My new male plakat is living in my community tank with 3 panda corys, 5 zebra danios and 2 Endlers and an assassin snail, soon to be 2 snails as I am trying to find my snail left in my other tank. He seems to be doing well with them. :)

I was at Chilton aquatics in Durham last week and they were all in pint glasses on top of the tanks. I bought a "girl" from fish alive in Durham a few days ago and its actually a boy. They had a few boys in the tank with the girls. Was really hard to sex them, still never got my girl as ive kept...

I picked up a lovely little fella from my local P@H after telephoning them to request him. :) They were really helpful with me.

Forum Name: MsKhaeli Location: County Durham, United Kingdom Number of Years in Hobby: 16 years (off and on, will explain myself) Well I got my first tank at the age of 10, I kept a black moor and a goldfish in there. Then I got my tropical tank so I had 2 tanks by the time I was 11. When I...

Hiya everyone, I am after an ultra quiet air pump for my 60l aquarium. We have our aquariums in the bedroom and we would like minimal noise. I have a biorb 30l and their pump is fairly quiet and a 60l aquarium in which the pump is going to be used for. I also have a 34 litre Aqua One 380 I will...

Have these been sold?

Surely you have a Pets at Home in Liverpool? I specifically rang my local Pets at Home and asked if they could order me in some Crown tail Bettas and they did. (I'm a little further up north from you though) You can always take a look on AquaBid as I'm pretty sure they deliver to quite alot of...

Great idea. Never even thought of 2 litre pop bottles. :) So it ranges in how many they spawn then, which is good to know. Still considering it, just need to find more space in our tiny house. I'm considering breeding because everywhere I look in pet stores they seem to have VTs in stock...

think i'll be getting dave to do more of the crushing for me. i used the plug from the sink, can't bare to touch em.

@ Shrimply: I really do hate snails though. They freak me out, even when snails and slugs are in my garden, I get freaked. :P @ Salam: Pretty? No way. LOL. You can have them if you like. :P I seriously don't want to start my fishless cycle again, so emptying is a no go. I only ever saw the eggs...

Thank you Salam. :) Last night I picked up 2 moss balls, Eleocharis Acicularis (Dwarf Hairgrass) and some Java Fern attached onto a little peice of wood. Still having issues with snails though, I washed all plants thoroughly last night, took me an hour to make sure they were clean, I removed 1...

They are so sweet. How many all in total did you get? :)

Grey sky with spots of rain. In a way I am glad, been melting in the weigh bridge at work all week (plastic hut with alot of windows in it!!)

Today I heard that Susan Boyle is going to release her book next week..... It's called 50 Shaves a Day :P Someone texted me that joke today lol

I'm winning now I think! :)

Heya, Just noticed you're from my neck of the woods. :) I'm no expert on bikes either but I can try and help, I am on Sunderland Sales N Wants on Facebook and there is a Dunlop mountain bike on there which is brand new hasn't been used going for £75 on there. But looking at the reviews online I...

Love your tanks :)

I'm having the same problem with my new tank too. White algae around the suction cups, cloudiness, it's going through a fishless cycle at the moment (with media from my old tank) it has some plants in it (and maybe a few snails as I found one 2 days ago) It was a tank bought from Pets At Home...

Afternoon, I successfully took back those two corner plants to Pets At Home yesterday evening with my receipt and swapped them for 2 bunches of Elodea Densa. I am thinking of changing my tank around to make it look alot more nicer. So far I only have in cabomba and elodea densa. I am going to...

Yeah I did Google it, Thanks Salam. I'm going to pop up my Pets At Home when I finish work tonight and re do my plants. I dont know what to do with those 2 I am going to Discard, maybe if I can identify the other one I can find out what it is and grow it as intended, think I will keep the...

I think you're right, it looks more like Cabomba than it does Anacharis. I'm not at home at the moment so can't take another picture but from what I remember it does look like Cabomba. I think I will remove the left and the right one and stock with more Cabomba and maybe I can get some Java...

Hello again, Not too sure if this is the correct section on the forum. (There's so many sections!!) I've never really been a one for live plants in my aquarium however for some reason I was talked into buying live plants by my other half. Yeah plants are good for the aquarium and look great...

I've moved it only a little to put the hood back onto the tank and so far there's no buzzing or loud noises. I did read somewhere today that there are a fauly batch of them kicking around because of the motor inside. I hope I'm a lucky one who doesn't come across a noisy one as our tank is in...

Welcome to the forum Ken. I love diving, only done it twice and plan on doing it everytime I go on holiday. I've dived in Mexico and Rhodes. Your photos are absolutely stunning. Amazing shots there. 10x better than our shots!!

Has anyone ever used the Hagen Marina Slim S20 Power Filter before? It came with my new fish tank. I am doing a fishless cycle, using some of my media from my Biorb 30l which currently houses my Betta- DJ. I have read alot of good things about this filter. Some of the things I like about it is...

Well Dave reckons he's even smaller than what I said. So yeah he's small. This photo doesn't do him justice, he has a lot more red in him than he looks here. He's still a shy boy but loving his surroundings. Until he's not so shy, it's hard to get a picture.

Greetings all. Mini DJ (or DJ for short) is a Crown Tail Betta bought (or maybe I should say RESCUED) from Pets at Home in Durham, England. He is about 4.5cms long. So he's still a bit on the small side compared to your average betta. I felt so sorry for him as he was cramped up in a tiny...

Hi all, I'm not sure I can make this easy to read, however I will try, there's so many questions on my mind, so what I will do is make the questions appear in bold. I have seen how wonderful and amazing how Betta breed. Hence why I would love to try it, however there are alot of things on my...

Welcome to the forum :)

He is lovely. :-) I hope to find a nice fella too. It seems I have waited a lifetime for my tank to cycle and now a lifetime to actually find the right little guy. I hope my betta will be worth it.

Thank you. I bet he is a stunner, do you have pictures of him here? :-)

Hello everyone, I am new to the site. Stumbled across you guys while researching orandas years and years ago and forgotten all about you guys. Again I've stumbled across you when researching Betta Splendens - my new friend!! :-) I have had my 30 litre tank on cycle and it's awaiting my new...
