box needs to be well labelled "LIE ANIMALS" and "THIS END UP". Sometimes a health certificate for interstate travel is needed, so contact airline and State of Utah, veterinarian. Good luck.

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This could be due to pain or discomfort as he could have hurt himself. However, it could also be coincidental. If he is otherwise doing well without limping, I think it would be ok to monitor him for now. However, if he develops a limp or any other signs such as crying in pain, inappetence or continued lethargy, have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They can check him for any evidence of pain and treat him based on findings. Good luck and have a great day!

I got a fish from the fair. Its orange, gender unknown. What do I feed it for the meantime, and how do I take care of it so it doesn't die. It's current habitat is a plastic bowl with a lid, probably the size of the ones people get at petsmart. Pleas
It sounds like you need to take a trip to your local pet store. The clerks there can help you pick out an appropriately size tank with proper filtration and heating that can help keep Sushi healthy. They can also let you know what water treatments you'll need for the water in your area, as well as test any water you bring it to see if it is OK for Sushi to live in. Pet stores will also carry commercial goldfish food which is a balanced diet that is given to them. It should have feeding instructions on it so you know how much is appropriate to give to Sushi.

It is no trouble at all. It is why we are here! The first thing to check would be water chemistry. This can be done using a home test kit or by submitting a water sample for testing. Most pet stores will do this for free or for a small fee. Aim for 0 ppm ammonia and nitrites with a nitrate level of 20 ppm or less. Perform a partial water change, no more than 30% total volume, daily to stabilize or improve water chemistry. Use only aged or conditioned water that is temperature matched to prevent stress or shock. The species of fish you have do best in the mid to high 70s F up to about 82 F. If you have a newly set up tank, it may not have cycled properly or adequately. This would have led to toxic levels of ammonia which likely killed your fish. A tank needs to run, without fish ideally, for 4-6 weeks to establish a Nitrogen Cycle. This time period allows beneficial populations of bacteria to colonize the substrate and filter media. These bacteria are responsible for breaking down ammo

My kitten is doing really well & having solid stools (after trying many foods) on Taste of the Wild Canyon River (Trout & Salmon). I have heard that it isn't good for cats to be fed only fish based diets but she is doing really well on it. Do I need
Hi there and thanks for posting on Boop by Petco! Feeding a fish based commercial diet that is nutritionally complete is just fine as long as Cinderella is not allergic to the fish in the food you are giving. Cats that are fed raw fish frequently is more of the concern as they can develop serious nutritional deficits and vitamin deficiencies such as Thiamine deficiency which can be deadly. It is for this reason feeding raw fish primarily to cats is not recommended. However, feeding a small amount of tuna from a can occasionally as a treat is okay and will not cause a vitamin deficiency as long as they are also eating a commercially prepared food. No need to change the food Cinderella is enjoying now. From what you described, it sounds like she has tried a few foods that may have been giving her runny stools so if she is doing well on this particular food from Taste of the Wild, then I would keep her on that. I hope this helps!
