Hello Thank you for your replies. We got him from a friend a while ago and he got too big for my tank so I put him in my mums 200l. He is thriving and abt 5 years old now. He is a silvery gold colour with a red vertical shaded stripe at the top of his body and some small vertical black ones...

Hi Can anyone tell me what this tropical fish is please?

Sorry for posting in wrong section. the mobile site is a bit confusing. how about assasin snails? Or shrimp? Happy new year x

Hi there I have a little 20l tank which I keep my baby fish in until they are big enough to fly the nest. Annoying thing is that it's been invaded by snails and the eggs end up clogging my filter up. I have a.pakistani loach in my main tank which scoffs all the snails but think a losch is too...

Ooo that sounds like a good idea. I have a bearded dragon so always have a supply of cucumber in :)

Yep sounds like bacterial bloom. not that dangerous to fish. Has the tank just been set up/new filter/extra fish? Xxx

Hi all. wonder if anyone could advise. I was overrun with little round snails which piggy backed in on the live plants. But then I decided to rescue a pakistani loach (called him Yo-yo) which was all alone in my lsf. He kindly ate all the little round snails. but now I am overrun with pointy...

4 weeks old and they moved out. Was a sad day but you gotta let go sometime! 10 of the juvenile guppies moved to a friends tank a few days ago! They are bigger than endlers now most of them. So chuffed I managed to raise them to this size :D

Last night after it clicked what had happened ( real eureka moment! I swear a lightbulb appeared above my head) I swapped 1 filter cartridge from my main tank, with my problem tank. Main tank has 2 filters with 2 cartridges each so should be fine. Just looked this morning as I've had the light...

I need a reminder to set my reminder at the moment! Can't even remember to get dressed before I get in the car at the moment!

I always remember the filter but not the heater. Even though they are on the same extension lead! It's the insomnia :( now planning to set a reminder on my phone to go off 10 mins after I start a water change!

The second I read that back to myself I figured out what had happened!

Filter is running fine! Heater itself is fine when it's turned on. Unfortunately for some reason when I turn off the heater and filter to do water changes, I keep forgetting to turn it back on :( I honestly don't know how I keep forgetting! I remember to turn the filter on straight away! So...

Can anyone help?

Well they say karma has to balance things out. I haven't done anything bad to anyone so hopefully something really good will happen to me soon! Best put the lottery on!
