Can anyone tell me if this is a male or female... Personally i think it's a male but others say its a female... Apologies for the poor picture quality.

Simple question now I have the solar aerators. Given we live in a warm/tropical climate and we have an abundance of live plant life (which I understand aerates during the day due to the sun/temperature), do I leave the aerators on all day or just switch them on in the evening. They have...

It has now become too difficult to count the new borns. A guess would be close on 50. They all seem OK, keeping in quite a tight little group around a healthy plant. But I guess you guys have all seen this before...

TY. I'll leave the male out. There's plenty of plants in the pond. They seem to be mixing well with the junior Guppies. Think I'll leave them there for now.

Ok I understand. I'll amend the water change times. TY

I've ordered some solar aerators see how they go. The retailer advised a water change every month. To be fair we top up the water level maybe twice a week due to evaporation.

Finally took your advice and moved the troublesome male out. That did the trick, 2 days later she's given birth. 18 fry (there may be more, pretty hard to count) hanging out together.... Happy days. The Guppy new borns have done well on their own should I treat the Mollies the same and is it...

It's hot here most days of the year, even in rainy season, Maybe I should price out aerators

New actions stared today. This morning I've noticed that not only the troublesome male but a couple of other males of different species are bumping or, for want of a better term, headbutting her in the area of her vent. This is forcing her to sit on the bottom where the males try to dig into...

Hi, Advice again please. I was told by a retailer that I need aerators in our outdoor ponds. We've set them up with local water plants, water lilies, lotus plants and a couple of others to keep the water clean (and they seem to do a good job) and I thought they also added oxygen into the...

OK TY for the info. The goldfish are very junior at the moment, I'll look at moving them elsewhere. I must add though they do seem to keep to themselves, don't seem to interact or go close with the others. We do have covered overflow on all 3 ponds. It's dry season now so no problem.

Hi, We live in Thailand, climates not a worry, making sure we have shaded areas of the ponds is a priority. Many households have small outdoor fish ponds or small fish species in large planters, it's a good luck thing here. We also have Guppies, Goldfish and Platies (I think) all mixed together...

Hi Can anyone confirm that this is a Dalmation Mollie.. if not what breed is it. We have just started 3 outdoor ponds and have stocked from a local retailer. We have been told we have Mollies, Guppies and basic Goldfish as these should be easy fish to keep to start with. These are our first...
