  I'm going to try resuming my fert dosing schedule again and hope it makes an improvement. A lot of the affected leaves still look relatively healthy so I'm slightly reluctant on removing them completely but will definetely consider it as a last option if there's no improvement. I've been...

  Ah, actually I used to douse flourish excel and regular flourish but stopped a few months ago as my other plants were growing way too fast without the ferts and so I didn't want them to grow even faster with. So am I right in understanding a lack of nutrients/ferts in the water results in the...

Hey guys, recently had a problem with brown hair algae appearing in my 30 gallon tank.   http://i.imgur.com/QUWqqYY.jpg   It's quite tough to remove and is brown in colour.   Tank parameters are:   0 Nitrite 25 Nitrate 0 Ammonia 7.8 PH   Tank has been running for 7 months now, no CO2 is being...

I'm really not too sure how the other endlers died, the ones I did manage to inspect had no signs of illness or infections however. I did catch a glimpse of a dying endler and it seemed unable to swim and was close to the bottom of the tank struggling. The remaining endlers are swimming fine...

Tank: http://i.imgur.com/CWFdRFQ.jpg   Hiya, I've had my tank up and running for about 6 months now, here are the details:   Nitrites : 0 Nitrates : 25 (water's naturally quite high in nitrates, I use Prime for water changes and Purigen in one of my filters) Ammonia : 0 PH : 7.9 - 8.2   Current...

Betta just died ;_;

Yeah I definetely plan on adding more corys. Things have gotten a bit worse since I last posted and my Betta is having a lot of difficulty staying upright in the water, he kinda just ends up upside down and laying sideways on the ground ;/ I think it's swim bladder related and so I've ordered...

Yeah I just realised that's probably the problem. It's only a 50W heater and after talking to a lot of people that's just not enough. I've since ordered a 200W heater and hopefully that'll fix things up. Thanks for the help guys!

Like one of these right? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spirit-Glass-Fish-Thermometer-Sucker/dp/B0058CWIXC/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1355071864&sr=8-5

Hm, could it be that my tank is bigger so I'd need to crank the temperature up a bit more? I've raised it to about 26-27 and we'll see how that goes. Unfortunately the only one i have is the sticker ones on the side of my old tankt hat i cant take off :/ might go and buy a new one.

I'm using a digital thermometer that you an end in and it reads that. I'm not sure it's accurate though, it's designed for reading fridge temperatures lol. The heater was set to 25 degrees C but I'll try raising it a bit higher.

Oh the heater was set to about 25 degrees but the thermometer read 28, it's one of those ones you stick a metal end in and it gives you a digital reading, although It might not be that accurate because it's a fridge one. I'll try raising the temperature on my heater! (What is the ideal...

Hey guys, recently I moved my Betta and my Bronze Cory from a 8g tank to a 29g tank. I had the filter media from the newer filter (800L/H that i'd be using in my 29g) put in my old tank so it'd grow some bacteria and make the cycle process easier. I now have 3 filters set up in the tank, one...

I'm in the UK I did some research into that, had a feeling it could have been septicemia, I'll take a look into some products that could be used. Also my ill corydora really isnt' eating anything I give it. Is there anything I could possibly do other then carry on with the medications and...

Could you help me out by possibly naming a few brands that would help? Would definitely help to narrow things down.

Bought some melafix, seperated my cory into a hospital tank. Is there anything else I should be doing? Thanks once again~

Hey guys, thanks for the responses. Should I look into buying something like this as a broad spectrum medicine? http://www.petsathome.com/shop/disease-clear-pond-fish-medicine-500ml-by-king-british-31015+ I definetely have made huge improvements in the tank in terms of quality and incase this is...
