70! Wow!
That surprises me, I would have thought a larger tank would be more fragile. I still have the original box it came in when I bought it, so I can use that with bubble wrap.
I can't comprehend how cold -27 is😮 We're usually on fire this time of year😂 I'm more worried about the terrible...
Happy New Year everyone!!
I need to move an established tank to a new house about an hour away from my current house via freeway.
The tank is a 10-ish gallon Aqua One "AquaStyle", and has ornaments and live plants.
The occupants are going to be moved in those plastic bags that you take them...
Hi all,
7 weeks until Christmas!! Yay!! 🎄🎄🎄🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎅🎅🎅
I'm curious to know what you do to maintain your tanks and feed the fish when you go on holidays?
I'm going on January Christmas holidays with the family for three weeks. I've never left the tanks with no one home to feed them for so long...
My cories have bred a a few times. I'd have a batch of about 20 to 30 fry, they would get to around a week old and then suddenly die off. Out of the four batches I've had, only 4 babies have made it to a month old😞
I have asked my LFS if they take fry and they said yes, they quite often take fry from customers. They take all my excess plants when my tanks get too over grown, then I get a discount on stuff 😁
There's a couple other LFS in my town I can ask, and I could offer them to people in local fish...
I feed mine in the morning, otherwise I'll forget lol
I feed the guppies their flake food and while they're busy with that I drop an algae wafer per pleco in different areas of the tank.
Most of the time my bristlenose plecos will jump on the algae wafers right away. Then the guppies clean up...
Hi!
I LOVE plecos, I think they are the coolest looking fish and I really want a massive 6ft tank full of them. But space is limited, so I have a pair of bristlenose plecos, Pip and Penny. Pip has a spectacular full head of bristles and Penny as a few stubby ones around the rim of her head, but...
Thanks for your advice 😊
I believe they are albino palestus as they have the sharp pointed dorsal fin. I keep the tank around 24 degrees Celcius.
Does your winter time mean December to February? I'm Australian so that's our summer time 🙃
Hi,
I have a group of 10 corydoras, 5 albino and 5 peppered.
The albinos spawn after nearly every water change and I have lots of fry growing up in another tank.
The peppers have never spawned, I can tell because the fry are albino.
I think I have 2 female and 3 male peppers, one of the females...
I'm a university student, finished my bachelors degree in science last year. Now I'm working on my honours where I do a piece of individual research under supervision of an academic at the university. My project focuses on quantifying the spread of marine pests through Australia's commercial...
