Hi Everyone

[KatieKroft]

Hi everyone! I'm new to fish keeping. My name is Katie and I'm 43 and live in West London. I used to be a teacher but I'm hoping to train as a bus driver soon.

I already have a Juwel 50 litre community tank and a 30 litre Biorb and I just got a new tank today. It is a 94 litre River Reef and I'm really pleased with it. It has an elite Stingray filter which I assume must be doing the job of aeration too as there is no separate air pump. Would I be right in assuming this?

In my Juwel tank I have a couple of Tetra's and I just noticed recently that there are lots of baby Tetra's now swimming around!

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me!

Hi and welcome

If the stingray is agitating the surface then yes it is creating air in the water.

Pop some pics of your other tanks im sure people would be interested in seeing them

Did you remember to cycle your tank?

It's a 94l litre tank. It was already cycled as I bought it second hand. I kept 80% of the water and brought it home in buckets. I hope this was the right thing to do!

I have some questions about my white sailfin molly's , i have 4 of them 2 males 2 females and now one of the females has an extremley large belly it has been like this for about 2-3 weeks i dont really know if molly's have the same signs that they are pregnant as other fish like gravid spots or that . So my question is are there ways to tell if its defanetley pregnant and should i move her to a seperate tank or keep net so that she will give birth ? Thanks
