ha ha, nice one the-wolf. i dont have a pet-co near me but the petsmart across the road isnt bad. there is one a half hour drive away that is of very good standard.
Hi, as far as I'm aware the common pest snail is 100% fine. If you got some out of your LFS and dropped them in the barrel they should breed very quickly. You dont need a heater or bubble machine! If you leave the barrel for 2-3 weeks after then you should have about 30 or more snails. Just drop...

I currently have 2 Blue Rams. One of them look 100% normal. It seems to be keeping a small patch to itself. The other's tail is all together tightly. It colours look slighly faded and when it gets near the normal one, the normal one comes out as like pecks it or sucks it on the head. The weird...
I have 2 Blue Rams and a female Apistogramma. The female is being chase alot by the rams and is now lying at the bottom of the tank. Will this fighting die down or not?
for my advice, dont buy rams in hard water. i had them before. they were fine for a month until the water became hard and then they died in quick sucsesion (spelling).
other apistogrammas are usually better
After you reply to a message i think you should be brought back to the menu. instead i have to repeatedly press back three tyimes till it gets there.
only a thought though!!
Sorry, but I couldn't find the right forum to post this. Please move it to were it should be.
My otos have brown on a yellow background. Recently one of them has a completely yellow head and it seems to be spreading down its body. It doesn't seem affected by this and is continuing to chase the...
Today I found a swordtail/platy fry. I have never had any hybrids before so I have a few questions.
1. Will it be ok?
2. What will it look like and what colour will it be? (The swordtail is green and the platy is orange)
3. Will its lifespan be shortened?
4. Will it have the temperment of a...
my lfs had a big make over and cleaned all their tanks, got new filters and new livestock. it was amazing for 3 weeks. then, because there was noone interested in properly looking after them they are 80% all dead. the last time i asked when they would get new stock in. the guy said on friday. i...
cherry barbs are coulurful and are not like other barbs
bloodfin tetras and rummy nose are very active and colourful tetras
american rams are peaceful and nice
although you said you had tried livebearers i strongly recommend guppys
hatchet fish are class to watch.
lemon danios are very nice...
i have been looking for ages for a centerpiece fish, can you give me ideas. The fish must be compatible with:
7 rummynose tetras
2 Pokeadot loaches
2 types of river goby
1 albino pleco
4 albino cory cats
2 sturbi cory cats
2 marble mollies
1 platy
1 black molly
I will soon have 4 swordtails and...
i would say 3 or 4. they are perfectly fine in a tank that size, in fact they don't really like big tanks (because they get lost!). you can choose from any of the cories for that size of tank but i would say 3 or 4.
what about in a community tank as a center piece fish.
with the following fish:
7 rummy nose tetras
2 pokeadot loaches
4 albino cory cats
3 sturbie
1 albino bristle nose plec
2 goby of some sort
3 mollies
Iwant to ask if it is okay to put a dwarf gourami with rummy nose tetras, pokeadot loach, albino cory cats, sturbi corycats, some gobys of some sort, bristle nose pleco. Thanks :good:
my tank's water hardness is quite high and my blue rams have just dieed but the strange thing is that both of them died at the same time so they might have been fighting. Would you also tell me how to lower my water hardness.THANKS! :good:
My 60 litre is now completely empty apart from the new guppies (6), 3 otos and 4 cories. This is the stocking I was thinking of, the tank is IMO very well filtered.
6 more cories (3 of each)
a type of tetra (6) or more guppies (3)
kulhi loach (prob 2 or 3)
german blue ram (2)
also what is the...
MY 2 CLOWN LOACHES HAVE GOT WHITESPOT. what med do you think is best, or what should i do. they were just recently moved into my 126 litre and seem to be doing ok. i hadn't noticed it before hand, can they get it through stress? the other fish list is in my sig, there are plecs so is a half...
My 10ft tank probably isn't going to go ahead for another 1 or 2 years (I need the cash!). I want to start very early as it is going to be a very major project. It is going to be a 600 gallon. These are the fish I have though about so far:
(I am looking to add fish that are semi-aggresive but...
I'm getting my 10ft tank soon, can someone please estimate how many gallons and litres it is going to hold, I dont have the other dimensions but it is a normal rectangle shape.
one of my albinos did this and then the next day died, i don't know what you can do. you could try a bacterial med.
i feed my corys sinking pellets and they really like live bloodworms
the females are fatter and more rounded than the males
i dont know if they have noses
a well fed cory is...
