yes...what do you have in the tank and at what size? bala Sharks don't have a rep for eating things. Neons have a rep for dying as they have been line bred to such a degree they have their very own disease http://freshaquarium.about.com/cs/disease/p/neondisease.htm

Hi RTBS are "cute" when small but are nasty pieces of work when older. Your LFS wont give a fig just like the ones selling oscars to people with 10G tanks - they aren't community fish Clowns are great fun when small and are fantastic fish when older but they live a VERY long time and get quite...

Hi How big is the tank? Have you tested for Ammonia, Nitrites and Nitrates? Whats the pH? Try 2x75% watercahnages on successive days Are the remaining fish a pair and bullying the sick one? The gills are pale pink or red? - if they are pale, try adding a strong air pump and make sure your...

Try Google rather than here - the common recommendation seems to be 5/6 G with some recommending 24x12x12 which is about 10G If you have a 3G gross tank remember that the substrate, glass thickness and air space at the top will all reduce the net water volume. I admit I don't have a lot of...

Hi Andy If 24" x 13" x 18"" really was 29G you might have a point 24x13x18 is 24 G US, 20 G UK. Take off an inch for substrate and an inch for airspace and assume 0.2 inch glass you have 20.8 G US about 17G UK I hope that helps - probably best if you check before trying to make someone...

Hi Follow the instructions !! I think on the API kit you shake then read. Some you have to wait 1 minute. Cycling in 2 weeks is unlikely - 4 weeks is the norm but that varies with temperature. I use rotting prawns to cycle my tanks when I cant use filter media from another tank

You know the answer to this already - 6 G minimum.....10 is a nice size

Please explain why it is a good aide to poison snails and let them rot in your tank Lots of water changes and less light will cut algae growth.failing that Clown loach :) Never ever poison snails unless you can pick them out of your tank. Malaysian TS are like an iceberg. If you can see 10 you...

Half fill a bucket and run your hose pipe in to it to get the worst out but....in the end it wont matter too much

Hi Take off the glass thickness, airspace at the top and allowing for some substrate, that tank is close to 20G US, and 17G Imperial. IMPO, Rams or the rainbows, not both. If you are desperate to overcrowd the tank you will need a decent filter and overfilter the tank maybe a 2213/5 Eheim

I have 18 tanks all with Play sand from ToysRus Any play sand will be clean and non toxic - killing kids when u run a toy shop is bad for business

Yep....THR is very expensive. It traps fish poop and is best avoided. Humans like the look of it and the fish suffer

Yes she was.....the lump under the throat is a full egg pouch Did she spit them or eat them??

Not by choice as they are very wary of birds ...... BUT....if there is bullying going on the recipient will jump to escape attention

Yes I keep tangs I have 10 colonies of Trophs each colony has a few other tangs just to keep it varied. What were you trying to sell? Must admit I don't buy off ebay unless I can go look at the fish first. Also I see people selling 6x N. Tretocephalus at .75". #### are you supposed to do with 6...

I have 4 Petricola living with 40 Tropheus and a multitude of troph fry. As yet I haven't seen any fry taken even though they are sharing the same rock crevices. I had 9 fry in the tank for 2 months and they certainly took none now there are scores of them it is harder to tell but as far as I cn...
