How long to Tetras, Molly's live for? Plus do many small tropical fish live around the same time?

My plants can turn from green to brown due to the waste and debris that floats around, I was wondering how people clean the plants, or keep them free of waste?

How often should I do a water change on my Juwel Vison 180L tank? And how much I normally do 4 buckets ever 2 weeks.

I have a Juwel Vision 180 tank, I do weekly water changes but the water always looks a little green and not the nice colour it was when I look at the photos of when I first bought it :) Any hint would be a great help.

Those pictures look great! How do you keep the water so clear. What i mean my water is clear but has a sort green look to it sometimes. I always do weekly water changes too. Also i can't find a good (UK) site for parts/replacements for the Juwel tanks, I remember ages I had found one, but...

Do you have a pic of your tank? Also where can I get one of these syphon tubes from, I'v heard you can get powered ones too...

Hello, I have a Vision 180 and was wondering if the entire black filter box can come out to be cleaned? The glass around the black filter box is very dirty and I can't get to it to clean it. Also is there a trick on cleaning the lighting tubes, mine are layered with something? TMany tanks

Sorry I didn't understand that first part. Maybe the Aquarium will take em.

My tank keeps giving birth to mollies, I think I know which 2 it is. What can I do? I take the 2 will just keep on breeding for ever, what I mean is there don't have a limit? Also discusting as it is :) will the brothers and sisters breed together too? I don't have another tank to move them.

I have a 180L tank (47 US Gallon) and one day I noticed 2 small baby fish (Molly's) swimming about. Sadly one died, but a bought a small tank (which floats in my big tank) to put the small molly in until it's to grow big enough to mix with the other fsh. Anyway I have noticed one of my other...

Hi, mu ammonia test proves fine too. Just that PH.

I have 4 clowns, they sorted my whole tank out in days. Their rewards was some extra food for.

Hi, I have a 45 US Gallon tank (180L), it contains real plants and I have 2 air pumps blowing air from the gravel base upwards. There are about 30 inch size fish. All the fish seem fine. I have just done my weekly 25% water change and all my tests. My PH is 7.9 which I think is a little...

Hi, in my 45 gallon tank (180L) I have noticed some small snails appearing, are these a good thing or bad thing to have? If bad how can I get rid of them? Thanks S

Hi my tank has been up for 2-3 weeks now (180L or 45 Gallons). It a buge tanks and all I have are 8 Tetra's in there. My Nitrite levels are high 0.7mg/l and I have done daily water changes (10-15%) and at the same time I've been adding "Stress Zyme" bacteria (2 tea spoons). But the levels...

Hi, I have a Juwel Vision 180 tank, I was wondering when I do a weekly water change do I add the live bacteria (filter start I think) to the water I'm adding or to the filter system I have. Thanks Shadowfax

That's fine, how often would you do a water change? it's a 180L tank or 45 Gallons.

Not anymore, would small daily water changes be a good idea or once every other day?

Would small daily water changes be a good idea?

Hi, you say it happens with livebearers, what are livebearers? And why does it happen?

Hi I have a couple of fish who look poorly. They don't have fungus or fin rot, but one Platy looks like it's either giving birth or it's intestines are coming out from underneath. Also I have a Albino cory cat and underneath looks very sore :sad: I checked my water and quickly my water has...

Hi, I have finally moved over to real plants, I wondered how often I add flora boost?

Thanks Paul MTS, he is so difficult to find. I stick an algea table in the tank at night, just hope he finds it.

Nice pictures, in your vision 180 do you point you pump up or just straight out, it's just my little fish (Tetra's) can handle the new current in this tank.

Because of my new tank "water current" all the fish seem to stay at the bottom right of the tank, probably where the current is most weak, is this normal?

I took a quick photo, sorry for the bad quality:

I'm getting more fish the weekend, I lost a cory in my last tank, he will get a new family in a few days. I do have the angle pipe connected to the pump which also has an air filter pipe to create bubbles. I am getting an extra pump/bubble maker for the bed of the tank next month too. That...

Hi. I have gone from a small tank which had an under gravel filter and a small pump that produced bubbles to a Juwel Vision 180 tank. This new tank has a powerful pump that pushes water in a cycle (all new to me!) so the water is filtered through. The fish just don't understand why they are...

How often do you clean your gravel bed and do you just use a gravel hoover? Thanks in advance S

I think addinf the fish would be best..

Hi, my other tank is fine after a water change, but it is much smaller. Your right the tap water is not far off too. The fish I will transfer are: 2 x Platy 6 x Tetra's 1 x cory cat 1 x nocturnal algae eater (gift - pleco type I think)?

I have a new community fish tank (upgraded to a 180L or 45Gallon). My test indicate that the Ph level is slighly too high for my fish to be transferred to my new tank. The chart says my Ph level is between 7.6 - 7.9. How can I reduce it? This is after I did a 30% water change earlier today...

I have just bought a Vision 180 tank (180L or 45 Gallons), I will transfer these fish from my old tank, but wondered how big they got and their life expectancy? Fish: 2 x Platy 6 x Tetra's 1 x Albino Corycat 1 x Nocturnal algae eater, (gift) think it's a Pleco type? Can't find a picture of...

Hi, what is the difference between marine fish or community fish tanks?

Looks like I'll go with a fishless cycle by adding ammonia, i have a bottle of live good bacteria, so I'll add that too.

Thanks, my last tank used an undergravel filter which I hated, what filter media could I take across from that? Maybe not much....

Thanks, my water has only been in there since Sunday (3 days) I have new gravel etc. The ph levels are 8.3 ammonia is 0.0. If I take some water out of the other tank, would that be a good idea? For my reference what will adding ammonia do? something like breaks down nitrite to nitrate maybe...

Hi, I have bought a new tank (45 gallons) I can't transfer my fish because the nitrite levels are a little high (0.2mg/l light pink) - how can I reduce this? Thanks andy

I have a toube out the side with part of it out the top which grabs the air, think I will get one to add to the bottom of the tank so bubbles come out of the gravel. What size sponges do I need to buy, they come in 3 sizes, compact, standard or jumbo?

WOW that's a cool tank, it looks really nice :drool: Have you installed extra bubbles anywhere?
