About 5 days ago one of my zebra danios started to swim in tight circles, stop and then float to the surface on its back. After about four seconds it would revive and continue to swim. since then it now swims with a slight tilt to one side but appears healthy . Is it suffering or should I...

No wood. How often should you replace the carbon in the filter?

the water in my rio 125 aquarium has a very distinct brown tint. Should I increase the number of water changes which are about 10% every 7 days at the moment or just leave things as they are?

My guppy has been producing fry for the last eight weeks, be prepared for a population explosion

I put my rocks in a bucket and poured on boiling water to sterilise and clean them.

About 6 months ago I lost all my fish,it really does upset you after caring for them for at least 2 years. Don't give up, it's a great hobby and you will soon get back your enthusiasm

No matter how careful you are you will scratch it. I clean the outside with a soft sponge and plain water.

Crikey!!!

My female guppy has been producing young for the last 5 weeks. When will she stop, as my tank is not capable of supporting so many offspring?

plastic and especially silk plants are very good alternatives

my 4 rainbow tetras are virtually motionless at the bottom of the tank. is this normal or are they under stress because of the constant aggressive movement of. some of the more active fish such as the leopard danios

thanks for the drawing, I went to check on my fry straight away.

I've now got at least a dozen guppy fry at various stages of development, at what age do the females become capable of becoming pregnant as I am running out of space to keep them.

If you have no other option than the post, I would advise you to use the special delivery service as it has a guaranteed delivery before 1.30 the following day.

Nothing in the city centre. I would recomend Bardills garden centre just outside Stapleford
