The shark had been hanging about on filters for a couple if days i wondered if he had an internal bacteria or egg bound ? The week before i had fed frozen blood worms totally unexpected death which is distressing after loosing the frog

Well the other day when i noticed my red tail shark dead he had already scrubbed him and left entails hanging out making it hard to examine the fish

The worst about them is they pounce on dead fish and eat them

Ive tried scrubbing all ornaments and plastic plants it just grows back

Poor thing i lost my large 6 inch red tail no real problems showing i hope it survives

I generally think the bba does not go easily it is probably a mixture of too bright light and not enough plants over feeding i tried a uv seemed to work until the bulb broke again( about a month ) then it came back with a vengence esha used to work well but its a super strain now ive...

I thought it was meant to be beneficial for plant growth

Water companies dont seem bothered about whether our drinking water is suitable for tropical fish south east water is my company although values are very different

This meant egg bound 6 inch red tailed shark

Can these fish get fish bound if there us no male present just found my piorv6 ibch girl dead and looked like roe in stomache although a few hours old and been munch by other inhabitants

Dont seem to last long although very pretty

Had tried it didnt seem to work i have been using treatment called esa anti algae but it doesnt work now i have probabky gitvtoo bright a buld but its the old type flouresent bulbs very hard to get nowadays

Thankyou for the information

Years ive had silver dollars for ever there is no fighting its a strange tank size not completely sure of gallonage the fish have grown large no doubt it is overstocked now one each of loach and shark plecco huge now 4 silvers

Im sure hes been through the algae treatments too
