    Small Fishtank Coffee Table For School Project......

    With this being an AS project I assume he'll make the equipment at school maybe take the table home then but a few of his fish in it take some pics then submit it. I don't think he plans to take it home and use it. I certainly didn't with my AS stuff and neither did anyone else. I'll try dig...

    Diy Background

    I've used this stuff in my tank to create filter covers and have never had any problems with it. People say you can never be too careful but I think a completely sterile environment is damaging. Like I say I followed a similar procedure to yourself and my fish are fine, except for a few that...

    Do Fish Bite Back?

    Yeah. My guppies always try to eat me whenever I'm doing any maintenance, bless em. No need to worry unless they draw blood, but then again I wouldn't worry too much.

    Sorry, I said 'She' as calling your plec 'it' didn't seem right. :) Fingers crossed she'll be ok.

    Plec Very Still, Im Worried

    Is she bloated/swollen at all? Is it returning to the same area over and over? Pleco's pass a lot of waste as im sure you know. Is she passing any waste at all? I must say MY plecos tend to hide in their caves whenever I venture into the tank. They do however have somewhat poorer eye sight that...

    My New Pleco

    Congrats on your new purchase. I feed my plec everyother night. I put about 3-4 algae pellets in otherwise the guppies go mad over them. But just find a suitable routine that works for you. Like has already been said, if he looks happy then I wouldn't go changing things. Bit's of pipe provide...

    Which Fish Are "messy"?

    I'll second that. Mine sh*ts for Britain. Minnows in my experience don't tend to produce much waste

    Test Kits

    My personal opinion is that you can create a too 'perfect' environment. If your water is too clean and something does get into the water, your fish are too used to this 'perfection' they start to drop like flies. I can understand test kits for the use of highly specialised breeds of fish that...

    Why Are My Fish............

    I'd say one is essential. The warmer the water the less Oxgyen can dissolve into it. So It's always worth having one.

    Ok, I guess you're right. The more I think about it, it seems like a bad idea. There are 2 rooted plants in there and the whole thing would be too traumatic for the little blighters. I'm just using it as a starting piece while I get the hang of fish keeping again.

    Experience With Pet Store

    The Pets at Home here is disgusting. I bought 2 Mollies from them and 6 Neon's once. I live about a 10 minute drive away. Upon getting home one of the Mollies was dead and 3 Neon's - And I'm not in the slightest surprised from the way they attempted to catch them; crushing them with nets and...

    Hi, I'm new here so sorry in advance for any daftnesss. I have bought a (well I'm pretty sure it's a) FLUVAL UNO TANK KIT 600 I used to keep fish when I was younger and I decided to start up again. The tank is fine and so are the fellows that live there. However I don't particularly like the...
