    Endlers Picking On Guppy Hybrid :/

    So i've got a 20 gallon tank which includes 13 endlers and 1 endler-guppy hybrid (all male)and the normal endlers are constantly chasing the hybrid. At first i thought it was just a game but whenever i look in the tank his being chased. Is this normal at all? Are they picking on him because...

    Amano Shrimp Emergency!

    I've put 2 of the shrimp from the 5g in a bucket of freshwater with fake plants (hopefully this will help and at least this means if they die they won't rot and ruin the water for the betta) the ones in the 20g don't seem so bad - just behaving oddly so i've done a water change and crossed my...

    Amano Shrimp Emergency!

    I got some plants in the post today. I rinsed them in a salt solution and then dirty tank water. I put a couple of them in my 5gallon which has 3 amano shrimp and a betta. And some in my 20gallon which has 6 amano shrimp, 2 cherry shrimp and 14 endlers. My amano shrimp in the 5g now look dead...

    Using Old Filter In New Tank?

    So i've just about finished setting up my 20g (minus plants and fish) and i was hoping for some guidance on moving my established filter from my 5g over. My 5 gallon has been set up for 4 months. I have had 3 amano shrimp in there for 3 months and 4 endlers in there since Sunday (22/04) (these...

    Stocking My 20G

    So instead of guppies and danios i'm thinking maybe 10 - 15 male endlers and possibly a few guppies (male) Will these be ok with corys and shrimp? And possibly in the future a ADF?

    Stocking My 20G

    I'll have a look in my LFS's to see what other corys they have :) can anyone suggest a good midwater schooling fish to have instead of danios? Preferably hardy and ok in slighty hard water

    Stocking My 20G

    would this stocking be ok for a 20g tank? and are the species compatable with each other? Would you recommend getting more of any of the species so they're in a larger school? 4 zebra danios and 4 leopard danios (apparently they're pretty much the same species and will 'play' with each other?)...

    Will This Stocking Work?

    I'm not sure if there are any females around where I am :( and I heard the males harassed the females? :/ Bah, may have to pass on the shrimp then, oh wells, I already have them in my 5g anyways, I'm not too bothered about having them in this tank too :)

    Why Did My Betta Die?

    I found my betta dead this morning and would really like to know what might have caused it :( Cycled 5 gallon tank with heater. Sand, driftwood, floating water sprite and moss ball. Only other tank mates are 3 amano shrimp. I've had the betta a week. The last day or 2 he'd been hiding out in...

    Lethargic Betta Not Eating

    He died last night :( He wasn't showing any physical signs apart from looking slightly grey around the head but I couldn't see properly as he was hiding in the watersprite. He'd eaten the pellets when I had given them to him before, I've also given him freezedried blood worms and betta flakes...
