I've got the 80g coming this week, but I'm concerned with the weight on the floor for the 150g unless someone on here can assure me it's OK. I've got a victorian house with a sub floor which I've crawled in to run cables for a rewire. I'd rather not go back down there as it's not nice...about...

I'm not going to ignore people or i wouldn't ask in the first place but I know some people online would have a single betta in a 6ft tank, probably an exaggeration but you get my point. I think I'll put the salvinis in the 80g on their own and the rest in the 150g with a view of rehoming if...

I knew I was going to get a 150g when I first got them and I looked online to see which fish could be tank mates and their tank sizes. The salvini said to be in 75-100g for a pair,the oscar a 75-100g, the green and red terrors were the same. I figured they would be fine in a 150. The parachromis...

I said at the beginning of my post they will be getting moved to an 80g when it comes next week and had time to cycle and then into a 150g in the near future. Or is 150g still not enough? Can go 3ft high and have a 225g but will definitely need to resupport my floor

It's 6ft by 14inches wide by 18inches deep which when I punched it into a calculator came backs as 55g. I used to have 2x 1500l/hr filters in there but as they kept dying on me, i upgraded to and fx6 and kept 1 of them in there as the fx6 doesnt seem to put much oxygen in there whereas that puts...

I currently have a 6ft 55 gallon tank with: 1x oscar (8inch) 1x green terror (7inch) 1x red terror (7/8 inch) 1x male salvini (6/7inch) 1x female salvini (4inch) 1x parachromis loisellei (4inch) 2x L128 Blue Phantom plecos 1x Synodontis nigriventris (3inch) I know they need a bigger tank, I've...

I wondered if it could have been injury but thought it looked more of a tumour . He's paired off with a salvini and guarding the nest so is frequently arguing with the others, I've noticed some the others are missing a scale here or there. I may have to split them up. I do at least a 50% water...

Does anyone know what this is?

Hi, I've noticed a white growth appear on the edge of my convicts Gill. Can anyone identify what's wrong with it and how best to treat please? Thanks in advance
