    Feeding My Hippo

    I have had my hippo tang for about 5 months and was wondering if anybody else out there can feed it by your hand. Mine is such a pig I can put a pinch of flakes between my fingers and she will eat from there. Maybe thats the advantage of having my tank in my office she is not afraid of me...

    Blue Hippo has a wierd new spot...help please

    My hippo had a very bad case of ick and I started to treat it but it slowly got better. I never did a thing but fed it very good.After about 1 month it was completely gone and hasnt returned.I think controling the water temp is very important for hippos.

    Blue Hippo fin

    I purchased a blue hippo about 2 weeks ago. It is doing great but the top first fin(dorsil) has the bone sticking out instead of skin covering it.Its looks funny because its a solid white. Will the blue skin grow back over the fin???
