I have two tanks, I do a 30 - 40% water change and gravel cleaning on one each weekend, alternating them. So, each one gets cleaned every other weekend.

I've had the betta about four weeks. I've never seen him act agressive toward the neons, and his mouth isn't that big. I don't get it. I had gone from twice a day feedings to just feeding them at night and I thought that all was fine. Should I start feeding them twice a day again? All of...

Ok, I had six neons and now I have five. I can't find the other one anywhere. The only other fish in the tank is a betta. It is a hooded tank, I don't know what could have happened to him/her. No carcasses in the filter, nothing. I did a water change and moved the plant and cave. No sign...

Sorry to hear about your loss. Any thoughts on getting another one? He was cute! :thumbs:

What about a tequila sunrise guppy with the two angels?

Wow, who knew? I had looked on FishProfiles.com and it listed them as compatible. Thanks!

Ok, will two adolescent angel fish and a male betta get along? Someone once told me that her male betta went after the angelfish. She only ever saw the flare and darting at, not actually attacking. This was after they had all been in the tank for two to three weeks. Any ideas?

My neons do the same thing, as well as the guppy. The only fish that come to the surface are my betta and the angels. The two angels are pigs :hyper:, they are always at the top of the tank from the moment they see me enter the room. They will "kiss" my finger if I put it in the tank, and...

Not sure what you have in the UK, but there are also products that I have had success with that help "cycle" your tank. Specifically, I have used a product called Cycle. It might be something to consider since you still have some fish in there. Good luck and keep us posted.

I have two ottos in the tank, but they are still little (I don't think they get very big anyway). I have small algae dots on the front acrylic and on Spongebob (my daughter's tank), and the ottos don't seem to touch it. When I try to scrub the front panel with an acrylic aquarium scrub, it...

What about a couple of ottos?

You'd think someone would invent something better! Same problems here.

Wuvmybetta, you read my mind. The lfs gets in new bettas every Wednesday. She asked me about him today (we had to go see the Wiggles last night so the last thing on her mind was her fish), and I said, I don't know honey, maybe he's hanging out in his cave. After I drop her off at her Dad's...

I just don't understand what I could have done wrong. All of his water readings tested within range. He was doing great the first six weeks. Suddenly late Saturday afternoon he started acting differently and Monday morning he was gone. It may have been that dropsy that someone mentioned. His...

I'm sorry about your loss BettaBoyz. Lost one of my bettas overnight as well.
