  Not sure at the moment, need a new testing kit. They are due a full clean again I will do that and see if it helps, it's been set up for two and a half years, cant think what you mean by cycle it at the moment so can't answer that lol   They didn't even come out for food today :-/

A fair few months ago I bought some new mollies, I have three, two mostly black ones and one mostly white one. Everything was fine, and they were very happy swimming all around the tank, eating everything they could find and generally being mollies. But in the last month something seems to have...

Hi everyone I just have some questions as to my new fry. I did a little water change today and my only guppy started popping out babies (I had some more, but i've had them a while and the last one of the two died last week) thankfully I was there, got my breeding cage and caught as many as I...

I am fed up of taking it back, now I cover it with a towel and put a pillow down the back at night, so frustrating, but I'm hoping that it will eventually chill out as its seems ridiculous to have to cover it up ¬¬

No nothing like that :-/ every so often there are white bits floating around, like specs, but the rest is full cloudy I changed it ten days ago so it's realively clean water, i may do a quarter change see if it helps. I havent tested it just because I didnt know which test to actually do...

Hi again all I seem to be having some kind of water problems, I'm not sure if it's because of the filter though. I've never had any problems with my water, it's all been plain sailing, but at the beginning of the week it went cloudy. I checked the filter the day before yesterday and it had...

I havent bought any fish since my guppies which was so long ago I can't even remember! He seems to have disappeared this morning, I quite like him, I'm used to finding loads of snails, when I got the zebra snail I never expected to have babies haha i had over 50 at one point, but most die off...

Never fed them live food, I swear this snail is like a ninja snail, appeared from nowhere!

The only snails that are in there though have been born in there from the Zebra snail which must be over a year old now

Nope I know no-one else with a tank to swap and I didnt save any of my old filter media

I have no plants in the tank though :S all I have is the one fake one I bought this week, no other tanks and used no gravel or anything :S

I've just gone upstairs and checked on the tank as the light comes on at this time, and saw something weird on the front of the tanks glass. I've gone to look and it's a snail, which isn't unusual, I have snails, one adult Zebra snail that I bought when I first got the tank, and a few of its...

Not sure i'm going to take it back, I might call the fluval customer care line, see what they say. Both were bought from Pets at Home, but two different stores, and I believe they were two different batches, the first one was a new design on the box whereas this one was the same as the one I had...

That's what gets me about it, my original one was silent, completely, when I say this makes noise it's like a crackling sound, it's hard to explain.It's so much faff to do it all again, I got this one from a shop 40 minutes away, no-where had any. It's frustrating, partly because they're...

I left it on last night, it seemed to have calmed down a bit, I had to throw the old one away, the propeller and the magnet thing inside had broke so couldn't use it. I may try covering it, the tank is in a space that I have to force down the lid to fit it's so tight, but the back sticks up a...

I had a U2 for about a year and a half, and the motor packed in the other day so I had to go buy a new one, that one was silent and I thought I'd get the same so as I thought it'd be the same, but it rattled, and was frustrating. So changed it like I said but this ones the same if not a bit...

I posted yesterday about my Fluval U2 being noisy, I took it back and swapped it, but this one does it too so it must meant to make that noise, but I cant sleep with it. So I'm planning on turning the filter off at night, would this hurt the fish at all?

I cleaned my tank out yesterday, mainly because the filter wasn't working right so I decided to do it all. The motor had died, so I had to go out and buy a new one, so I bought the same kind, a Fluval U2 as it was a good filter, easy to clean and quiet, as the tank is in my bedroom so I needed a...

Hi, I've had my tropical tank going for over a year now, and first got 5 mollies and 6 tetra. Recently some of my fish have been dying off, one at a time over a period of a few months. I've lost 2 tetra which I've had from the beginning, 2 mollies and a fish I don't actually remember the name of...
