Very cute baby mollie, just behind my boesmani, she has been in there 2 weeks now and has really nice colours and pattern i think. And i thought this was a really cool pic of my bosemani at a great angle. in this pic you can see my 2 platties, my scissortail guppy, 1 very very fat danio and...

this is the main pic of the tank, there is plenty of great real bogwood. and a great piece of slate in with the rocks that was a bargain, the slate and rocks for £1.50! and here is a picture of 1 of my boesmani's and my mollies. i will post a pic of a cute baby mollie that has been in...

the fin is in my opinion pretty bad, the main shaft of the fin is there but not a lot after that.

Hello 1 of my albino cory's got stuck in the outlet pipe. i could not find him then all of a sudden i spotted him i somehow managed to get him out, his top fin was caught in one of the holes where the water can spill out. I have taken the spill cap put of the water as much as poss. his top...

i have a 2.5cm female baby mollie in my tank, there are 2 adult females and 1 male. will the father mate with his daughter when she is big enough?

thanks for all the advise. its been an interesting read.

best advice i have had regarding baby fish and letting them into tanks where they could possibly be eaten, is check the size of the babies and the size of your barbs mouths, if they wont fit in should not be a problem. i was worried about my first bunch of fry, i would double check off others...

Want to get a betta for a little tank i have, i know that most male betta are best on there own in smaller tanks as they go mental in large tanks and are teritorial i think. what is the mimimum they should be in. i have heard 2.5g but wanted to know if that is correct and what decor you would...

hopefully just hiding. best to get a trap / net for next time. good luck for the future.

if you want a pair of gouramis, you could get red robin gouramis, really nice and get to about 3in, and best kept in pairs. just thought i would add to the mix.

me and my girlfriend last week released our first fry in to our tank, she is a lovely white black and orange mollie, she is now about 2cm long and i would guess about 2 months old, i found her in the gravel of my old tank very luckily. and am so pleased to have "raised" (don't really know if...

you should be able to catch them. i have just this week caught ten! 3mm long mollies. i would put him/her in a net or floating trap ( i use the latter) I would do this as the only reason we knew we has them is my partner saw one being eaten by another fish. I have just released my first fry...

I just Bought a Bristlenosed Plec for my 40 gal, They reach about 6 inches. Not that big in P lec size's

Thank you all, i feel a lot better knowing i did the right thing.

I did my research, this is best way to go takes 2-3 sec, and go into a cold enduced shock. and therefore die. I was not the question anyway.

Last night I placed my angel in some very cold water with ice to ease her pain, she was for 2 hours completly all over the place and had no control over her smimming, she was upside down lying on the bottom of the tank sideways and seemed very poorly. I have read that this type of thing can...

Thats good news. will keep an eye out. Thank you for your replies

I bought a Bristlenosed plec on saturday, he is about 1 inch long in my 40 gal tank. I have not seen him since. we have 2 nice pieces of bogwood that have some nice hiding places plus other plants and ornaments. I wonder if he is hiding, I was wondering if i read correctly that they can go...

People can come across condesending, but that may be the way we read it. I hate people being sarcastic. There is no room for that. I hate getting a reply to a question that does not answer the question but simply tells you what you are doing wrong, if they answered first then told me what i...

newbie. 2 months

Get a breeding box or net. cheap at your lfs. this is what i have done. i have 1 fry in a box at the min. and feed broken up flake. You place the box or net in the main tank and scoop out your fry and place in said box/net this will keep hungry mothers from eating her own babies good luck...

Black Phantom Tetras, about 6. look great. the way they move is fantastic.

i have a baby mollie/platty, not to sure yet. he is about 1.5 cm big, he is in a breeding box. I have a community tank with the biggest fish just 6 cm. (mollie) how big does this baby need to be to make sure it is not dinner?? Thank you.

Has to be my orange mollie, really nice bright colour. really stands out. He reminds me of me, always trying to sex up the females! He embarsses me though, he would win hands down in a who sleeps-a-round-a-lot competition! He makes me laugh anyway.

1 more to the mix, another tetra, but i think black phantom tetra's look great in shoals.

In my hunble opinion it really helped my tank having the airstone, a lot of my livebearers were gasping it seemed, after adding the airstone and leaving it running 24/7 they no longer do this. I also had 2 fry and i turned off the pump one night to clean and forgot to turn back on, my fry were...
