When I got home today, I found 2 new fish in my tank. 2 cobalt blue Discus!! My other half had been out and bought them!! NOOOOOOOO!!!! She has wanted some for years now, I told her no but she bought them anyway. I know nothing about looking after them. She wont let me take them back to the LFS...

Ok, No problem.

Could you put my name on the Sailfin please. I am up that way later this week, Going to see a friend in Kimberworth

Are you near Chap or Thorpe Hesley?? How big is the sailfin??

I am giving my tank a good cleaning. Ive cleaned all of the plastic and resin ornaments with bleach and the have come up good. I have 2 pieces of corel and 2 pieces of rock that I need to clean, I dont fancy using bleach as I imagine they are porus. I have scrubbed them and boiled them but the...

Oh Hum

I have been giving my tank a good clean. Ive cleaned the plastic and resin ornaments with bleach and they have come up good. I have 2 rocks and 2 pieces of corel that need cleaning, I dont fancy using bleach on them as I dont know how porus they are. Ive tried scrubbing with a tooth brush...

About 2 years ago I bought 3 Green Severum's. I liked the look of them so 6 months after I looked into buying some gold Severum's. I was told NOT to mix Severum's, I thought "Sod it" and and bought 2 Gold Severums anyway. They have never fort, They all seem to get on really well. Anyway, One of...

Thats it, He's gone to the big tank in the sky :sad: RIP

I think so too :sad: , Fancy popping over to do it? Your only a couple of miles away :lol:

The grownths have gone, Problem is, So has half of the fishes face. The nose area is non existant. Help, Please. I have no idea what is wrong

The lump is white with a bit of red. Not sure if its soft or hard. It looks a bit like a cauliflower, Its been there for a couple of days now

No idea whats wrong here. I cant put the fish in the hospital tank as it was smashed. Seems bloated and floats on the top. Ive tried anti internal bacteria treatment, Had no effect

Dos he look bloated. Nope Any signs of flicking and rubbing. Its not moved for a day or so Any excess mucas on the gills or body of the fish. Nope What does it look like when he goes to the toilet.From what Ive seen it looks normal It sounds bacterial. Can you issolate him and try a bacterial...

Ive checked on the fish this morning, Its tail fin has fallen to pieces, There is very little left of it. Does this give any ideas??

Anyone?????? :unsure:

Ive now got another hospital tank 12" X 8" X 8" Ive caught the Poorly featherfin, It did put up a fight though, Seems to have plenty of life left in it. It has gotten to the point where it just lies on the bottom and moves once or twice a day. Could this be a swim bladder problem??

Ive just notice the fishes eyes have started to go cloudy if that means anything??

Ive tried to plant it, The silver dollars love to demolish it all though. I thought Wilder would have replied, She usually does.

Sorry, Nitrate is 50, Not 250. Its down to the tap water! Ive even taken a water sample to the LFS, He said the water is perfect apart from the Nitrate. Amonia and Nitrite are 0. The tank is a 350L with another Featherfin, 3 silver dollars, 1 spotted and 1 striped raphael catfish and 3 sevrums...

Ive done ok for a while (Welcome back; your last visit was: Dec 22 2007, 12:10 PM) Anyway, One of my featherfin catfish can't swim properly. I seems to have lost the use of its pectoral fins. In layman's terms, It can't steer its self. This is one fish I can't see die. I love my feather fins...

I should have said that I used super macro on the camera, That picture is showing an area that is about 1cm2

Ive notice the front of my small tank is covered in tiny worms of some kind, I have no idea what they are, Where they came from or if they are dangerous, Does anyone know what they are?

The Kribs vary from about 10mm to 20mm and the clown loach from about 30mm - 40mm, I need them to be about 50mm, If not, Pig Pictus will have a feast

I have a few clown loach and a few young Kribs in my, Small tank. They are all too small to put in my 350L without being eaten. Is there anything I can feed them to make them grow quicker?? I feed them on flake, Catfish pellets and bloodworm at the momment

There is a site the is for 4X4's only, £25 for the day. It is called frickley, Between doncaster and pontefract. There are quite a few sites like this around the country

My pictus eat my zebra loach and a sucking loach, The sucking loach was 2" long and the zebra loach was a touch smaller

I had one do this, Just swam backwards and forwards, Now I know why, I do have a white lined Pim and he has never acted strange, Had him for 3 years now, He is pretty big too, About 7"

I am getting my new 350L tank this week, What wattage heater is recommended??

In may I decided I needed a bigger car, I wanted something practical but something that I could have fun it, I bought a Mitsubishi Pajero, Here is what I like to use if for. Below are a few Pics, The rest are here http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y233/Avin...ley%2004-11-07/

OOO ERRR, It was nothing like that, I think it was caused by a few battle wounds on mine

Its a bit late to be an emergency but Someone may beable to shed some light on the problem Thursday morning I checked my fish when I woke up, No problems Thursday Evening I got in from work, All 3 of my clown loach had died, Everything else was and is fine. Why would this happen??

Well, After a week on his own with the methalyn blue, All is good, He is back in the main tank, Eating well, Very active. :yahoo: Shame a cant say the same about my clown loach :rip:

55 Gallon Got some corel and rocks but they have been in for over a year No chemicals have been added to the tank Nothing has changed, The setup has been the same for over a year without any problems. The fish does seem to have perked up a bit but I am still worried

Well, The piece shown in the picture is now hanging off, I could really do with some help here, Its not looking good

On Saturday one of my feather fin catfish was looking very lifeless, I took it out of the main tank and put it in the hospital tank, I added some anti fungus and fin rot treatment because it was looking a little battered, Today it looks even worse, It looks as if part of the fish has started to...

It shouldnt have been, I but about 20 prawns in a few hours before

I had 3, the 2 bigger ones were nasty and killed a few of our fish, I gave then to a friend with a cichlid tank, They seem to be doing alot better there

Very dead, I know you are not supposed to keep smaller fish with a large pim, But eating a 3" fish is rediculous. They have lived together for 2 years now without any probs.

Today our white lined pim has been acting very odd, Its been gasping, Very boated and lifeless. Ive been watching it all day to make sure it was ok, About 5 mins ago it had a right fit with its mouth wide open, It then coughed up our 3" sucking loach, I knew these fish were greedy but this is...
