I have no idea what happened over the weekend I was away. The lights are on a timer set for 6 hours a day. Only my onion anubias had bba on and not much, just on the edges and a few spots on the main part of the leaf but I know what a pain it can be from an outbreak years ago so I took the wood...

I've just gone back through the spreadsheet I keep for my water test results to see what my last measurements were, I don't test the hardness as often as nitrates and ammonia so this is from about a month ago Kh 7 Gh 6 Ph 6.4

The otos are almost 5 years old now, they moved house with me and were in a previous aquarium, so I'm just letting them enjoy the time they have left. They're always out and about though and front and centre at feeding times. The angel was a rescue from a friend who had him for about 6 months...

Thanks all, I may re-think the rainbows. I just wanted something with a bit more colour. My tapwater comes out at 6.8 and the tank sits at around 6.4 but the temperature may be too much for them. I keep it around 28. I do have a circulation pump running, I had a dead spot in flow behind a...

Please ignore the spoons lol, they weigh down the veggies

I was thinking larger bodied tetras, my angel like to play the "if it fits in my mouth I'm eating it, even if I choke" game :rolleyes:

Hi All, New to the forum but I've had aquariums for years. I've currently only got my 90G planted freshwater but I'm working on convincing my other half that we have space for a few others. Looking forward to making some new fishy friends and taking advantage of other people's experience to...

I managed to move house with my 90g in August (and in the whole process only managed to loose one lemon tetra but I did find an extra oto as I was draining down the tank). I've given it a few months to stabilise and make sure that none of the fish were suffering delayed stress, but now I want to...
