Hi everyone my names Steven and I live in Broxburn West Lothian.
Now before the flaming begins I am here for help as i know i have several Issues.
I have been reading alot of posts on forum since i joined and now I am ready to ask for help and get reccomendations.
There will be some advice that I will not be willing to take as one fish imparticular IS a member of the family and everything else will have to be arranged around him.
I am looking for members close by to where i live to discuss this hobby with as my wife is complaining about how much i go on about them. LOL.
Right, so first i will post tank and fish info that i have and some questions about fish I don't know name of and will provide some pictures.
Fish Tank
Hagen Fluval Venezia 190 Corner Aquarium.
Fish.
1 x Common Plec. 5" Yes I plan to rehome or move to larger tank.
2 x Bolivian Rams. 2" I call these the two old men because of how they interact. They bother no other fish and no other fish bother them.
11 x Dalmation Mollys. 1 to 2" these were from a lone female that died. I have rehomed 7 of these allready and if anyone local wants some for free please get in touch. Vary in size from 20mm to 40mm.
2 x Black neon Tetras. 1" I have had these from very first tank.
3 x Bala sharks. 3 to 4" Yes i was miss sold these and are currently between 60 and 100mm If anyone can rehome these please get in touch.
1 x Spotted congo puffer. 2" Amazing little guy and IS one of the family. Never bothers any fish and eats any food put in tank. Got him a couple of years ago from someone on a forum and never seen or heard about anyone else having one. Looks like a GSP but has spines visable all over body, albeit tiny.
5 x kuhli Loaches. 2 to 3" Very rarely see any of these.
3 x yellow with black spots. 1" Please can anyone identify?
3 x silver with black, yellow and white tipped fins 1" Please can anyone identify?
I also would like plant in the backgroud identified. It grows like wildfire.
I change rougly between 36 and 48 litres every Sunday and add ferts at same time.
I remove water by Grav Vaccum straight our window. LOL very Easy.
Never had any bad readings although I will admid not to confident in test kits. (feel free anyone that wants to drop by and check/show me)
I plan to remove all the tat from tank (have kids) and do a centre scape so any advice welcome on this also.
Cheers in advance and please go easy on me.
