Can anyone Id the coral in the last pic above? It seems to if really well with no special treatment

Hi, haven't got any new plants just did some remodelling . Tried to use some of the space but keeping the path idea, what do you think?

Thanks for the advice, is there a a moss that is easy to grow?

Thanks for the comments , I might leave it then. Still not sure though

Finally worked out how to get photos of my phone

It's a sand base

Need some advice of what to plant to fill a Bare part of my tank. The back of the tank has a bare part . I want something that is hardy and strong to fill it. I have no co2 and just basic lights but have had success with plants. Trying to post a photo but can't work it out yet

they prefer a much colder tank im afraid but very nice

a small group of maybe 5 rummy nose would be ok, its certainly a possibility, any other suggestions? i am considering maybe ditching the red idea and getting some hatchlets, hmmm a dilema

I have a 40 gallon long tank with 3 bosemani 6 neon rainbow fish as well as some bottom feeders, i have lots of colour in the tank but nothing red, can anyone suggest a peaceful red fish that would go with my stock and i ahve already ruled out red rainbows as i dont really have room for another...

thanks the dd seems to be winning, its also much larger right? ok so firstly whats a cheto? and what media does the dd come with (if any) and what would you recomend putting in each chamber if the third has a skimmer in it

im looking into getting a nano marine tank and have narrowed it down to these (due to size and cost) what are the pros and cons of these, the dd seems not to have a skimmer, but i have heard the orcas one isnt very good, is it possible to fit a small cheap one on the dd ? anything will be...

could 3 dancing shrimp live with one cleaner shrimp and one fire shrimp in a nano?

i dont think so it was a bit darker with smaller fins, it was on the bottom not swimming much

i saw a strange looking marine fish in a small tank with some dancing shrimp in my lfs today, it was about an inch long and had a greenish body with purple and yellow rings and spots , any ideas on a name so i can google it

yeah, not really what im looking for i think

a bit boring really, what about rainbows or something with a bit of personality

hi i have a 40g rectangle tank with good filtration that will be soon be empty and i want a planted tank with a variety of shrimps big and small and wanted to have a colourfull comunity to go with them that wont hurt them and they will come out of hiding withany suggestions.

i like the d & d nano 90 id this any good? should be a good size to hold 2 clown 2 neon goby 1 purple firefish 2 cleaner shrimp

Right well think i wil;l keep it simple and go with 2 clown 2 neon goby 1 purple firefish 2 cleaner shrimp Can anyone suggest a good 60-80 l easy to set up tank that looks modern and stylish? ps . Do they all have solid backs?

They might be the best for keeping lots of ish and you cant keep coral in it, but i doubt these are aimed at proper die hard fish fans, they are for modern home and i think look quite good as long as they are kept simple. I don't think the majority of members would have one but they have the...

i got my mum a 30l biorb and has guppies in it with and some simple plants grow quite well in it with the LR type stuff in the bootom and no you cant replace it as it holds the benificial bacteria in it

thought as much thanks

Your right the fire shrimp are nice, but the cleaner shrimp are good as part of a clean up crew and more readily avaliable might go with 2 clown 2 neon goby 1 purple firefish 2 cleaner shrimp Is a chocolate chip starfish a good idea for the size tank?

hi, my mum has got 4 male guppies + some other small fish in a tank about 2 ft long about 15-20 gallons, if she wanted to add females what would be the right amount?

thats a real shame cos they are the most colurful small fish i have ever seen, is there anything i could replace it with except another clown? also what about a small starfish as well?

done a bit more research now , with that in mind i might go for 2 common clown 1 royal grammer 2 neon goby 2 cleaner shrimp Would this work?

Hi, i was thinking about starting a small nano tank a 70-80l cube as this is all i can fit in due to my various fw tanks. i was gonna keep it simple and stocking small. no coral just live rock. i was thinking 2 common clown 1 royal grammer 1 other small fish 1 shrimp would this work? if so what...

yep it sure is thanks

whilst doing some gardening i found some redish eggs on the underside of my tank hood near the lights, it is a good few inches above the water line how did they get there or could they be something other than eggs?

So can you have too much filtration, in my 30 gallon i have a fluval 205 external filter, the juwel one it came with, a small internal one recomended for a 10-20 gallon tank and a small buble filter , can you actually have too much filtration. its a comunity tank by the way

if you can get your hands on limestone i heard that can raise ph and you can include it into your tank as hiding places, i agree with PRW1988 plants make great hiding places but make sure you get hardy plants and put rocks at the stems so the fish dont dig them up

Just keep going with the rocks build it up a bit but i would also use a dark cave that only opens at the front which would be good for shy fish as well as for breeding , you can use up turned flower pots but this doesnt give the natural look i think (by looking at your pictures) your after.Do...

Thanks a lot im sure he will appreciate your help when i send him the link to the thread later i think he is fine with just the 6 at the moment although he said he did want a couple of red coloured cichlids if he could find them.

yeah i told him most of what you just said, sorry not all of the cichlids he has needed ids as he got 2 from another shop the male Labidochromis caeruleus and the male Cynotilapia afra which he knew what they are it was just 4 juves bought from lfs that just had mbuna cichlid on the tank (6...

I think there is 3 Pseudotropheus sp. "Acei" 2 Metriaclima lombardoi in the pictures as well as 1 male Labidochromis caeruleus 1 male Cynotilapia afra. There is also some other fish (used to be a community tank) a red tail shark 2 yo yo loachs a common plec 2 false flying foxs 2 small cories and...

here are some more photos, bear in mind they might not all be different species some might be the same 1 2 3 4 5 6

I know they are a bit blurry but can't somebody help, our (mine n my cousins) Lfs just has them labeled as mbuna or zebra cichlids with no scientific names ,anyone got any ideas to what they are?

Can someone please give me the scientific names for these juevenilles please (not from my tank from my cousins) 1 2 3

I have read that overstocking a malawi tank is a good idea to stop aggression ,so that must mean that with good filtration an inch for a gallon wont apply so what is the overstocking guide for inches and gallons
