Hi, This may sound silly but is it possible to stop your fish breeding. When i go to the LFS should i ask for all females or something? Dan

I'm setting up a new 13(uk)gallon fish tank and just wondering what to put in it! :D Does anyone know of good websites or advice that could help me chuze what to put in it! Sort of like "what eats what" and special needs, live in groups, a hardy variety? etc. i got a book from the library...

Can anyone think of a good tank to get? Around 500-600x200-250x200-300inc.hood I've heard fulval are good (uno or duo deep or something?) I live in England, cheshire, so if anyone knows anywhere local or anywhere onlie with cheapish delivery i would be glad! Dan

whoa! what a cool tank, by he way where did u get it from? (It's a small world, i live in england too!) ;)

Now this may sound really silly for some wise nuts amoung us. What is a fishless / fish cycle. how do i do it? any equipment needed? It is when you should leave the tank for a month until you pu fish in? I've got a new fluval uno 13ish tank, but no fish yet ! An help wouln't go a miss Dan...

Thanks, but what sized tank am i looking at to hold a blue tang and/or clownfish. Where do you get a decent tank and the fish from i live in cheshire in the uk, does any one know anywhere local? Are blue tangs salwater fish, how do you make the water right for them, do you just add salt or is...
