Well i will do a water change just now and then i will let you all know how i get on. I will check around the tank for that other fish aswell. I maybe already taken it out but i cant remember. Thanks so far.

I didnt notice the fish after i cleaned. I didnt spray polish on the cloth when i cleaned the top, i just wiped it over after polishing other things.

I cleaned around the outside of the tank with polish and then rubbed off the top of the tank just with the cloth, but the lid was obviously closed. I didnt spray the top of the tank.

The fish bloated up a little. They just all went quite white looking. I could hardly recognise the glolite. What would it be? My tests are fine. I last did a water change two days ago. I moved some of the plants around a bit. My hand was in the tank at the time but i cant think of anything...

Ammonia - 0 Nitrite - 0 Nitrate - 10 ish Now thats another 3 died. Only the 2 pearls and a neon left. Need help please!!

I have a 90 litre tank setup with: 3 neon tetras 2 glolite tertras 3 lemon tetras 2 pearl gouramis I went to feed my fish tonight and when i put the food in, only the 2 pearls came to eat, the rest don't. My 2 lemon tetras are just floating in the middle of the tank with thier mouths opening...

I have an air pump for my air stone and i was wondering if it has a non return valve so the water doesn't return into the pump if i turn it off? Stupid question but im not sure. I think we are going to have a power cut and i need some advice. How long will the tank and fish survive for...

I was thinking of breeding Pearl Gouramis and since I don't have another tank I was going to use breeding cages. Are they any good, or has anyone used them? Any tips? When they are clipped on the side, what happens when I want to do a water change and the level goes below the cage?

My male Pearl is chasing my female Pearl around quite eratically. They have never been like this before. They were really calm. I noticed it just now. They wouldn't be breeding shortly would they? And the males tail fin looks like it is frayed a little bit. What could that be? I have a...

Wondered if anyone has had Pearls breeding before and I was wondering how I go about it? I have two Pearls, a male and a female. I have had them for a couple of weeks but I don't know if they will start to breed. I'm not sure how old they are though. I'm quite new to this and I don't know...

The man in the fish shop said that when I add water then he gave me some bacteria biological supplement and water conditioner. Then he said add it in then after a couple of weeks I can add some fish, which I did. The biological supplement keeps down the ammonia and nitrite by adding bacteria...

I have had the tank running for 3 weeks now. So should I get 2 more neons, 2 lemons and 2 glolites or stick to what I have? Sometimes the fish chase each other. I don't know if they are just playing, or if they are fighting. Maybe with bigger groups of them they will be better. The pearls...

Sorry, what does the " mean after the number? How is it calculated?

OK cheers. Just wanted to make sure.

I rinsed out the green filter in old tank water, then I put it back in and turned the filter pump back on some cloudy dirt or something blew out the nozzle into the tank. What is this, and does it always happen? Its just a little bit and then it is clear again. Is it harmful to the fish, or...
