    endlers and water hardness?

    Good info. I've never kept Pencil fish due to water hardness but have since found out that the Beckfordi will be OK in my water. PH 7.4. GH.8.9 Couple of questions if I may ? I read that they would make good dither fish. Do you think they will be OK with a pair of apistogrammas? Do they have a...

    New to live plants

    If you have inert subtrate and don't fertilise your plants how can you expect plants to thrive ? An established tank that has been running for a long time will accumulate mulm for plants to feed off especially root feeders granted. Some plants are column feeders so adding ferts is beneficial...

    Algae ID and Help Please

    Pets at home often do amano shrimp and at a good price. I have Borelli in with cherry shrimp and amanos. Most of the time they don't bother the cherry shrimp. They are certainly not interested in amanos. No chance a pea puffer will take down a good size amano.

    Choosing a Centrepiece Fish

    I don't agree with that. If I don't like my setup or fish I make changes. I love the hobby to much to lack motivation. Its a learning curve. It's ok for him to not like fish because he can take them back without issue. Many people don't have that luxury as fish shops rarely accept fish from...

    New scape

    Don't be hard on yourself. It isn't as easy as it looks. The more you Scape the better you become. I always prefer real feedback. Instead of people just being nice. This way you get better. That's my opinion anyway.

    New scape

    I personally think the rock pile is to centralised and no real coordination with the rock markings so the rocks look placed instead of a natural look. I don't want to sound to critical but it's what my eyes first see.

    Black Hair Algae and Unknown

    You can dip wood/rocks in very hot water for a few seconds. Kills algae instantly. I much prefer this method above anything else. It will kill plants if attached.

    Apistogramma

    This is happening to me, My male Borellii is aggressive to both females even know I can see a breeding dress in one. He chases both away. Both females appear to ok with eachother. Bits of chasing but nothing like what the male does to them. It's a 70l Dennerle. I took out the 4 endlers to see...
