The tank dimensions are H43cm x W39cm x D33. I also prefer smaller fish, so would prefer the tetras

Thanks for the reply. It won't be too busy but I'll make sure there are plenty of hiding places

I'm getting a small tank (48 litres)for my hallway. Once it's cycled I want to get either a couple of platies and some neon tetras or some black phantom tetras and neon tetras. If I go with the platies, how many neons will I be able to get away with. If I go for black phantoms and neons, how...

I'm re-stocking my small 19 litre tank. At the moment I have 6 Glowlight tetras. I don't want to overstock it but would like to add a little variety. I thinking about adding a betta or a dwarf gourami (though I think the tank would be too small for one?). Alternatively I might add a 2 or 3...

He stayed as he was for about a week but didn't show any signs of improvemnt. He also developed sores on his face so I thought the best thing for him was to put him out of his misery, which was difficult to bring myself to do. How is your fish doing?

Thanks. The tank has been set up about 11 months. The other fish in the tank are 6 Harlequin Rasboras, 3 Platies and 1 Oto. None of them are showing any signs of illness. The DG has been in the tank about 2 months. Will need to check the parameters later. Normally do approx 20% water changes...

Thanks for the advice. I guess I'll leave adding any more fish. I'll just have to get a new tank (I have two already). I've been well and truly bitten by the fish keeping bug.

Hi I have a 10 gallon tank, which I've had up an running for about 2 months now. I currently have 5 platies (all male) and 6 harlequin rasboras. I'm thinking about adding some more fish but don't want to overstock. I'd like to get some small cory catfish for the bottom of the tank, I like the...

Thanks for the advice. Hopefully getting the Platys on Saturday. I tested the ph a couple of days ago and it was 7.5 so should be ok.

Hi all. I recently bought a 10 gallon tank and am just about ready to add the fish, subject to water tests. I have thought about initially just getting 3 platies (or should that be platys?). I don't want them to breed, so would 3 males or 3 females get on ok together? After a week or go I then...
