Not all the red has gone and I would not say there are any lumps of anything, but i do have normal tetras in there as well.

Hi, I have had Angel fish for a couple of years, im no expert on them but i would say if the fish is resting on bog wood or an ornament for a couple of hours at a time then there is something not right. I had something very similar that i put down to stress on the fish, the fish was being...

Hi All, I have just seen this i think it may be my problem, all this trouble for me started when i added some Cardinal Tetra's into my tank, has anyone got any more info on this disease, can it pass to another species. Neon Tetra Disease Neon Disease is caused by a parasitic single called...

ok thanks for that, she died some time ago now but are still losing some fish, i lost two small ones today and another one yesterday. Am keeping an eye on the others for any sickness. I just find it quite odd, i have had a very healthy tank for over a year without any infections at all then...

she doesn't look bloated or lying on her side

If my calcs are right the tank should be about 90 litres, i have ten other tetras, one angel, One clown loach and two small catfish. I would be surprised if it is stress and she has been in the tank for ages and the only new change recently would be the introduction of the ten tetra but i have...

Dear all, I noticed that my Siamese Fighter was looking very ill this morning. Half of its body has gone a very pale colour and it looks like the top fin is starting to rot. She is looking very sorry for herself at the moment. Does anyone know what it is. I introduced some cardinal tetras...

Hi guys, just to let you know that he didn't make it through the night. Thanks for the help all the last few hours.

thanks for that, have given the shark some time, it has moved around a bit but always upside down. So it doesn't look too good at the moment

Hi all, please help, i just got home to find that my shark has wedged itself in an opening in an ornament. I tried my best to get the fish out of the whole gently but it must have got itself stuck in there bad. I did get it out but the fish lost a lot of scales and possible damage further...

Hi all, Sorry to be so vague about this but yesterday I happened to find myself at a fish centre some way away from home, they had the usual tropcial selection in there but they had a breed of fish which i have not seen in the shops before. They were marked up on the tank as Texas Cichlid, so...

Hi, does anyone know the minimum tank size (in inches) for a bala? I am quite interested to know exactly how much of a tank is needed to keep these sharks. From what I have read about these fish already they are for the more enthusiastic fish keeper due to the size of the equipment that is...

That's a shame cause I have quite a few Tetra's and one Angel, guess this fish is not for me at the moment. Thanks guys

Hi, can you tell me what is the smallest fish to put in there with a pic, Will i lose my Tetras if I mix them together? Thanks

Hi all, Has anyone got any tips on moving an aquarium from house to house. I currently have a 3ft by 1ft by 1ft tank and have to move it 15 miles up the road. I don't have too many fish but really don’t want anything bad to happen to them in the move. I have never moved a living tank...

Ok thanks for that, don't think i will bother getting one just for a while for what I have seen, do not really want our Tetra's being eaten!

Hello There, I went shopping at my local fish shop and saw a tank full of Pimpictus Catfish. I really liked the look of them but I have not been able to find out too much information about them. Currently I have 1 Angel 2 Cory's 1 Albino Cory 2 Zebra Danio's 5 Neon Tetras 5...

Sorry, just double checked the tank size - it's a 20 gallon tank. We are aware of the growth of our clown loach and sharks, when they get too big for the tank we will do something about it. We are also well aware of the ratio of male to femal guppies/mollies. Well our angel fish is very happy...

It will be a 15 Gallon tank with a few guppies, tetras, one angel fish, a couple of baloon mollies, and a clown loach.

Hi all, I have a one year old silver tip shark which has grown quite well and my girlfriend also has a baby silver tip shark which is quite small in comparison to my one. We are thinking of combing the two tanks together but i can remember seeing a web site that says you can not have more than...

Hi all, Just want to say that my fish finally died yesterday but all the other fish seem ok. Thanks to all those who gave help over the last week, its nice to have help Thanks again

another twist in the tale here, I have two Angel fish in total along with another 9 or so fish from Guppies,Shark and catfish. About an hour ago I check on the condition on the first angel only to find that the second angel was acting just the same, head down on the gravel using the tank side...

Hi just tried the pellets and he is not interested in them at all, didn't even move so I dont think it is looking too good at the moment.

Ok thanks for that, im off to pet shop now to see what i can find in the way of pellets etc. Will let you know how i get on. Thanks

Thanks for that, most useful. Fish is looking quite weak now though but will try to put some dofferent food in but it does not seem to have any appetite to feed or is just to weak to swim to the top. He has been stuck in the same place in the tank for several hours now.

The scales look ok and I have not seen him eating the last day. Have not seen the fish go to the toilet.

Hi all Can someone help me, I have had my angel fish for a year now and last night i found it face down in the gravel looking rather ill. It has not moved around much since then and the one instance I have seen him swim it looked like he was having trouble balancing and swimming on his side...

Hello, One of my female guppies has been looking pregnant for what must be more than 4 weeks now. I have started to notice that the black area at the back is starting to change. I am slightly worried as I had a female Guppy before that seemed to go through exactly the same thing then...

The tank I am getting the filter for will be about 22 Gallons

Hi, I am in the process of starting a new tank. At the moment i have a 7 gallon tank and about to go to a 3ft tank about 22 gallons i think. What sort of filter should i use. Would a Fluval 3 be good enough to handle the job?. Should i also use an under gravel filter as well? Would...

Thanks for that, I have seen two different types, frozen and the normal carton stuff, which would you go for? Im tempted with the frozen thinking that it would be more fresher?

Hi, Tomorrow i am meant to be picking up a 3ft tank from a friend who no longer has any use for it. Luckly the tank is coming free of charge but it has no stand. The cheapest stand I can find at the moment is just under £100 (this is in the uk). Does anyone know of any good websites that will...

Hi, My girlfriend and I are considering moving from Tropics to Marine. However we do not have much experience of Marine tanks. What is the smallest tank you can have Marine fish in? We do not want a big tank due to the money and the fact that we also do not have too much space available...

Hi, I have been around a few fish shops today and I have been wondering whether it is worth feeding my tropics blood worm. I have had them up to a year now and they have been fine on flakes so is it worth the hassle as they seem quite happy. Would there be any benefit? Thanks
