Hi everyone! I'm generally a die hard goldfish fan (I have a 59 gallon with 4 currently) but am keen to try out tropicals. At the moment I have a cycled, well established 11 us gallon housing a juvenile black moor goldfish, I am hoping to move Squirt (moor) to the 59 gall in the next week so I...

Thanks guys, your help is really appreciated :) I will keep persevering with him! I have now removed the corys from his tank and did a 50% water change earlier - he's been much perkier since and hasn't hidden under his rocks once! He even came near my hand while I was moving some rocks around...

His tank was cycled prior to him being added so I'm guessing he's just a bit skittish settling in. His tank at the LFS was completely bare and mine has...

Hi everyone, I've just joined as I got my first betta on Sunday :hyper: He's a gorgeous blue/purple little guy - I'm a little worried about him at the moment though. He was the most active betta at my LFS (I was even worried he'd be too hyper!), he just seemed so happy and friendly! Since he...
