I bought a mixed bunch of Cory's a while back from a local pet store that had been given them from a person who could no longer keep them, in it were 2 Habrosus, one of them has since died leaving 1 poor little sod on his own. I've been round all the local pet stores in Leeds and nowhere has...

I have lost 3 cory's in 4 days and more look ill. I have a 125 litre tank with about 10 cory's and the same guppys and a plec. The water parameters are fine and no other fish have any problems. The problem with the corys started when a pepper cory started being unable to sit still on the...

I've just bought a new tank and want to transfer the internal filter, 2 ornaments, plants and fish from my 60 litre to new 125. What I need to know is... will i be able to simply use new treated water and simply transfer the fish/filter etc into complete new set up? I know I'll have to get...

Water is fine, it's only a 60ltr tank, currently only has 2 convicts and a 1 marble convict. Its got live plants and various rocks as decor, more than enough different areas, they shouldnt be fighting over territory. I'm guessing it's just convicts doing what they do best. They are both...

I have a tank with 2 convicts in and am a little worried about their behaviour. The keep grabbing each others mouths, it almost looks like they are kissing. Does anybody know if this is part of their mating process or is it aggression. It doesnt look aggressive as they are not thrashing...

I recently bought 2 dwarf puffers from my local pet shop. I asked if they would be ok in a community tank (I am a bit of a novice) and was advised this would be fine. However, they seem to be constantly pestering the various different Corys that I have, some look as they they could have had...

water stats - Not got them all to hand, but have had all tests done on water and it's fine tank age - about 4 months size - 100 litre occupants - 4 mollys, gold dotted pleco, 1 other loach, fish age - i've had it a month or so, not sure of exact age, but it was about 3 inch long

I recently had a clown loach die on me, it was only young and I wondered if anyone can shed any light on what could have been the cause. It suddenly started floating vertically and I noticed it had a red patch from under it's throat down to about half way under its belly. Any ideas?

I dont think it is a Leiarius longibarbus as from the pics on the net they have really long whiskers, however mine doesnt at all. Plus it only has one fin on its back, whereas the Leiarius longibarbus looks to have two. Any other takers?

I can't tell if the fish is growing as he has decided to hide in one of my rock features and hasn't come out for 4 days. He does move within the rock but isn't bothered for any of the catfish pellets I put in. He's very unsociable and isn't doing his job of cleaning the tank as I had hoped...

I was told when buying that this was a marmoratus, however I am not sure what sort and cant find anything on the net. DOes anybody know, it has a spotted dorsal fin, with one brown line up the top of the fin so it looks like a spike. Any help would be appreciated...
