Ich looks like sprinkled salt all over the fish

Your dress! 🤩 congratulations Mrs

🥰

Just so happened to be my water change day today...I'll let you know in a couple of months 😂

Nice water change and hack back done. The Balansae is really curly and doesn't seem to want to grow taller. I'll shove some root tabs in tomorrow to see if I can give it a boost, there's lots of new leaves so it's still growing. I've had a dormant lotus bulb sitting around for the best part of...

I've wrapped it in some wet filter floss and stuck it in the fridge 😎 I wonder how long it should be left there? A month...2 months?....3 months? 🤷‍♀️

I'll race you 🏃🏻‍♀️

Can't hurt to try?

It's very frustrating...mines been like this for over a year now 😕 pretty pants to be honest

Mine arrived with some sprouting so it didn't take long to get going...but over time the leaves died away (I neglected it unfortunately) and now the bulb just lays dormant 😐 I wonder if I should take it out for a few weeks and let it dry out? 🤔

That's good to know, thank you! I've just used potting soil for now, it retains a fair amount of moisure so it's probably a bit too wet, it's a warm day again here so I'm hoping it will dry out a little but if not I'll blot it with some kitchen towel tonight. Will the mites somehow get into my...

Well 🧐 not impressed. My worms arrived this morning....and thankfully, I was fine and not grossed out at all. They came in a zip lock baggy with soil and dry kitten food as well as a little laminated card with aftercare instructions....AND MITES. Honestly 🙄 I've tried to take a video to show...

I'm not planning on it 😅 just trying out the live foods as it's something I'm pretty new to. The mozzies did well over the summer, my rainbows enjoyed them immensely! I noticed a huge change in them from colour and behaviour to general health and wellbeing. I really like the idea of fresh, live...

Where do you buy that?

I hate the quote tool as well, I use it only when caffeinated enough to function...and even then it takes me ages to deal with

I don't know much about Cane Toads except that they give dogs one heck of a trip...

Looks great, the plant on the right at the back is java fern, it will die if you bury the rhizome (the bit the leaves grow out of)...you need to pull it up and tie it to the wood with some cotton thread or you can glue it with some cyanoacrylate super glue 👍🏻 it pulls its nutrients from the...

Well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

👀 following....although what's to stop you keeping them indoors?

My gorgeous Margot. She's a 5 (or 6) year old Jack Russell Terrier, an absolute sweetheart with a beautiful temperament. Unfortunately she's afraid of her own shadow and we're still working on desensatising her to life, any sudden movement or unexpected noise has her fleeing, cowering or...

I'd like to try the fruit flies too...I had a lot of mosquito larvae and at one point over the summer I was feeding them twice a day every day! And that was just from the one tub. I tried growing out baby brine shrimp but the culture kept crashing after about 3-4 days, I'd like to keep trying at...

Ah yes...MTS...we've all been there (are there)! I don't know if it's an itch you can scratch and be satisfied. I've had a few tanks on the go due to obsessing over certain fish and wanting to try new things etc etc....but I did get a little overwhelmed and found it difficult to find time for...

Definitely not one that dumps bodies....I do have a pet werewolf called Colin though, he does a good job of eating them all up 🤣

They can be OK, but OP doesn't want the numbers...it was an either/or situations

Sorry @Byron we're getting all mixed up here aren't we 🥴 OP is happy with his two large shoals and would like something more as a centrepiece rather than another large group of fish to occupy the bottom of the tank. He's just getting back into the hobby and doesn't want to overcrowd the tank...

OK so I've bitten the bullet.. I bought a grindal worm culture starter 😬 I'm already nervous. I feel stupid feeling so grossed out over these things...come on Cap...put your big girl pants on 🧐

DO IT

I think filling 400l with nano fish can look spectacular...

I'm just teasing Wills 🤪 I'm assuming he wants it for spot cleaning certain areas?

You're going to need a bigger brush for 300l 🤣

Does he need more females or will 2 be OK? Does he want more females? 🤔 how many do you want James? 🥴 I'm going cross eyed now...

Do you have some suggestions for James? I feel the guy is totally confused and overwhelmed here and is struggling to make a decision based on all the conflicting advice he's getting. It appears he feels despite his soft water that he's limited to what he can have due to compatibility. He already...

We'd been looking at Apistogramma 👍🏻 pretty sure they'd be fine with cardinals and rummynose

So if you're not getting corydoras then the dwarf cichlids are available. It's time to make a decision so we can help you find the fish you like the most. Yes or no on Cory's....

If you're not getting corydoras then dwarf cichlids are fine

Noooooo thank you 🧐 When I first moved in with my husband, I convinced him to take out this old pond he inherited in the garden. It was a rancid wreck, beyond salvation and the only life it sustained was something from another planet...or at least, so I thought. I smoked at that time, and as I...

Good grief 🥴 I can handle a frog but that thing is enough to get a squeal out of me

😁 no probs....now scrub the decks you scallywag 🧐
