-_- Can anyone advise on this please? Cheers, Paul.

Got a similar question so thought I'd add to this thread rather than making another one... I have an established tank a camen 80 and I'm now setting up a second tank as I want to change the gravel in my main tank and plant it. The filter will not fit in the new smaller tank so instead I've added...

Cheers fella! :D

Got a link to Wolfs article? :good: Cheers. Paul.

No rubbing that I'd seen. Will get a ph test kit (didn't manage it last night) and if all test's fine will replace the loach and catfish and monitor. Cheers.

I do have a thermometer. Will try smaller water changes.

Hi, Thanks for the reply, I posted pretty much just before going to bed so didn't get a chance to retest the water. The results seem pretty consistant whenever I check them. I use Stress coat de chlorinate the water. Fish are fed tropical fish flakes. The Loach I never saw really go for the...

Over the last 3 weeks or so 3 albino catfish and 1 clown loach have died and another clown loach probably wont make it to the mnorning. :( I've did a 50% water change on Thursday and checked the water today. Amonia = 0 Nitrite = 0 Nitrate = 5 I've not got a ph test kit at the mo. I still...

After this episode I'm deffinitley setting up another tnak for new arrivals to go in for a couple of weeks before adding to the big tank.

Subscribed to this thread, can't wait to see updates! :)

K looked round this site and found a post containing the following link... http://www.thatfishshop.com/health/neon_disease.htm That seems to be it, thinking back I do remember seeingthe white spot :( I assume this only effects Neons?

Hi, I've add 3 neons in a biorb for around 6 months, around 3 weeks ago I moved them (and the other fish) to a cycled 150 litre tank. After a couple of weeks I bought 3 more neons. After about a week or so one of the original neons dissapeared. then about a week after that one of the new neons...

Should be a sticky!!!!

Today (20th) Levels are; Ammonia - 0ppm Nitrites - 10ppm Nitrates - 255ppm Seems to be munching through the ammonia ok :) Hopefully not 2 long to go.....

Failing that Boots sell 'house hold' ammonia, white bottle blue cross on the front. For cycling try this link. http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=113861 I'm doing the add and wait method. Paul.

Yeah, I wanted something that albino catfish would stand out against but wouldn't be too dark. It looks nicer in the flesh. :D

****UPDATE***** Thought I'd stick an update on. After reading the posts regarding my queries I went to Boots the following day and purchased some ammonia. I began cycling on the 9th April using the 'add and wait' method. By the 12th the ammonia levels were as follows; Ammonia - 3ppm Nitrites...

That look like it! nice one :good: :good: :good: What's that then? :unsure: -_- :look: Ta :)

Bought this plant, my first, ever... at the weekend but forgot to ask its name. :blush: Hope this pic isn't too huge! Anyone identify it? Ta in advance. :good: :) It came attached to some bogwood, if that helps at all....

In the 'alternate recipe' article is that 5ppm or 0.5? no idea what ~ signifies... Cheers. Paul.

Cool, do you think the Neons were gasping beacause of the dust? Be good if I could transfer them all in one go.... Will look at the options, just bought a 500 ml bottle of ammonia from boots so ready to do a fishless cycle if need be. Ta folks!

Cheers for the replies. I've had the filter and heater running since sunday and it is getting better. On Tuesday I tested the water all seemed fine so I did actually add my 3 neons to the tank thinking the cloudiness wouldn't be a problem for them and that due to their small number nitrites...

Hi all, I currently have a Biorb 30 litre which (after reading this forum) would appear to be a little overstocked :blush: Current occupents are; 1 cherry barb. 3 neon tetras. 3 silver tipped tetras 3 lemonbarbs 2 'orange fish' name escapes me at the moment On Sunday I bought a 150 litre...

Hi, My names Paul I live in Cheshire UK. I've had the current tank, a 30 litre biorb for about 6 months now and have decided to upgrade. Bought this setup yesterday http://www.ferplast.it/en/pagina_247605.html Just reading up on cycling now... Cards behind the bar, what you having?
