Hi, fairly new to the hobby, currently running 4 aquariums, 2 x Eheim Vivaline 240ltr (Tropical & Fancy Goldfish), 100ltr Supafish quarantine tank and lastly 25ltr Betta tank. The tank on the left is the new home for the Tropical fish, cycle completed, 4+600 Eheim professional filter, sponge filter and a Eheim Bioball 200, just to assist the cycle,

Welcome to the forum! Your tanks are bautiful! You should enter them in our tank of the month's contest!
 
Hi and welcome to the forum :)

You need to move the airstone away from the sword plant in the goldfish tank. The bubbles upset the plant.

You need some floating plants in the tanks to shade the fish and reduce the light reflecting off the bottom. The goldfish also need plant matter in their diet and duckweed is regularly eaten by them.

Apart from that the tanks look really nice :)

Thanks for the advice on the goldfish, it's not an air-stone, it's a sponge filter with bubbles going direct to the top of the water, the sword plant is about 30cm away, the goldfish have a tendency of destroying most plants apart from java fern, trust me they are well fed, they are my wife's babies, they get well looked after :)
 
The reason the goldfish destroy plants is because they need plant matter in their diet. If they don't get plant matter added to their diet, they eat plants, and if they can't get plants to eat, they have more internal problems.
 
Hi and welcome to the forum... :hi:
You must be really enthusiastic if you're fairly new to fishkeeping while having 4 tanks already... :)
