they're just shades of red and grey, that isn't what i'd consider "colourful" to be honest things like blues and greens or bright reds and mixtures of many different colours on one fish are what i'd consider colourful, its kind of why i wanted to get guppies because they have multiple bright...

wow so i guess i can't have very colourful fish, that sucks, pearl gouramis, tetra's and others are all rather bland coloured and not that interesting to look at, and as for the size of my tank its 4ft long by 18 inches wide and 18 inches high

yeah i know i didn't mean larger as in huge compared to the guppies just a little bit bigger so its easier to see their colours haha, also i just got a test kit to test the water and the colour chart said my KH is between 40 and 60, and my GH is between 60 and 120 and my PH is 7.0, i'm assuming...

the company is dwrcymru a welsh water provider and i put in my area code and it was coming up as N/A, i purchased one of those.. test stick things? it should be here tomorrow so hopefully i can find out then... can anyone still mention some cool looking fish for me to look up?

my water companies website has no info on the water info in my area, everything says N/A, guess i'll never find any new types of fish then :unsure:

not sure if this should go here? as i'm new and its a beginner question really but, i have a large tank that is cycling at the moment its about 55 UK gallons, about 66 US gallons, its a tropical tank. ANYWAY my question is: what type of fish would be a good display fish for the tank? sorta like...

yeah i'll probably bring it up with them when i go down there next time, either way i love the lil guy he's so cute haha

hey sorry for late reply, but he's in a 15 gallon tank with my betta fish that i've had for a while at the moment while i wait for the larger tank to cycle, the bigger tank is 4ft long by 18 inches wide and 18 inches tall, with a large aqua one aquis 1200 canister filter, he'll be going in that...

thanks, i was really worried for a moment because it didn't look very healthy.

seriously? I was sold him as a gold spotted plec... damnit.... but i'm glad he's fine, i was worried he had some kind of skin condition cos it looked strange, thank you

ok so i've had a betta fish for a while now so i'm pretty sure the tank is fully cycled, amonia is at 0.0 on the test kit i have same with nitrites, PH is 7 to 7.5 its in between in colour scale, but my problem is that i recently bought a gold spotted plec to put in there with him since i've...

no its fine, i've heard of that, I just have never actually seen goldfish get larger than the 5 inch mark even in bigger tanks, don't want em to suffer

sorry, guess i never had one that got bigger than about 4-5 inches when growing up, didn't assume that they would grow much bigger than that, and never would've thought 30 gallons each, that really sucks, i don't want just 2 fish in such a large tank it'd look ridiculous, oh well

ah right well no mollies then, i don't want things nibbling tails its why i didn't go for tetras, and seriously? 2 goldfish in a tank that big? and yeah i know about gourami's not liking other males, i meant a female honey, the typer thing kept messing up when i was trying to write it out,I know...

Hello everyone! I'm nowhere near close to setting up the tank, stand is still being built and needs to be cleaned out of all the sand and stuff, but i'm in the process of trying to find some fish i can put in there, will be keeping it around the 24C temperature mark. so far i'm thinking of...

yeah, no its not a problem i understand that its to give the fish the best life and i want that i'm just a cheap person hahaha that gives me an idea...what about DIY filtration stuff?... like using lava rock instead of ceramic noodles/bioballs maybe? and medium/course sponges...

ah darn, i was hoping i could boil the filter media or something a few times first hahaha, oh well i'll see if i can find anything the right sizes on ebay haha

Hello!, i'm new to the whole fish thin and recently was purchased a large 250L Aquarium ((was second hand)) that had everything with it, however, it was used as a marine tank and it has a large Aqua One Aquis 1200 external canister filter with it with all the media in there already but i was...
