hey colin_T, just read your additional post. 29C is what I've always had, will lower temp if that's advisable. Should I lower it slowly, as in 1 degree at a time? Just tried feeding some small amount of flakes - hadn't read your post before then. The only one who went for them was the big...

I'm in Australia - not so sure if either of those products are available here. I used to have one called Stress Zyme that I'd add each week, now I've got one called 'Cycle' which I added the other day. if it's not white spot, then I guess I should stop adding the protozin, just with the while...

this rainbow shark deteorated over the last hour and was lying upside down on the bottom.. had to be put down :( this one is lying on the bottom now but can hopefully be saved

Hi all, I've got big problems in my 30 Gallon tank. Temp: 29C PH: 7.0 Readings after 15% water change Nitrite: 0.05 - 0.1 Nitrate: 0.25 ppm The only change in the last 3 months is that I've put in some new plants, and started using fertilizer and iron tablets to try and keep them alive...

Hey that is a co-incidence, however there's no soccer allowed in my tank! My fish are strictly Union fans :good: Will let you know how she goes with the Protozin course. She ate a few blood worms last night, not really taking to flakes though. Seems interested and just sort of stalks them. If...

I've got a med called Protozin, but it doesn't list it's ingredients. Is made by Waterlife Research Ind Ltd in the UK.. Just started treating her with this, hope she pulls through

G'Day and thanks for the advice. Unfortunately she doesn't seem to like peas (can't really blame her either).. just lets them sit on the bottom! Any ways to encourage her to eat them?

ok.. water is 28.1C (83 in the old scale) :good: PH around 7.2 Nitrites: *takes 5 mins, will edit* Nitrates: *will do after Nitrites*( I've done 2 x 1/5th water changes in the last week

Ok, Pics are uploaded, higher res ones are here Just testing water quality now, will post results

Hi there, I'm after some advice on my poor sick Angelfish. Previously she's been the boss in the tank, but the last week or so I've noticed she's barely eating at all. Sometimes she has a micro flake then often spits it out. There's a large bowl just above her bum, and I haven't seen her poo...

Nah my guy is still going, though I've seperated him out today. I got a new tank about 2 months ago, though I've had these fish in a different (smalller) tank for about 12 months. The tank is 250 Litres. There's 2 Angels, 2 blue rams, 1 rainbow, 4 tetra's, 2 barbs and 2 clown loach's in the...

Hello all, I have similar symptoms with my Blue Ram (the mate of the one pictured in my Avatar). About three days ago I though he was getting ready to breed again, cause he was bossing round the bigger fish... but since he just hasn't been himself. He's been sitting on the bottom at the back...

Hi There, my tap water is too alkaline and till now i've been using the 'Sodium Bicarbonate' that came with the PH kit to stabilise it, however this has now run out. I've got some Baking Powder, the ingredients are 'Rice Flour, Sodium Acid Phosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate'. Can I use this...

Hi again, thanks for the welcome. Fortunately the bucket is pretty tall, and he's been doing not too badly in there... I've put the semi-transparent bucker up against the tank and he sits against the common wall pining while his mate sits on in the main tank checking on him! Poor little fella...
