Hi. I have tried the stickers that fastened it inside the tank. sounded great until a couple of young fish somehow got behind it! Also tried the sellotape on the edges on the outside of the tank. Quite agree there is no really successful method. Only, once a week I unstick one side and push a...

Hi all Two of my young keyholes have paired and are laying eggs. Trouble is they have caught me off guard as didn't expect this for a while. The tank they are in is 125ltr with an angel, three remaining rosey barbs, penguin and red eye tetra 6 in total, corys, zebra danios 6 very small yet and...

Thank you Trouble is he came with the tank from a private sale! Also two golden loaches in there which I know are trouble. Hope I can persuade LFS to take them or not sure how to humanly get rid of them

Oh great!! How big was he when he became a prob?

Thanks that's really helpful :good:

Oh thanks. how did you fix the image? Realised he was a sucking loach but wondered which one. Cute litle fellow though.

Thank you every one. Have opened photobucket account, copied and pasted img to my post but think it is still wrong. I am missing something obvious :blink:

Magnet algae scrappers are good but big warning. I got a nasty scratch on the glass by not noticing a TINY peace of grit or something had got into one. Now I just use the algae remover pads you can buy and a bit of energy and clean the glass each water change (once a week) . No probs now. For...

Thanks. That would be simpler. Different size but could push in for a while. Thanks for all the help folks :thumbs:

Humm..I floated the new sponges in my other mature tank for 24 hours before assembling the ext. filter but it uses different medai from the juwel one.. The gravel etc. is the original mature stuff so the intake pipe should be dragging bacteria in from that I think. Will do a water change asap...

Hi. I have in the last few days bought a vision 260 ltr tank which was already well cycled and with a very few fish. The tank and factory fitted filter were in a really gungy cond. so decided to buy a fluval 305 external pump (having cleaned the tank thoroughly. ) The overhead pump in the...
