:nod: Well I am going to groom my dogs, they are sooo much easier than fish, I will look out for you again and maybe my little fish will be okay, will also change to less water change!!!! :-( Thanks, take care Sue xx

:alien: I know 100% water change seemed crazy to me too BUT I read online that some Professor lady did this all the time and as I was a complete novice I copied and I have to say the fish always seemed fine and they always had some food when back in and it was okay!!! I think, when we move, I...

-_- My tank is ( i think!) 25 gallons, its only 16" tall and 13" wide,hexagonally!. I was doing really well for the forst 6 months, bought my fish from a chap that sells them to pet shops as I asked in one shop where to get them and he new the guy who was a couple of doors away, so they were...

Hello My male guppy is alive but laying on one side. he is moving around the top and did have a go at breakfast this-morning but I think this is it. Is there anything I can do, he isn't being harrassed by the others (only two other male guppys) but should I leave him in case he makes it or...

Yes Thank you for that but as I said I am off tomorrow. THe food is sorted out and the question was about the light staying on. Do some people turn their lights on and off or do some of you leave them on constantly? Thanks

:P Hello all I am new here and am hoping someone can give me some simple advice!! :blink: I am off on holiday tomorrow and just realised I haven't left my fish alone before SO do I turn off the main light or leave it on? which is more stressful? I normally turn it off at night as they have...
