I'll need to find out, as I don't know. But for the record, I only said the first tank was smaller. I didn't say how small, and I didn't have all the fish I mentioned yesterday in it. Having a larger tank, I added a few more. The first tank was 60ltr and it was certainly not overcrowded. We've...

This isn't the first tank we've had. We had a smaller tank with mollies, neons, the CAE and catfish previously for over a year with no issues like this. This is the first instance. Water source is the same. Only difference is the size of tank and the filter etc being used.

UPDATE : So I think I found the source of the bacteria anyway... A molly had died and was lodged under one of the rocks at the back. Whether it died because it was caught or it just ended up there I don't know. It was covered in the same growth and most of its head was missing. Not the most...

Thanks. It was actually a relative who stocked the tank for my daughter so I'm not 100% on what type. The cherry barb is the only survivor from the mini shoal we had in the smaller tank as are the neons. We had 8 neons. He seems to be fine shoaling with the neons. The loach has always been...

Hi, thanks for replying. I'm not sure of the exact readings as someone else did the test. Nitrites are slightly above where they should be but all others are normal. (water change imminent in a few days anyway) Tank is 150litres and we currently have 4catfish (small) 1loach, 4 neons, 4gouramis...

Can anyone tell me what is the white covering on this mollys head please? It was all white a few days ago but looks like a piece has flaked off. It's still swimming and eating but I'm concerned it's something which will impact the other fish. So far, none of the others have any. It's been like...
