    What are these little white organism type things in my gf's gravel?

    Hey, I've just noticed these on my gf's tank, are they harmful or just part of the eco system in the gravel? They're all swimming around and seem to be breeding like crazy by the variety of sizes. Cheers guys Sent from my EML-L09 using Tapatalk

    What are these attached to my filter?

    Thought as much. Was a surprise to come home to all those on their anyway. My tank isn't big enough for one Angel, I only have her because her previous tank was less than half the size of mine and it took a lot of talking to persuade for it to be given to me let alone anywhere else. It wouldn't...

    What are these attached to my filter?

    I was thinking that as I didn't think a single angelfish would spawn without a mate. And the amount of eggs from two fairly young rams, is that possible? It was only my angel fish that was interested in the eggs, the 2 rams were swimming around the tank as usual. The angelfish was still...

    What are these attached to my filter?

    The angelfish seems to be around it a fair bit. I only have it in my tank as it outgrew my gf's tank which was half the size of mine. Wouldn't of chose to house these fish together due to different needs. We thought the angelfish was male [emoji849] Sent from my EML-L09 using Tapatalk

    What are these attached to my filter?

I have 2 electric blue rams, an angel fish and 2 BN plecos which were all introdiced 3 weeks ago at the same time to...

    Cycling and stocking questions

    Glad someone did [emoji23][emoji106] thank you! I've been keeping an eye on my pH quite a bit. And shall take your advice if that problem occurs! Is a pH crash the result of too much Nitrite in the tank due to the bacteria taking too long to process it? On the bright side if that happens, at...

    Cycling and stocking questions

    Ahhh I see! So maybe a tank of a single species would do me best. I love the way the Rams are, could watch them for hours on end. If a BN is out of the question, do you know if I could have anything else with the rams to combat algae? Also if I were to go with just Rams, what numbers should I...

    Cycling and stocking questions

    Thank you for the suggestions! I do like the look of the hatchet fish for the top of the tank. Would you say a pair of blue rams, a bn pleco and a pair of hatchets could go well together? I have bogwood currently soaking ready for the tank, and hopefully some easy care plants in the near future...

    Fishless Cycling of a 125L Tank

    Water change pump

    Hello! I'm after some recommendations for a pump to use for water changes. I've already got a basic syphon to clean the gravel and remove water from the tank but need something to fill it back up. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatful, cheers! Sent from my EML-L09 using Tapatalk

    Fishless Cycling of a 125L Tank

    Thanks for the response, Colin. I've got the aeration and turbulence going at it's most. I forgot to mention that the pH test I posted was prior to adding the 1st Ammonia dose. Afterwards I tested it was around pH8 I wanted to try and steer clear from altering my pH levels and work with what...

    Fishless Cycling of a 125L Tank

    Hello all! I'm in the process of cycling my tank (fishless) And just wanted to check I'm doing everything okay and that I just need a little more patience. I've been following the tank cycle guide which is posted in here. I've only got water, natural gravel, filter and a heater in the tank, I'm...
