albino fish are ugly, i do not care if they are ludicrously expensive, anyone who buys one needs there head checked.

alright as said before the first step is to cycle the tank, then we can start looking at stocking, what are your water parameters, Gh Kh and that sort of thing, this is crucial for us to be able to give you the best advice on what fish will be ideal for your tank, will the tank be planted? what...

basically what he said is what id do ^^^^:fish:

definitely a room full of show tanks, been there with the breeding stuff, doesn't look nearly as pretty, also that indoor pond idea is brilliant, i can just picture a slow flowing river with angels and cories, maybe a few tetra of some kind, loads of plants on the outside, moss, small reed type...

are they actually attached to the plant or do they move around?

nice, call him big head barry, just for the bants

i wish it was that simple, they dont even know to read properly, let alone look after records. keep in mind that this is in Africa.

that could have been a huge mess:no:

well kinda, i used to have tanks stacked 3 high when i was breading fish, the top ones you needed a ladder to see the substrate, the bottom ones were almost on the floor. absolute nightmare. i definitely dont recommend. its not fun after a while.

im not short as such but my big tank is pretty high up, the top is almost eye level and the thing is half a metre deep. i learned a few things about cleaning it very quickly, no clothes = no wet clothes, swimming shorts work best, place a towl on the floor in front of the tank, stand on the lid...

when i bread cories (bronze) i would remove the adult fish rather than move the eggs, the fry are extremely sensitive to everything, it is best to feed them live shrimp that are about a day old (they die when they get into the fresh water), light just makes it annoyingly worse so have them in a...

Does anyone have a detailed list with pictures and behavioral traits of all the small fish and invetebra that occur in the Freestate (South Africa) particularly in the vreede aria, i'm trying to come up with a list of all the plant and animal species that occur on our farm, im having a difficult...

well i mean it has 10 million + installs so it cant be doing to badly, but then again its not of great importance

Hello. i know its been a while since i have been on here, also forgive me if this is in the wrong place, but im part of several other forums and i can access all of them via tapatalk (app for your phone) yet this forum is not on there, is there a possibility that it can be put on? and i suspect...

Its not completely dark. There is about 10 %light for about an hour or so around feeding. I found it worked better for the cories. Aswell as the angel fish fry Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

It could be caused by the constant almost total darkness that the breeding system had. Maybe lack of light for a couple of 100 generations. Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

So I've been told. I know about the ramshorns. I've had them for many years they came with when I bought my 20 or so breeding tanks. I simply skipped them out of my other tank. Initially they were white. But then when I added a log with a lot of tannins they went a brilliant red. Sent from...

Alright. I'll have to move it then. And then add mosquito fish. And a couple of ramshorns. Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

Hahah lol. My bad. By all I mean algae. I did actually mention it in an earlier post. I'd never want to kill another animal [emoji32] Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

Will go have a look at them. Also pepper cories require a lot more space than 7 gal. And at least a school of 6 preferable 10 or more. Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

Oh is should probably add. It doesn't have to be fish. There is land in the tank(not to much but there is) so frogs and crabs are an option. Also it doesn't have to be heated. Sent from my SM-A305F using Tapatalk

I'll send a pic once the water is all clear. All the sticks have sunk. And plants are in place. I don't want the focus to be on the fish. The fish must be there to eat algae and slime and produce waste for the garden. And yes I should probably have mentioned that I'm not a huge fan of Bettas...

Right to I know I haven't been on here in a while. And I shelved the shrimps in my 10 gallon tank. Partly due to studies. Partly due to the fact that the tank sits on the sun and I had a huge algae problem. So the tank stood for a long time empty. But what I've done now is set it up with a...

+19 on what is said here. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

I would say borrow a couple of dp for a week or so but the shrimp will be decimated. But is there a possibility of adding another fish an option Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Most definitely a male. So yes. You will need a new tank. [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Oooooo. Aahhhhhb Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

I'm really glad you asked. And it basically boils down to the fact that there are the wrong selection of fish in the tank. So the tolerances for some of the fish will always be out. Take for example the gold fish like much colder water than most tetra. So. In by compensating for the temperature...

Hi man. Tanks are looking good. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Hi there. Firstly saving your fry should be currently the least of your worries leave them where they are for now as there are some major issues with your tank. Firstly is your tank cycled.? Secondly the types of fish you have in there require different parameters (water hardness. Ph...

Cool. Thanks for the info. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

How's he doing. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Just for consolation. I also bread angels. Most of my fish had this. Don't stress. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Hi guys. Sorry I've been gone a while. But yeah. Race car. Anyway. I stopped at the lfs today and bam. There they were. They said that they were butterfly fish but I'm not so sure. Any way. What are they. And what can or can't they do well with. What water. What size tank. Etc. Please...

Hi and welcome to the forum. Okay so to start with might I suggest reading up one the section that deals with cycling your tank. This is vitally important to the fishes wellbeing. Also what do you want the end result of this tank to be Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

That's awesome. Sorry about the snail though. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

It's most likely a moldy piece of feed or something. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Hi there and welcome. Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk

Okay so to start with can you please answer these questions. Is his tank cycled. How often do you do water changes. What do you feed him. How big is his tank. Is it heated. Is it planted. Is it filtered. How long has the tank been set up. Oh and welcome to the forum. Sent from my...

Well I was thinking that it could be something psychological or it is looking for oxygen. Or something like that Sent from my SM-G570F using Tapatalk
