Anyone ,please?

 

[adgieman]

what filtration are you running~? seems to be a lot of bottom dwellers?

 

[maisy12345]

Hi ,it`s a interpet ,internal power filter pf3

I would have more mid level swimmers tbh for the look of your tank.

Hi Marie ,i know, it`s really hard ,i want to make the shoals of corries up ,and i want something mid level ,but the corries and glowlight do swim mid level ,and the dwarf gourami will ,as anybody got any suggestions,for mid level swimmers?

Can anyone advise ,if these are too many fish please?

It may work, I would do nothing less then 50% weekly water changes though with the heavy load you picked. If you are unable to control nitrate the its too many fish. If the tank was well planted with live plants it would likely be fine.

Has both bronze & albino corys can reach 3 inches,maybe just go for 3 of each,they are both the same species,so will shoal & breed without any problems.
Harlequins are good mid shoalers,or smaller tetras.

Thanks harlequin ,i might start off with a lower number to see how they act together,do you keep corries yourself ,as your picture suggests you do, i wonder if you know this my corry has got a white patch on his tail ,what could it be ,and how could you traet it?

 

[myrtle]

I was going to say the same as Harlequins about the bronze and albinos being the same species. I'd go for 3 of each, making a shoal of 6 in total. White patches are often a sign of fin rot. Lots and lots of clean fresh water can work wonders for this or a fin rot medication but be very careful not to overdose as it can wipe out your filter (I know as I did it ).

Thanks everyone for your help ,the white patch on my corries tail has dissappeared since this morning ,since i transferred the fish all to my 110l ,thanks myrtle for your advice too.Myrtle just noticed you`ve got a 28l with 2 african dwarf frogs in ,does this work well,as i`ve got a 28l ,and i`m looking for ideas,are they easy to keep and have you got any pics?

It works well. 28l is the minimum I'd keep them in though. I only have a photo from when it was first set up so the Java fern at the back has filled out a lot and the frogs rest on this so I took the wood out. The frogs are 100% aquatic so don't need platforms, they shoot to the top for a gulp of air and go back down. When they're feeling lazy they'll rest on the plants with their nose poking out of the water. They need the same as fish regarding filtration (low flow) and water changes but feeding is different. They hunt for food by smell so they can't be kept with other bottom feeders or they'll not find the food in time. They should be fed HBH Frog and tadpole bites, other pelleted frog food or broken up Reptomin as their main diet with the occasional treat of bloodworm etc.
Sorry the photo is a bit poor.
