The simple answer, is NO Angles and Guppies do not mix. They require different water, and when the angles pair up, say good by to the guppies

Hello Is it a Female Fish? is it over 6 months old? Females will get fat with eggs about every 10 to 14 days, the larger the fish the fatter it will get. you may never see her lay the eggs, as other fish in the tank will eat them.

Hi May be a silly question, but are your discus doing good in the current water condtios? If the answer is yes, then don't mess with the chemistry of your water. The more you mess with it, the more work you will have to do to keep it at a constant level. Stable condtions are much better than...

Hello Not Altum angles. Hell any shop selling Altum angles for domestic prices, is a shop I would love to visit. Expect to spend 5x's the price of normal angles for tiny altums, and even then you have to know what to look for. Fin ray count etc... What you have are (sorry about my comments...

Two males tend to get on. As there is no female for them to fight over. 3 will be trouble, as the odds are that one will be a different sex. If you know how the sex angels then getting a male is the best option, as a female will only cause problems for the rest of the ocupants of the tank. If...

Hi Depending where you are in the world, there are lots of people who sell SAFE live food. Live food tends to have a higher nutritus level than its frozen counterpart.

Hi IMO a complete waste of time and money. They say that they are easy to use. In reality they are a complete nightmare to keep clean. If you want the feed your fish baby brine shrimp, hatch them out side the aquarium, and feed them when you want to. You get much better control of the ammount...

One way of getting rid of them, is to use alot of salt. You will have to re-setup your tank after.

Hi I raise brine shrimp, on a huge scale. The equipment you need is very limited. Hatching jar, Growing on jar, air supply and food. Nothing fancy, but it does take alot of space to do it.

Great photo. Sadly I give you a 1 in a million chance of getting the fry to any decent size. Pigdeon blood discus make very poor parents. Generly they can not produce the mucus coating, and most breeders use a mixed pair to produce them, or use foster parents. You will also need to increase...

Yes, it has to be newly hatched brine shrimp, if you want great grouth rates from them.

The fry need a high protien food. I feed my angel fish fry on newly hatched brine shrimp for the first 5-6 weeks of their life. They then move on to flake food.

A cloth with a very fine weave, a cotton handkerchief, would be fine.

And now for the answer. First remove the air supply. Allow the egg shells to float to the top, this should take about 10 mins. Next syphon the BBS from the bottom of the bucket, through a peice of cloth. Rinse the bbs (still in the cloth) in fresh water. feed to your fish. Liquid fry will keep...
