I have suddenly found the water in my tank has gone cloudy and I don't know what has caused it or how to fix it? Last week I had quite a build up of algae on my glass, which is not necessarily out of normal behaviour as the light is on quite a few hours a day. I went away for a few days and put...

Awesome! Thanks Ted for helping me out. It's a great plant and I'm happy now I know it's OK to have.

These are the plants in question

I need help identifying a plant in my aquarium. I obtained the plant by accident when purchasing others. It was quite small when I planted it, anyway, it grew and grew and grew. Next thing it started regenerating itself by growing smaller versions of itself on its leaves. What it then does...

yeah, it is not marine salt, just normal aquarium salt. one of my other plattys has died now, but i am a father of one now....one little platty has been born and surviving quite well it seems. would the platty that died be the parent of the one that was born?

tank was cycled yes....ammonia 0, nitrites 0, nitrates 10. there was some fin rot with one of the platys which seemed to have spread, and I read on another forum that aquarium salt was good for platys. I read one thing and then get told another...sigh

I recently bought some Plattys, and some Guppies. First time. I've noticed that some of my Plattys tend to sit on the bottom of the tank a lot, almost motionless. Is this normal? In two weeks, I've lost two of the Plattys, and in the past three weeks, I've lost four of my eight Guppies (all...

I have tried to do the feeding less routine as well to see if they come to the tank, but this has proven a waste of time as well. Makes no difference. The harlequins have been in the tank for about 6 months, all other fish are new additions to the tank in the past few weeks. When I got the...

I feed my fish twice a day, which has been increased from once a day recently, as I believe I was under feeding them due to a few fish dying. The tank is reasonably well planted, with a combination of plastic and live plants, but there isn't a lot of hiding space however. I never seem to have...

I have a 2ft aquarium which is about an 80litres, and it has always been a problem for me with the fish always going into a panic when I approach the tank. No matter what I do, whether it is to feed them, do a water change or just even have a look at them, they all seem to panic, race to the...

my tank is a 90 litre tank which is about 2ft across, but a bit taller than normal size.

I have two medium size angel fish, and I'm looking to re-stock my tank and would like to know which are the best fish to join them?

This size of tanks is a 90 litre tank, and has more height than length. Not sure what size this is terms of US sizes. The types of Barbs/Tetras I have are 1 Striped Barb, 2 Colombian Tetras, 2 Serpae Tetras, 4 Rummy Nose Tetras, 1 Cummings Barb, and 1 Pleco. They all get along very well...

I am looking at stocking my fish tank with fish that prefer the top section of the tank. I have currently in my tank some tetras and barbs, but these types seem to only like the bottom half of the tank, which most times makes the tank look slightly empty. Would welcome any suggestions. :)
