yes i bought the plants last week, its a new tank , i had just got my first two fish and they suggested i bought two plants. and as mentioned above one of the mollies gave birth within 24 hours to six babies!! :hyper: Thanks for the advice. i was so confused at where they came from :unsure:

thanks for the answer :rolleyes: im confused what to do with all the babies if they keep breeding any suggestions

Just found a tiny snail in my new tank, where has it come from??? what do i do with it??

Last friday i added my first two fish to my new tank (two mollies). On Saturday morning one had given birth to six babies!. As these are the very first fish i have had i was amazed that we had new babies within 24 hours of buying them.Obviously one of the fish was pregnant when i bought her but...

ok thanks ill go and get some this afternoon. They didnt tell me this in the pet shop!! :angry:

Thanks. Im going to sound really stupid now :blink: but does it mean that i can put some first fish in the tank now that the reading are all correct?? Also i didnt add amonia to the water like it said on the link that idlefingers suggested why was my readings ok if i didnt do this :blush:

Thanks for that. Its really strange but the girl in the pet shop said that the nitrate had to be at 40 on the reading card. Is that an acceptable level?? Thats why i thought my reading was way off what it should be. As for the amonia and nitrite the readings are exactly what they are supposed to...

Its defo the nitrate test and reads at 0ppm. I dont have any fish in the tank because i was told at the pet shop i had to have all the water tests correct before adding them to the tank

Hi im a newbe to tropical fish keeping. I set up my tank two weeks ago and my nitrate reading is 0ppm. Does this mean its too high or to low? Im so confused :unsure: . Please can someone explain what is the best reading and how to obtain it. Ive done a partial water change 4 days ago.
