Can I use any slate as tank decoration? I have some old slate roof tiles I would like to use to make a 'henge' in my tank as it is only planted (albeit pretty heavily) at the moment and I think the fish need somewhere sheltered to hide as the platys seem to be hiding behind the filter. Can I...

What about switching the shark idea to a sword tail? Would these be ok in the tank or do they get too big? I how are they as a solitary fish or should I be looking at a pair or trio? (don't want to fry off them so would be looking for all male or all female and removing / rehoming uneaten fry

I have a 54l tank set up that I want to get to capacity over the next couple of months and was hoping for some suggestions and advice. Currently, I have 1 male and 2 female platy's and 3 ember tetra (and 3 platy fry but one or two of these are going to my friends) I would like a variety of...

Not been in for ages but something fishy in Northwich always used to have frogs. My old cold water ones were from there and Lived for years (in fact they outlived everything else I had)

Thanks folks, I assumed this was the case but didn't want any catastrophes when I chuck a load of water in there. On another related question, I will be moving a 30l aquarium into this one (54l) as the current tank is a horrible hexagonal thing. Do I still need to cycle it or could I put the...

Is it within the realm of possibility then that she may have stalled labour during the water change (large one due to ammonia issue) and restarted a day or two later? I am pretty certain all the fry died or were eaten as there had been no sightings since about 12 hours after the water change and...

I have just picked up a 54g juwel tank for a tropical setup and am wondering if I need anything underneath the tank itself or not. In he past I have always had clearseal oblong tanks and always set them up with a layer of polystyrene underneath them (as per the advice of my local shop) but...

I've got a newly setup aquarium with a trio of platy's and a few glowlight tetras. One of the platy's has dropped some fry although I hadn't realised and there were only 2 left after the last big water change (had a horrific ammonia issue that killed a pair of barbs and one platy). I am aware...
