I appreciate yout help alot. Thank you :) I will go and have a look throught the link. Wil that also tell me how to get rid if the algea bloom?

Thanks so much for your help. :) I would show you pictures but my camera has been playing up. If it does get fixed though i'll come and put up some pics. Talking about light, i think i have been having it on for too long about 8 hours. The tank has been set up since the begging of this year. I...

:D Im from Kalgoorlie, so its only a short 4 hour drive for me luckily. :)I haven't been to Albany yet but i am soon. :)

Great idea :good: ! Haha :D Esperance you say :) Might pick a few of those rocks up to next week when i go down. ;) Your right though it is a lovely place, best beaches!

Oh okay. I only wanted to change the ph because our tap water is very strong as it gets sent down to my town and it has alot of different minerals in it, etc. The original ph of it was around 9 and from what i know that's too high for most fish. His stripe is still red, the same as the others...

Thank you very much. :) I'll post some new pics when i get the plants in. :lol:

Its about a 4 Gal tank. Only 5 neon tetras. ph around 6.8 to 7. Im am slowly lowering it over the week as i did a 25% water change with tap water with dechlorination in it. I usually have water on hand that has already been chlorinated and is ready to use but i ran out. I am unaware of the...

Thanks :) I'll have a look at those. :good:I'm just wanting something different in my tank but i just don't know what because im restricted by the size, and also whats compatible with neons. :)

I was checking my 5 neon tetras today and noticed that the smallest of the group had some sort of red half moon sort of shape behind his eye where his gills are. It looks like its not too deep but im worried. Its like a cut but i cannot see it too well. I added some Melafix and a little aquarium...

haha :D I was thinking something small and simple like java fern or moss there not to hard to maintain, are they?

Thanks :) Yeah i have always been disappointed with the size of the tank but im happy that i at least have one ;) The tanks where im from are quite expensive, more than what they should be. :( I actually used to have a betta in here with the neons, but im not sure i will again as i think my...

This is my one and only tank. (hopefully getting a second for b-day ;) I think its about 4g/15L? I will measure it up soon to find out. I got the tank many years ago but it was only used for goldfish when i was 'less' experienced with fish. Right now there are 5 neon tetras in it and i am...

Here is my tank. Its not finished yet, im still awaiting real plants to add and a background. :) There is 5 neon tetras in it. :)
