Wow what a complete over reaction. I don’t tend to post much as I’m still quite new to the hobby and can’t offer much yet, but I spent enough time browsing the forums to learn whose opinions to listen to and respect and cass is one of them. By all means disagree but you seem to have completely...

Panda cories are my favourites in my tank. I started with 7 and within a couple of months had more than 30. Hopefully with your 10 you’ll soon see some fry!

I’ve used an auto feeder when I’ve been away for a couple of weeks. I set it to only feed once every 48 hours in order to ensure the water quality didn’t deteriorate too much. Done that twice and haven’t lost a fish while I’ve been away. I only put as much as I know will be needed into the...

I guess suppliers charge what people are willing to pay for them though? Is it really greed or is it just that that’s their value on an open market? That’s obviously assuming there’s decent competition between sellers.

How often do you do water changes?

Please, please, please listen to what everyone in this thread is saying and return the fish and obtain something more suitable to your tanks. I’m sure you’re not deliberately trying to be cruel and want to do the best for the fish in your care but it’s so upsetting to hear what you’re putting...

I ordered all of my initial aquarium stuff from swell. The tank turned up perfect as they used a heavy goods courier. Two other boxes were sent with yodel, the first turned up completely smashed and the second never turned up at all. Swell refunded me for the first and resent the 2nd with dpd...

The one thing that keeps coming up is providing them with sand, and the more I read the more I feel guilty about only having gravel (it’s smooth and has caused no injuries but I know that’s not the point). Anyone got any suggestions about ways to introduce a small amount of sand into a tank...

They’re definitely fun to watch. I’ve only been keeping fish since the end of last year and my community tank included 7 panda cories, who have since multiplied to more than 30. Most people seem to agree they should be kept in bigger groups of their own kind though (5+) and I’d definitely agree...

Servers and critical endpoints should have backups, yes, but the process of restoring all those backups would take time if you’d lost multiple devices. Thankfully the company I work for wasn’t affected but the issue if we had been (which I suspect is the case for many places) is that the fix was...

There's loads of information on this site and Google about reverse osmosis. Probably best you search for it and read through rather than someone copy and pasting it all here for you.

Reverse Osmosis

You've been given an answer. I suppose if you want a literal answer it is no they won't, because they'll never be found in the same water.

I'm still very new to the hobby and found the same thing. There is so much conflicting information out there that its no surprise people make mistakes. I'm learning which sites and people I trust (this forum being one of them), and then ignoring the others.

Yeah I do get you. I'm on my way for a 2 week holiday so my fish are on their own for a bit. I've done plenty of water changes and cleaning, and set the auto feeder up to feed lightly every other day. I believe my stocking level and water parameters when I left will be fine to get them through...
