Thanks for the advice about the sand and filter. I moved the sand away from the filter last night and also put more water in to slow down the filter as I have a built in filter. I would like to find some small Malaysian snail/s if possible

I now have a problem with the sand in my tank. I think it's too fine and it's going through the filter leaving my plants and wood covered in sand, how do you stop this?

I was looking at getting some snails today -how many do you recommend?

That's how I fed my cories some of the time, extra food from the tetras. I have noticed I do overfeed my tetras but I only feed them once every 3 days

I feed my tetras micro pellets

Update: I have been doing water changes and feeding my cory blood worms and those wafers. This morning I checked on him and he was still alive but I tried to find him tonight and I couldn't find him in his usual hiding place. I had a bit more of a look around and found him floating dead in a...

I went back to the store and also to a different one and they didn't have the Omega One brand

Would one snail be ok? I'll have a look today. Also see the pictures below to see the change in my tank.

Those big yellow snails?

Good to know about never feeding before a water change!! I always feed them after. I've had my cories for at least 4 months and only really feeding them algae wafers so maybe it was due to their diet? So I went to the pet shop anf got persuaded into buying these sinking wafers but I got some...

Hi Byron, so how often would you feed the cories? (there's only one now) Also I would like to get more cories but once the amonia is sorted out -how many would you suggest? I'll go by the fish shop when I go out today and pick up some different foods for my Cory. I'll pick up some sand too.

That website doesn't bring up my tank. How many cories should I have? 3-4 was recommended to me. They were informed about what size tank and how many tetras I had and someone said to me they are a low to mid tank fish (not sure if that's how you word it) and tetras were mid tank fish so that...

Well the plants I got were from the pet shop so they should've been ok. The substrate -I have heard that a lot of fish do like sand better and I have been planning to buy some but just needed to wait because I didn't have a job for about 2-3 months. Got one now so will get some shortly. It was...

I haven't learnt yet how to split up the quotes so I'll just answer by different paragraphs. With the filter actually media I hardly ever touch it. Sometimes when I'm doing a water change I wash the media in the water I take out of the tank and I did do this when the first 2 fish died because...

Even though I'm a novice I do know this and I did a big water change when I found the first lot of dead fish. I forgot to mention I did do another water change yesterday as well

I have had my tank running for about 9 months. I had 4 corydoras and about 10 or 11 neon tetras. I do have a new tank but I'm trying to locate a new light for it and it's proving to be difficult! My new one is 90L but it's not set up or cycled yet. What do you mean by how am I maintaining the...

Here's some pictures of the plants in my tank and my last corydoras

earlier this week I noticed 2 of my peppered corydoras have died. I do have a testing kit and I did test the water and the ammonia was up a little. So I decided to do a water change, did that. Then I took some of the water I had in the tank before water change to the pet shop to see what the...

Oh I didnt know this about Anubia, the roots seem to be growing. I want it on the bottom, is there another way to do it apart from being on a piece of wood. There is already one on the piece of wood that I have in my tank.

I have a 380 Aqua One tank which is 34L. I was trying to have some floating plants in this tank but the waterfall filter is annoying for this! Any ideas how to redirect the flow or slow it down?? The plants just get pushed down to the bottom. I'm trying to block the light a little.

I wouldn't mind if the betta ate some of the shrimp, they multiply quickly from what I have read. What a gorgeous male betta!!

I thought the same and put the neon down

Thanks!! Yes round lump with white inside. How would I treat it? If one has it does that mean others would have it too??

Is this Neon tetra sick? It has a white bubble like growth on the side of its mouth
