    Advice needed. Disease or Evil Fish. 3 dead, 1 certainly dead by tomorrow.

    I haven't seen your other posts but as if I'd need another reason to get rid of such a filthy beast....rehome the monstrosity, do a nice big water change and get your new fish 👍🏻

    A few questions on blue-green algae

    I'm an advocate of rectifying issues as naturally as possible without using meds until absolutely necessary...cyanobacteria is a pain but you can get rid of it by finding the balance in your tank. It loves light and still water, excess nutrients wont be helping matters either. Remove as much of...

    Xanax dip in new timid fish ethicality?

    Create a safe and natural environment for fish and they won't be so timid in the first place! I'm blown away that some people would even consider this to be an option to be honest 😅 your first post had troll vibes and I'm still not convinced you're being serious, if you are....🧐 I'd highly...

    Fluval Flex 15 gallon build thread

    I'm interested! The plants have gone bananas! Looks lovely, I appreciate a wild looking tank, it must feel so natural to fish living in that kind of environment. I think cherry barbs are underrated, the males especially can get such a vibrant shade of red and they're definitely the most peaceful...

    Oops! Hopefully things will improve now that you've spotted the lights, I've done that a few times 😬 have you noticed any changes in their behaviour since treatment?

    Having a bit of trouble...

    Ah man, this is a deflating read ☹️ I wish I knew more about them to be able to help...we can research for a million years but still only truly learn when we have them in a glass box at home. My only advice is to get back on top of those water changes 😬 keep us updated!

    New to this! Got my tank about 4 months ago have a few questions!

    Hello matey, welcome to TTF! You've got quite a mix there haven't you? Bichir don't tend to be kept in a community style tank as far as I know, they grow big and will eat anything they can fit into their mouths so you may want to rethink what you keep with them in the long term? I'm not sure...

    Hello 👋🏻 welcome aboard matey!

    Injured cherry barb

    Sumos are big bullies I'm afraid and very territorial, you'd need to keep them in a big group to reduce aggression, I'm not sure if you could keep one on its own...otherwise you're better off rehoming them as they will more than likely bully each other and everyone else. As for your cherry...

    Fish Keeping & Pregnancy?

    Congratulations! 👶 I carried on as normal during mine, never bothered with gloves and I wasn't worried about test kits etc either...I'm not in the habit of spilling or drinking those so I didn't feel the need to be overly cautious. And I only really use mine when there are issues in the tank...

    Do you think I have a problem or nah?...

    Here is my first surprise orchid, she's not bloomed in a few years ... It amazes me how the flowers can change, when I bought her she was a solid white with a few sporadic spots. After a little dormancy (through neglect 😭) and proper care, she's adorned herself in colour!
