Hello   I am planning quite a substantial upgrade from my little 30ltr to a Juwel 190ltr corner tank. As its a triangle the sizes are 70cm x 70cm x 120cm perimeter and 60cm height. I will be going with a Sand substrate.   I will be transferring across   5 x Cardinals 1 x Bristlenose plec   I...

I live in Yorkshire UK, I have pets at home nearby but don't tend to use them. I use the local independents. They have what they call zebra snails which I really like. Are they different to nerite zebra snails? Or would they be the same?

Hello everyone   After 3 years running a 10 gallon I've decided to set up a 19litre nano tank. I've cycled it and my Betta Chief is happy in there. I've been asking about nerite snails in my LFS's an none of them have heard of them. Are they really hard to get hold of or are they known as...

Hi guys heres my new mate Chief, think he was a bit of a steal at £3.95       Junior gent

Do you think a could have a honey gourami in there? JG

I've got a 30 litre tank and currently a stocking of 2x male Endlers 2x dwarf African frogs Any ideas on what else I could get to live there? I previously had a Betta in there and could go back to that option, but wondered if anyone else has ideas I could use. Thanks JG

I know very little about killifish? Would they be suitable for that size tank? are there any specific killifish species i should be looking out for? JG

So ive since found a home for Mr Bristle nose, ive now got two options of moving forward Current stocking is 2x Male Endler, 2x green african dwarf frog 1st option is add a Betta and another Endler 2nd get a Honey Gourami and a couple of guppys JG

I currently have a 10 gallon, unfortunately i lost my Betta yesterday. my stocking prior to that was 1 x crowntail betta 2 x true male endler 2x dwarf green aquatic frogs 1 x bristle nose plec this is pretty much fully stocked maybe slightly over but i do clean regularly and my water...

Unfotunately i lost my beloved Betta yesterday, showing no signs of illness in previous days i returned home from work to see him spiralling around the bottom of the tank, with very enlarged eyes. I swiftly called my LFS which is very good and they advised me to get a cure for a bacterial...

thank you Minnnt, a little to tiny to fully enjoy just yet, but im thinking he will be a great addition to my tank in time. JG

pardon my ignorance ive never heard of a L144? what are they? JG

I would say a bristlenose plec is your best bet to clear the algae, how soon after setting up your tank did you put your Otto's in? They tend to like a mature tank, i wouldnt consider putting one in a tank less than 6 months mature even with a fish-less cycle. JG P.s Bristlenose's are great...
