Oh awesome because cherry barbs are the ones I really wanna get. Is my tank big enough for them as I’ve seen some places say they need a minimum of 20g but I wasn’t sure

I also forgot to mention that the pH is 6.8 - 7.2

Hi I have a 64 litre tank 60x32x37cm (16.9 US gallons) and water hardness is 309ppm. I currently have 2 guppies, 2 endlers and 3 peppered cories. I have been looking at other fish that could go into this tank. I like the look of cherry barbs and flame tetras. Would a small school of either of...

Okay thank you for the help. Much appreciated

My LFS sell them in 5’s. Would that number be okay and would they be okay with my guppies?

The celestial Pearl danios ideally but if they aren’t suitable also the other Pearl danios

My tank dimension are 60 cm x 32cm x 37cm

Hi I have a 64 litre tank and the water hardness is 309 ppm. I currently have peppered cories and a few guppies. Would Pearl danios be okay in this tank and if so how many? Thank you.

Yeah I did consider this, but in the end I thought id just work with the water I have rather than trying to alter it. Thank you though

I’ll have a look into the ones you mentioned. Thank you for the help

I don’t have the biggest tank, it’s 64 litres and my water hardness is 309ppm. At the moment it houses 4 guppies and 3 peppered cories (I realise these are soft water fish but I didn’t know at the time). So struggling to find small fish that like hard water. Would go for all male platies as I...

Ah okay thank you, just trying to find some hard water fish other than livebearers.

Yeah I was looking at a website of a shop to see what they had but it didn’t say what it was on the website. Was just curious that’s all. thank you though

Hi, could anyone tell me what type of fish this is please (the black, white and yellow one)

Oh okay thank you

Ah okay thank you. I’ll stay away from the all male platy plan then. Thank you for the help

Are they American shops as I haven’t heard of them. I’m from the U.K. also I’ve always kept all male guppies and never had an issue with them. But I’ll keep this in mind, thank you

What about just a trio of male platies, I’ve seen mixed reviews in this. Really just don’t want the hassle of fry and I don’t know anywhere that would take them

Okay thank you, I’ll have a look at those, and I’ll have a little look into platies and see if all males would be okay for those.

Ah okay thank you, feel like I’m at a dead end and can only have guppies ? but they are pretty cool.

Thank for the replies, I know live bearers are probably the best option. I was thinking platies, however I wouldn’t want the issue of fry and I don’t know if all males would fight

Water hardness is 309.25 ppm and the pH is between 6.8 and 7.2. Sorry it’s a range and not an exact number. My testing kit isn’t great, trying to get another one.

Hi I’ve got a 64 litre tank with currently 4 male guppies and 3 peppered corys. Not currently looking at adding anymore fish mainly because I’m not sure if im already fully stocked. However I have hard water and I just wanted some suggestions of fish that can live in hard water and would be good...

Thank you, I appreciate the help

Hi, I have a 64 litre tank fully cycled and running since 2017. It currently houses 4 male guppies and 3 peppered corys. The substrate in the tank is currently gravel, however I have learnt that sand is much more suitable for corys and I have done research on how to go about changing the...

Hi, the water in my area is hard. Yeah I only have the phantom tetras as they were previously my sister and she no longer has fish now so I re housed them. Although I have never had an issue with them with the guppies, they never go up to them, had them about a year And okay I’ll take the Cory...

Hi, I just had a few questions about stocking for my 64 litre interpet fish pod tank. I have had the tank set up since 2017 and other than having some pest snails that Im trying to get rid of, I have had no issues I currently have 6 male guppies - (3 endler and 3 normal) 1 Peppered Cory -...

Oh okay :D

Okay so now we know he is a boy, is Home being fat a bad thing?

Thank you, i was starting to worry I was going to have fry to deal with.

Oh but in this photo the fin looks thin and pointed, sorry if this sounds rude like I’m questioning you, I’m just thought that the fin is pointed, I’m probably wrong as I am new to this. I have also started using a antibacterial remedy for my tank to try to improve the platys tail.

Ok thank you. I’ll keep an eye on my nitrates and the water changes, i belive my molly was a Short fin molly and was told they only get up to about 6 cm and was also told my platy was a Male as I didn’t want to be dealing with fry.

The tank is 64 litres, it has been set up since the 1st of November and had many Malaysian trumpets snails which where a pain to get rid of, anyway and I added my first fish on the 17th of November and added two other fish on 26th of november. My test kit says my ammonia and nitrites are down at...

Hi I’m new to fish keeping and this website. I recently bought 2 fish to go with my Male Molly, when I was looking at the fish in my tank I realised my Mickey Mouse platy has a small part of his tail missing with white around. If this is fin rot Is just changing the water okay and how often?
