Most baby goldfish/koi are black, or dark brown, appearing black in pond, they dont start to change colour untill they are a little older/bigger. So they will just be the babies from your fish you already have! And yes, the bigger fish will eat them, the only way you can save them is by taking...

Is this a corner tank? or a rectangular tank?

Thanks alot!

Thanks, that great advise! I know the world on the salty side is a tough one, but when you do it all right and put in that extra effort, it is well worth it, it was actually my partner that conviced me to do this, and i wasnt keen at first, but now i have started my research im actually quite...

Thanks everyone, he loves watching the fish with me, and sometimes tries to terrorize them! But if i dont give him enough attention he jumps on top of the tank and stamps around untill i start talking to him and not my fish!

Hi there, In a few months time me and my partner are starting up a small saltwater tank (only a little 50L tank) Now, i used to have a 200L saltwater years and years ago, which was quite successful. Anyway, i am only wanting a small tank, and it is more my Partner who wants this tank but i am...

I got a cracking picture the other day of one of my birds - Antari 'posing' infront of my of my tanks and just wanted to share it with everyone!

That looks like you have found the fish i have! there are 2 more on the list which also look very simular, but im pretty sure i have the ones you put in the second link! The Striped Glass Catfish. And thankfully they only grow to 10cm max, which is fine, (the other 2 grow to 18cm and 27cm, which...

Nah, its definitly not Glass knife fish, i wish i could get a picture of it, but they only come out in the dark and then i cant take a picture! But they are EXACTLY the same shape as a normal glass cat, they are essentially the exact same as a normal one, but slightly larger, is brown at the...

Hi, i resently went to the fish shop to buy a couple of glass cats to go along with the ones i already have in my tank. They told me they didnt have any of the type im looking for but instead had the glass cats that a very simular, but slightly bigger. Can anyone tell me what these are, or...

Mine will eat flakes and tropical fish food, however thats not what i 'offcially' feed them, but they will eat it. I mainly feed them frozen bloodworm and daphnia. But like i say mine will eat basically anything that floating around the tank! But live/frozen dea food is the best for them.

I have 3 glass catfish in one of my tanks, i have had them for agggggges. And this morning i just noticed that one of them is starting to go opaque :angry: :angry: :sick: i have done my water tests and they all seem fine and the other 2 glass cats seems fine. This one is acting fine, doesnt...

Yes, i have black skirt tetras which would gobble them down in a shot, thing is non of them looked fat like they had stuffed themselves, and i have seen what they look like overfed, and they looked perfectly normal. I suspose it is the most logical explaination for it, but the story just doesnt...

Thanks for all the advice everyone! Using your methods of taking the 'filter media' out from the main tank into the filter of the breeder tank, i have put the heavily pregnant female in there on her own just now. It is heavily plant and i have a stocking over the filter so any little babies...

Awesome, good to know, i have been advised otherwise but from an unreliable source, so im glad i know this from someones actual experience. It is just a standard rectangular shape tank.

Hi there, I am soon to be getting a 350L tank (75G) and i am looking for suggestions on fish i can keep in it. I am more looking on fish i can keep together, i am really wanting to get an Elephant nose fish and a black ghost knife fish (which i do realise the BGK will out grow this small tank...

Cool, thanks alot everyone for the help and advice! You know, i did so much (or as much as i could) research and preparation on this before the babies came, and i read all the pinned threads about this, but untill it happens you realise just how unprepared you really are! I think what im going...

Sorry to sound like a dunce, but when you says 'filter media' what exactly do you mean. I think i grasp your concept though, would a simular thing work if i were to put the filter from the fry tank into the main tank for a day or 2, and then put it back in the fry tank? Or am i thinking way off...

Thanks, i had been planning to do maybe a 10/20% water change tomorrow, when they will be 1 week old, so this should be ok? I have a little 30L tank that is cycling at the moment, i am hoping to move them into in the next week or so. She was pregnant when i got her so i really wasnt quite...
