Hello all again. My 35 gallon has been running for about 10 days now, my plants are starting to grow as well. I've also used conditioner and bio support.

Hi everybody! I got a new 125g aquarium to move my goldfish to. After 3 months of doing a Fishless Cycle, my tank was finally ready and I added 1 of my 3 goldfish (the largest of the the three). That was about a week ago. The two smaller goldfish are still waiting in the 45 gallon tank to join...

This is a long story so bare with me. I originally owned a small square tank with two equally small fish a minnow and a small orange no longer than 2 inches. I’d had them for about a year and the other day I noticed one had disappeared, this is when I saw that the minnow was dead under the...

Hi all, I've recently got back into fish keeping after a couple of years. I've recently upgraded to a 240 litre cycled tank, which currently houses 3 angel fish and 10 tetras. I was thinking of getting more fish for the tank and was considering a shoal of corydoras. However I was wondering...

Hi all.   I'm looking to add a dwarf gourami to my relatively new tank. I read an article on here that strongly recommended you quarantine them first as they are prone to disease. I assume this involves buying and cycling a second tank? How long should new fish be quarantined for? And is it...
