Right I've done plenty of research but for the life of me I can't figure a good stocking, I'm new to this so just suggest anything and everything! The tank is 60 x 30 x 40 cm and 65 litres. The tank is moderately planted with a gravel substrate. Temperature is 24 degrees celsius, general water...

I've heard this before about dwarfs being a bit vulnerable to disease. Is there any other "centrepiece" fish you could reccomend. Something with a bit of colour and life maybe :) I try to do plenty of research but I just can't find the perfect setup. (I know I've limited myself with the tank...

I can't tell the difference at all between the harlequin or coppers. But in case they are the coppers is there anything else that could be kept in similar numbers and of similar size? As for the sand, unless I can't find some black sand ill stick with the gravel. I'm a bit of a loser and am not...

I apologise in advance for a stocking question but here goes. I have a 70l tank at 60 cm in length. The tank is moderately planted with gravel substrate. I was thinking of this stocking: 1 dwarf gourami 8 copper rasbora And something for the bottom level of the tank (any suggestions would be...

Thanks very much for all the suggestions guys. Unfortunately I have gravel at the moment so the corys would have to wait :) I will have to look into the fish suggested and get back! Thanks guys!!

The tank is 60 x 30 x 40 (lxdxh) Does the pair have to be a male and female? I originally has 3 otis, but they were NEVER together anyway? are there any other tetras or rasboras that would be suitable as I don't really like neons or cardinals?

Currently have a 70 litre tank with one otocinclus (long story), the tank has been cycled and running for 3 months... Currently I know I really like dwarf grouamis. I was just wondering what would be suitable in such a tank? I would like a fairly colourful schooling fish and anything else...

Ah, I thought I would have to start the cycle over again. Thanks a lot! Cheers for the help!

Thanks for the replies, just had a look online and the things i'm seeing are copepods apparently. I'll stop treating immediately then! About the adding ammonia, I don't know what to do. I want to get more fish eventually but don't want to be in a fish-in cycle. What can people suggest? Also...

I'm new to the forum, so be easy! Got my first fish tank a couple of months ago, carried out a fishless cycle, ammonia and nitrite processing correctly, I have a liquid test kit by the way. Took the plunge and got 5 cardinal tetra and 3 otocinclus cat fish, (tank is a 70l). A week in they got...
