Hi there. Haven't been on in a while - due to having no internet connection! Hope you are all well :) I have got a new aquarium. Measurements are 24"L, 18"H & 12"D. Could anybody tell me the approx. volume please? I have a few questions about the stocking. At the moment, it houses 5 black...

Okay thank you, will give it a go! :)

Hi there I have 3 Trapdoor snails in my 40gal. I am thinking of changing it to an open-top tank. Sounds silly, but will the snails actually climb out of the water and get out of the tank? Thanks

*Edit: Thanks Helterskelter lol!

Is this one working?

I used to have 2 of these in my tank, they were great guys, but got too big :(

:lol:

No-one know? ...:(

Just a quick question.. Ive read that white clouds are a coldwater fish. I have 3 living in my 3gal with one of my betta boys, but I am now going to buy all the betta tanks a heater. So, will this be a problem for the white clouds? Also, I have a new 7gal with 6 WCMMs and I wanted to add 3 male...

No, no filter because my boys seem to hate them :( The water surface is still. Ok I will do a water change and let you know what happens! Thanks :)

Ok so well Torben passed away (from what I assume was old age) I cleaned out his tank and moved Valentine into it. This left me a 3gal with no fishies =[ I didnt go out just to buy a betta, but on Wed I was in Fishy Friends in Basildon & I saw a gorgeous blue and red crowntail, so I bought him...

:( Oh, Im not sure what Im going to do with him then! I cant find anyone that will take him! At the moment he is living in a critter keeper thingy, which obviously isnt fair on him at all!

I am still trying to find my albino ACF a new home since he tried to make a snack out of one of my swordies, but I have near enough given up. If I had the room to buy him a tank for himself, I would have kept him, but I cant. The only thing Im thinking now is that maybe I could move him into...

I was talking to a friend today, who told me that a few years ago he had a fish tank. He told me it was about the length of his arm, and he said it was marine. He said he made it marine by adding coral. He then said that he had lots of "The 'nemo' fish" (clown fish), and then he said, "Oh...

Thank you for all of your name suggestions and nice comments! I have decided to call him Valentine - which is Latin for healthy & strong. :) Mel - I spent ages searching on that site lol! I also just wanted to say, that Torben, my oldest betta boy, has just passed away. I think it must have...

Lovely! :wub:

Sorry to hear about her :(

He's lovely! :wub:

Thank you! Any name ideas? I have been trying to find out what 'Blue' is in Thai - anybody know? :D

My new boy, Cambo, arrived yesterday morning! Thanks to Devon_Charm! Here he is - *Photo credit to Devon_Charm lol, hope you dont mind me using the pic you took!* I have been thinking of other names for him, but can't think of anything that suits him! Anybody have any ideas?

I say green BFHM pair! :D

Ok dw bout it, I cant be bothered to open up the pics and find it again lol, will do it tomorrow and edit the post & make it work! Thanks for looking anyway! :)

What are these? I had two and I had to rehome them because they got too big, but they were my favourite fish :(

Thanks for the replies! Esfa, I took the couple of non-aquatic plants out a few weeks back. I posted that pic because its the only pic I had of the tank lol. Thank you anyway! SJ2K, Fry_Lover & DivisibleByZero, thanks, I think tetras will be the best bet lol! How many ottos could go in...

This isn't really the same, but in our reptile room we have a big tub of water with a tap that we re-fill every night so that it is ready to use for the reptiles the next day. Apparently letting it sit there gets rid of the chlorine (or something like that) as well as bringing it up to room...

...Sorry! Basically in a week or so, my AquaOne will only have my 3 betta girlies in it. I am totally stumped as to what else can go in there with them! Any ideas - just not a sorority! =] <-- This tank!

Wow, tank looks sooo good! :good: The fake grass plants that you said came from Tetra, did you order them online?

I dont want fry tbh lol, that's why I bought all males in the first place. Like I said, they have all been fine together, and I dont want to rehome any more fish than I have to. Thanks for replying!

Thanks for the replies! I will try it and see what happens! Stang, how did you frost it over? Is that a really dumb question lol? :blush:

Yay I got it right lol!

Oops double post! :blush:

Ok thanks Stang! :)

Yeah 22" high, not including lid! :lol:

30 x 12 x 22 What does that work out as? Its probably not 30 at all lol!

Lol ok :D

College had one of these up until yesterday when we found him dead :( he was lovely. Bless.

Thanks for the replies everyone! Lol Alex, not tea! As you know that I cant make a decent cuppa :lol: haha! Im not sure of the dimensions, will post them in a sec, but im 99.9% that its 30 gal! Dont know if its UK or US - don't confuse me! Lol! I will post dimensions in a sec & then that will...

The BNs are only tiny at the moment, got them from Jim566 a lil while ago. The fish in there atm are the 3 swordies, 3 bettas, 4 BNs, 2 corys, 3 platys, and the molly. So the new inhabitants will be 1 more molly, 2 more platys and the 5 danios. I have had no probs whatsoever with the current...

Lol the bettas aren't going anywhere haha! I love this lil fish! :D I didnt buy the molly intentionally, the LFS guy 'mistook' him for a swordtail... :blink:

Sorry, yet another stocking question! :blush: When I have sorted out my 30gal, if its OK I will end up with this stocking - x3 male swordtails x5 platys x4 BNs x2 mollys x3 female bettas x2 corys x5 danios It will be heavily planted but I want to keep the fish simple now. :) Would there...
