Hi guys, I have had a tank cycling which has me confused 🫤. I originally set a new tank up about 3 weeks ago but it has me very confused as I have followed my normal methods. I originally cycled it for 12 days adding a small amount of old tank water daily . It did seem cloudier than normal but...

Hi , I am just starting to explore breeding some guppies more for interested at the minute . I am just wondering if these fish are a particular type ? I have this male which I purchased just because I thought he was unique . Is he any particular type ? Picture isn’t great but he has a very...

Hi Guys, Does anyone keep any of there tropical fish tanks in a garage UK ? I have ran out of space inside the house and have experienced a slight baby boom … one female birthed 62 fry yesterday. I will be selling them in 3/4 months when they grow but it the mean time I thinking of setting up a...

Presuming you mean a breeder box no but I do have a grow out tank (a fully cycles separate tank) and wanted to put the one who was most likely in there instead of the big tank .

Thank you for your help you have been really informative as I wasn’t look for the signs . The yellow had some fry this morning we seem to have 6 fry and about 40 unfertilised eggs , she hasn’t had anymore for the last few hours so will separate her from the fry tank in a few more hours . I...

Thank you for your reply . That’s really helpful is that why she is chasing the other female off? Are there any key signs you woudl look for as there’s mix answers online . Some people say they stop eating, lose colour and become less active just before they drop fry . Do you have any signs you...
