Now she is back to normal, strange fish :rolleyes: Off to do a water change

Todays readings Ph - 7.6 Higher ph - 7.8 Ammonia - 0.25 Nitrite - 0 Nitrate - 5 One Mollie seems lethargic. She ate this morning but when I came home, she was hiding. She has been swiming with the others but is now in a rock. I did a 50% water change today. Should I not have done a 80% water...

Thank you for the advice :) I'm going to do a 70% water change today as I didn't do any water changes for 3 days.

Thank you for your quick reply :) I'll carry on with the 50% water changes.

I've had Ammonia in my tank for over a month so have been doing 50% water changes recently. I didn't do any water changes for 3 days as I have been ill. Done a water test today and these are my readings PH = 7.6 Higher PH = 7.8 Ammonia = 0.25ppm Nitrite = 0.25ppm Nitrate = 5.0 ppm This is...

I don't know what is going on now. Today's readings PH = 7.6 Higher PH = 8.0 Ammonia 0.25ppm Nitrite = 0ppm Nitrate = 5 ppm It may be possible that the PH was 8.0 yesterday as I was reading the results in artifical light but read today's results outside. I've now had 0.25ppm Ammonia in my...

Ok, so I've been doing water changes over the last few days. First I did 30% for 4 days but for the last three days, I've been doing 50% water changes. Latest readings are PH= 7.8 Ammonia = 0.25ppm Nitrite = 0ppm Nitrate = 5.0ppm The PH, I had been using the one test which only goes up to...

Bought a API liquid test kit for my brother for his birthday, wants to get into the hobby with a 200 litre tank. Was checking that the tubes were fine and the bottles had not been broached but one of my rabbits got a bit too curious about the test tubes and knocked one of them, resulting in a...

Thank you all for your welcomes :) Great to see other people from Wales too :D

Thank you all for your advice :) I think the fry is actually a Mollie ! I think it's too big to be a guppy. I've been doing 30% water changes for the last three days. Yesterday's readings were a little whack. PH = 7.6 Ammonia = 0.50 Nitrite = 0 Nitrate = 0 Today's reading PH = 7.6 Ammonia =...

:lol: Mia is a little monkey. She's a Miniature lionhead x Dwarf that was dumped in my garden along with Mollie on Boxing day 2010. I wouldn't be without them now even if I have had to separate them. Martha and Mable are rescues as are Mindy, Murphie, Maisy, Merlin and Minx.

We had our first snow in Newport yesterday. Was interesting walking home from work !

Thank you for your advice :) Would 20% a day be ok ?

Just tested the water straight from the tap. PH = 7.2 Ammonia = 0 Nitrite = 0 Nitrate = 5 I'm guessing this is what my tank should be ?

I've been trying to get the Ammonia down in my tank. I've been doing water changes but had to treat for white spot for 7 days. The 7 days were up Friday so I did a 30% water change. Changed 10% water yesterday but can't get the Ammonia down. It's been at 0.25ppm for about two weeks. No I did...

Interpet have an anti white spot medication, number six. I'm using it in my tank now.

Here are some pictures of some of my mollies and guppies My favourite fish and the only one with a name. "County" fish.

The Mollies look a lot happier this morning now. I'm going to put their plastic plants and rocks back in today, instructions said to take them out because the treatment will stain them, but surely the white spot could be on the decorations ? I'm going to test the water now. The instructions...

Thank you for the welcomes Hi Raf, Thanks for the advice. I have a Fluval Roma 200 with a U4 filter. I didn't have any mature media but was told that it was ok to start with some mollies. I now know it was too early to get the guppies but I trusted the guy in the shop. Got myself a water...

Trainee veterinary nurse :)

The mollies seem a bit stressed, rapid gill movement, but they are still moving around the tank. Anything I can do to try and relieve their stress ? I've got the lights off but have got the maximum oxygenation because the instructions on the treatment says it can take the oxygen out of the water.

Rio has been my nick name for about 7 years now. Infact, if anyone calls me by my real name, I probably won't respond :blink:

It's my 21st next month. I'm not one for parties so I'll probably watch a film and eat some chinese food :) But the weekend, I'm going to see Rammstein :D

These are the furry creatures that share my home :) Midge Mindy Milo Maisy Merlin Murphie Mollie Mia Minx Mable Martha

Hello everyone :) My name is Rhiannon and I am from South Wales, UK. I got my first tropical tank a month a go. So far I have 6 mollies and 8 guppies. My favourites are the Dalmatian Mollies but my favourite fish I own is the one in my avatar. Apart from fish, I have 9 house rabbits and 2...

Hello everyone, Just joined this forum today as I got my first tropical fish tank a month ago. Everything has been good until a week ago when I got 8 female guppies. About 5 hours after I got them, I noticed that one had white spot. So I isolated her. A couple of hours later, the other three...
