Thanks a lot for the advice! :) It's cleared a lot of questions up for me.

I've read the "Whats in your water" pinned topic on this forum but I'm still not totally sure about it. I understand the Gh but I'm a little confused with the Kh. A little help please! ;) ;) ;) Thanks, Andy

Hi, I'm hopefully coming back to fish-keeping (saving some red eyed tetras from school) and have a fluval 3+ filter. The problem is... I have lost the sucker things to attatch it to my aquarium. Where can I purchase one of these, order one from or make some kind of DIY one??? Thanks a...

What is water hardness all about??? Is it good or bad and what effect does it have on the aquarium and fish??? Please can someone explain water hardness in as much detail as poss please! Thanks, Andy ;)

Hi everyone. What are the units in of nitrate, nitrite and ammonia in (test kits). Are they just 0 1 2 3 etc. What is good, bad etc Thanks Andy

yup, the room is light. I've decided that I am going to make a communal tank first of all (I'm new). Then I'll think about bettas, I really do like 'em!!!

Hi, Would a betta be ok in a tank without a light??? (or at least for a while, i.e. a month) Would I be able to see him and his colours ok??? How much is a light and controller??? Thanks, Andy

What do they mean to your fish and what are they?

Argh, been on the begginers questions, whitespot...

Whats ich???

Beautiful! :thumbs:

Can I put them both in the same tank??? Male + female of each (depending on their personality?)

I want some bettas but I'm not sure which tank I have would be best... I want to breed them so would a "24 x "12 x "15 tank be best, or the smaller "15 x "8 x "8 tank be best??? Thanks, Andy.

What are all the different types of betta? i.e crowntail etc. What are the "normal" ones called?

I was thinking of having 1 male and a few females.

The title says it all...

How many bettas could I get in a tank that is 24" x 12" x 15"???

thanks, when you (morragan) said you can have several females as company, do you mean with a male, or just other species in general??? I'm going to have a look at the betta forum now, thanks again, :)

Is one ok in a commercial tank (a commercial being one with lots of fish?)

Hi, I've been intrested in buying a betta for my new tropical tank (no fish in yet, I'm new but have had coldwater for years). Can you get a male & female fish??? Or more than one male/female??? Any other general advice about them would be appreciated. Also (ramdom question lol) How do you...

Oh, Thats sad... :( :( :( I would put one as my signature but I don't know how...

Look at the fish in the tank, the ones "like skittles". Think how many fish must have died to get them... There's only 10%/20% of the origional figure left... If there are 100 fish... There would have been 1000 fish to start. 800/900 would have DIED.

Is dyeing fish legal???

I'm new. I can't get on...

thanks :) How do you change the ph???

Hi, I'm new to this forum and tropical fish. At the moment I have got a goldfish & a tench but I am going to make a tropical tank, here are a few (wot may seem stupid) questions... 1) What are chiclids? 2) Whats the deal with PH? Do some species prefer different acidity/alcaline levels...
