    What Is Causing My Bba?

    I have 3 tanks, two pllanted and one fake. The planted tanks are fine but in my fake tank which has been set up for about 4 years I've noticed a very small amount of black hairy algae. It's only on one ornament which is a fake log thing. I first noticed it a few months ago and scrub the orament...

    Help With Brown Algae

    You may be right. I have two planted tanks with no algae problems. The fake tank is fake because it's in a room that is pink and black so it's done out in all pink and black. Sounds horrible I know but it looks really nice all lit up at night. Everytime I clean it I consider just taking it all...

    I have an algae problem in my tank. It's been set up for about 4 years now and everyone in it is happy and healthy. This tank I did out to match the room and it's all fake.

    Bristlenose Pleco Help Please

    I bought one Bristlenose pleco a few days ago for my established tank. I haven't seen hide nor hair of it since I put him in the tank which is a bit disappointing as I do love them. I know they're nocturnal but my sisters two were out and about all the time in her tank. I'm wondering if it's ok...

    Bn Plecs

    From what I read and I'm no expert they should be kept in either a breeding pair or on their own as they can get agressive over territory with eachother.

    Help New Light Makes Everything Look Yellow And Dull

    The light went on my 60 Litre Hagen Elite tank. It's a T8 15watt bulb that says GLO Power-Glo on it. I went to my local market and picked up a T8 15watt bulb that says cool white on the box and put it in. I just went and switched on the light and it's making my tank colours look horrible...

    Nano Tank. Suggestions On How To Improve The Scape

    I do like this but I see other nano tanks and they look so much better and more spacious. I'm thinking maybe starting again with this tank. Putting in black gravel and getting rid of the coconut cave and moss at the back and adding smaller plants instead. Anyone got any thoughts or ideas? Do...

    Adfs With Female Bettas?

    I know you don't like me but I'll give advice anyway. I have african dwarf frogs with both females and males no problem. They love to hide so places like caves and lots of plants are good. They cannot swim very well so the water level must not really be above 12" Feed live food plus frog...

    Bubbles & Lights

    Only bought it yesterday but as soon as it arrives I'll post some. I had a look on ebay at vidds and thought that all blue looked better in the dark than the colour. I'm hoping I made the right choice because it took me ages to decide lol.
