Hi Guys I have 4 female guppies and one male,they all look huge and seem to act strange. I take the fattest one out put her in a breeding tank for a few days and nothing, i do this with the other 3 and nothing. Last week i found a few fry living around the filter,these are quite large so think...

i m pretty good with the amount i feed them, twice a day and not more than they can eat. I am pretty convinced that the problem is this "bloom" effect, as this morning a noticed one of my baby mollies (only 1 left now) has gone missing, which seemed to be fit and healthy yesterday, so something...

hi, i have a juwel 125 litre tank, over the last few weeks the water has a funny yellow tint to it, i thought i may have been the start of alge, and add the anti green solution, but its still there. Could it be leeching from the bog wood, or is it a normal colour thanks

hi i havent tested the nitrates, i assumed these would be okay once the ammonia is right, as as the other fish in the tank including the babes are doing well, i assumed it was ok. i use API test kit

hi Just actually remembered, i placed the plastic bag in the tank with its sides rolled down so it could get up to temperture, what happened was the bag snagged on the the side and tipped and the 2 guppies escaped into the tank, i guess they bearly had 5 mins to becomes use to the water. The...
