Hi everyone I need some advice. So for a week the corys were "Playing together" and now I never see them, they are hardly out. They used to always be out and about, but they they started having fun and after a week of this they just now hide together all day. Whats up with them? I only have 2...

OK will do, I guess if im not going to put them in a breeder box then is doesn't really matter anyway. And other people have told me they lay of leaves and the glass anyway. Thanks for advice.

No im not, shame, but im only just getting used to having fish hahaha not starting with breeding boxes etc YET 😅

Hi everyone. I am pretty sure my 2 sterbai corys are mating. They are normally so lazy and laid back but all of a sudden 1 is chasing/following the other one around, they are both hoovering off the ground together and 1 seems to be nudging the other ones belly. I really wanted to clean the...

Will do Thank you, thats reassuring. Sorry for jumping in and hijacking your post. I've learnt rather than posting a post its best to search first as 90% of the time there is already a thread done for it xx

Id never heard of it till yesterday, I'm fairly new to the fish game and I only found out about it as I was looking up something wrong with one of my Cory. Similar thing, although I don't see any rubbing up against anything. He just was so small compared to the other 2 I got all at the same...

Love the term "self serving little buttholes"

Hahahaha 100% I dont understand people who don't like them. My snails and cory clean the tank more than my pleco but hes the whole reason I got the tank, love them. They get a bad name, like you said LFS and old wives tales about eating algae so people get them and are the disappointed or they...

Hes sitting on the bug bite so no one else can get it....he hasn't swam away with one yet though...thats funny. I'm glad he doesn't swim off with it, only time I see him is when I'm feeding him haha he's such a user Hes not interested in my algae tabs, he's carnivorous so just swims past them

Here is a picture of them both together from tonight's feeding time. Plec munching on bug bites and Cory on a garlic and mealworm tab...they know as soon as I lift lid up or jagger smells the garlic and he comes straight out when I put them in for dinner.

I have 2 of those too haha 😄 heres a better picture of him, he's fast though so its hard to get a picture....when he eventually shows his face I dont like to pester him with trying to get a picture

I have 5 zebra snails, they are lovely and keep the tank amazingly clean from algae. But yes...im just learning about the eggs....doesn't really bother me to much, im just glad they don't hatch hahah

Oh no.....thats sad to hear. Why didn't they last? I've had mine a few months, now I'm getting worried.

My king tiger aka jagger is settling in nicely, I now even sometimes see him in the early evening, ive turned the light down to blue at 7 before it goes off at 9

Hi, great minds. Yes I altered my tank lights when I got him, so now it turns to blue lights around 7pm (I have fluval flex so I can program the lights with my phone to come on/off and change colour the same time every day) I dont clean my glass either, my snails do that
