Thanks, that makes sense, think I will leave them as they are - I do like them but probably wouldn’t be my first choice if I could start over. there is wood in for the BN and she has her favourite hiding space. She is probably around 6 now so don’t want to upset her!

Sorry forgot to ask, would that many corys bother the bristlenose pleco?

I think about a year now, the tetras about a year and a half

Ah ok, that’s very interesting, so many sites say 5-6 and they will be happy so I’m glad I asked. I will start looking around for corys and aim for a large group of a couple of species. Maybe I should add a few more rosy barbs as I have 7 of those, so get them to at least 10. Thank you very...

Happy to know the temp is good! I like cherry barbs and most tetras, would any stick with the black neons or would they shoal separately? Or would 6 panda corys be better? How many fish do you think I could add? I don’t want to push it to too many. Thanks

Sorry forgot dimensions, 100x40x55cm

We have soft water, can’t quite remember the number, possibly 7/8 and pH is 7/7-5. I have the temp at 23 and everyone seems happy but I am aware I don’t have much room to play with (the rosy barbs were probably a wrong addition in hindsight but I made the mistake of asking in the shop). Also...

Hi, currently have 200L with: 1x bristlenose pleco 7x rosy Barb 10x black neon tetra 6x Armano shrimp Was hoping to add some more fish but not sure what and if I even have space. Was thinking maybe panda corys or kuhli loach but not sure with the rosys, though they are quite happy just chasing...

I have been testing nitrites, ammonia and nitrates daily 😂 it’s a relatively new set up so trying to make sure it’s right. I’ve checked ph but there’s also the gh and kh I wasn’t sure about

Ah ok, I think I have a test for it in the set I got, I will give it a check out of interest. Thanks

Thanks, our water is moderately soft. I’ll have a look at the other gouramis, do they not carry the virus?

Hi, I could do with some help with stocking my tank please, going round in circles. I have a 200l fluval approx 100x50x44, ph is 7.5, temp 25c. I currently Have 7 black neon tetras and one bristlenose, my husband is dead set on having 2 dwarf gouramis but I am a bit stuck from there. I would...

Thanks, I’ve ready that much over the last few weeks it’s all ends up getting muddled and seeming more complicated that it needs to!

Thanks, yes it does, so I just check those two daily and water change if above zero?

Thanks, I am going to see what I can get out of the filter, it’s such a small one I don’t know if I’ll be able to get just a bit. Hopefully I can get some in the new filter
