I've had them for about 5 months, feels like forever though 😂 You could've sold yours!

If anything I dont want the barbs. They nip the guppies fins which I hate. They also destroy plants, I think the guppies would feel happier and safer if the barbs werent there. Saying that, do you think I could possibly get rid of the male? The females are friendly with other fish and dont...

Do you recommend them?

How big do mystery snails get? I think I would quite like one for my tank.

I dont particularly know what I have to fix though. By the way, 200l in the uk is smaller than basically everywhere else. My tank is 46 gallons I'm pretty sure. The guppies are still acting weird, they are eating and swimming fine.

Basically, I saw a 200l tank on ebay for only £65. It came with a lot of extras, so it was a very very very good deal. The man selling it didnt tell me what fish were living in it. In the picture it looked like there were some tetras, but apparently it was an old photo. I didnt see the peacock...

Okay, I can give you some info. The tank is 70l, I'm upgrading to a 200l soon. I have got 3 live plants, one is still adjusting to the water changes from its last tank. They have lived in that tank for almost 3 years (not the guppies) I cleaned the tank out about 2 weeks ago or less, which is...

Do you know why they're doing this though? I changed the water not too long ago and they were fine.

All five of my guppies are staying at the bottom of the tank, they havent lost any colour. I've only noticed them doing this today, I have a feeling I've over stocked the tank. I am trying to set up the 200l as quickly as possible but things are taking a while to arrive. Is there a way to...

The windows are definitely closed. I have no idea what happened. I also cant sleep tonight which is weird considering I came off melatonin 6 months ago.

If they are haunted, burning their vessel will let the spirit take over the house. Definitely dont want that😂

I love porcelain dolls, I have nine of them, and I'm planning to get more in the future. Two of them are meant to be 'haunted', I paid extra for them too. Let me introduce you to them.. The smallest 'haunted' doll is called Veronica, she died at 4 years old and she is supposedly very friendly...

Okay. My water is hard, is that better for plants? Once I've got all the plants set up in the tank, should I put fish food in there for the plants?

Okay. I will not get any co2 of any kind. Can I ask what are the 17 types of nutrients? Or at least how to 'get' them into the tank? I cant think of the correct words today.

Is there any specific root tabs you recommend? I found some pretty cheap ones on eBay, they dont contain anything harmful to the water or fish. I heard sometimes they contain ammonia?

Another thing, if my plants dont need If my plants dont need co2, would it kill them if I put any in? Some of them I listed grow stronger with a bit of co2 apparently. I was thinking the liquid kind, but will it harm my other plants?

Okay, I've checked and most of the plants listed are either medium or low, some high but 'can tolerate lower lighting if necessary' Do you think I should try with these plants, see how it goes and try different ones if these die?

Okay, I wont get the vallisneria. I think I'll get one anubias and see how that goes, I'll keep it under some floaters. Do you think 55x water lettuce is enough to cover the space? I dont want the whole surface covered. I've removed and added some plants to my list: Bacopa Australis Bacopa...

I've never had any glass protectors, my glass isnt scratched or ruined.

I thought the moss balls would be good for my shrimp and snails, apparently they are easy to care for too. I will get some swords... is that the normal amazon sword? So I shouldnt get the anubias? I'm pretty sure I have one of those in my tank and it's fine with a lot of light. I'm not quite...

Do I have hard water? I'm pretty sure I do. So this plant would be good? How quickly does it grow? I think it would be good to shade some of the other plants from the light

Yes, I've been talking to k2aqua a lot. All of the plants listed are from them and they recommend all of them. I'm just really confused because people say different things about the same plants and I dont understand what's true and what isnt. I cant seem to find a smaller species, is it bad if...

He doesnt seem to like daphnia. I'm going to stick with bloodworms

I'm worried. I've just got a 200l tank and I have no idea what to plant in it. I want plants that dont need co2, easy and shrimp & snail safe. I've got a list of plants I would really love to own Cryptocoryne Wendtii Cryptocoryne Willisii Cryptocoryne Beckettii Java Moss Ceratophyllum Demersum...

I think we are going to get some daphnia and brine shrimp today. How often should I feed him a week?

I will get frozen brine shrimp and frozen daphnia too, do you recommend any others?

I am definitely not going to rehome him, I will do anything I can to make him happy. He seems happy and he has been fed on frozen bloodworms for five years.

I havent bought one yet but I will if they seem good. What do you feed yours?

I went to Maidenhead Aquatics on the weekend, I should've got some more frozen food. I might get one of those brine shrimp hatcheries. Do I still have to clean their water? What do I feed them and how do I care for them? How often should I feed them to my fish without overpopulating the...

No, I dont think I do. Also I really dont want to feed him squid. What if the fish dont eat the brine shrimp and they just keep breeding in my tank? Also apparently they dont live in salt water which is where squid lives? I'm not sure. I have bloodworms already, I can try to get some brine...

He did live in a 200l, I rehomed him with the 200l and havent managed to set it up yet. Hes currently living in a 70l, wont be for too much longer though. He lives with: 6 neon tetras 3 red phantom tetras 3 rosy barbs 1 platy 5 guppies panda garra 2 shrimp 6 snails I realise these rather a...

So which ones would they be? Do I have to feed him live food or can I stick to frozen food? I've got a whole 'packet' of frozen bloodworms so I definitely have to feed him them. Maybe frozen brine shrimp too? Would any others be good from that list? Also how often should I feed him these foods...

I found some frozen options, do any of these seem good?

Okay, I'm not sure if I want to feed it earthworms or squid... I'll happily do brine shrimp if I can find somewhere to buy them. I can also try frozen plankton, if I can find any

A few months ago, my mums friend had to move and couldnt take her fish. She had 2 platies and 1 guppy. They were in a tiny tank with a small plastic plant. I decided to keep them and they were very happy in a larger tank. I only have my female platy left now. But I was wondering, her bottom lip...

Possibly.. he does seem very happy alone though. I'm also worried they wont have enough algae if theres too many in a new tank. Do you know how long they live?

I dont know where to get brine shrimp from easily.. also what do I keep them in if they're live?
