Thanks pal! Really helpful. I’ve had a male before and he was like ready to rumble as soon as I put him in which is what made me think - what should I medicate with? Guessing if I medicate I should take out the carbon in my filter

He’s moved. But on the bottom. Literally got a net to see if I could move him. Went up for air then popped to a different bottom section of the tank. There only 6 tetras in the 100litre tank and him. Does it look like he has fin rot or is he all good?

Hi All, just purchased this male betta fish. Meant to be a half moon dumbo. Lovely color, never seen one like this before. since I purchased him this afternoon. I’ve taken him back to the tank and he just sits at the bottom. Not once in the 4/5 hours has it actually swam. I put some flake in...

Looks like I’ve been getting really bad advise from my fish store. Before I buy new fish I’ve told them everything about the size of the Tank and what’s in it

The water in my area is moderately soft. Sometimes after a water change I’ll need to add a PH booster to get it back to 7

Thanks - what would recommend then? Ideally I wanted a tank of German blue rams and electric blue rams with a few other fish

Thanks for this - I’ve got 3 cobalt dwarf gourami all female. 3 peppered corys which the guy in the shop said they’re better for gravel instead of sand. I’ve got gravel. rams are two male and a female. One male and female have petty much paired up and the other just chills out on his own. Not...

I don’t think so. Never seen it that way before. What do you mean stocking issues? Am I over stocked? They don’t seem to cramped as the majority are small tetra
