    [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7] This is my new betta, his name is Simsim (my 3yo daughter named him!) I fell in love with him as soon as I saw him. He’s a double tail, Black eyes & iridescent colour changes in the light so tried to get it in the pics [emoji7] Lovely new...

    Changing fish?

    The Panic I just had! PHEW I did know this about Plecos I must have forgotten somewhere in my mind why it was okay for mine - She’s a Bristlenose thank goodness! I’ll take the tip with the gourami & shrimp! I do have some shrimp in a nano tank with some cherry barbs so I’ll have to keep them in...

    Changing fish?

    I have a 60l which has been set up since May, it has 4 Corys & a Pleco in the right now, just yesterday I did a waterchange and netted out probably around 40 Platy, some just turned adults, two elders and A LOT of fry all different ages. I took them to my local (amazing) fish store and they...

    Sweet potato for nitrates removal

    I like the sound of this!! Does the potato have to be old to do this or can I go and buy one? I never knew they could be so useful I saw a video on YouTube of a sweet potato in a tank but thought it may be for effect! Will be doing in my nano ?? Thanksfor sharing!!

    Pearl Gourami

    These could be ammonia burn? I’ve recently had do some some reading online to find the cause to similar on my Pleco and I got a medicine from my local aquatic store that covers fungal and bacterial infections & finrot called “eSHa 2000” on the box.

    Rescaped my 20L

    I agreed that my nephew could have some pet fish at my home ! He was very excited ! We got 3f 2m Cherry Barbs and 3 Blue shrimp! They’re all hiding but I wanted to show the tank - Totally different concept I’ve also done a wet start on some love grass in the gravel (the majority floated out...

    Bristlenose Pleco - Ammonia Burn

    Just something I wanted to write about this - put out there & hear back what others thoughts are?! Yesterday I did a 50% water change as I had left the tank three days longer than the usual weekly (30%) change as a new drop of platy fry had come the night before the WC was due. During this...

    Are these Seed Shrimp?

    I agree that is quite an odd wording, I was thinking the same as I typed it - Online advice probably should be reworded to a sufficient amount of bacteria that they will eat & live on as it’s really unclear where they come from? I does seem to be more around live plants there have been loads on...

    Are these Seed Shrimp?

    It does look like it’s a seed shrimp, they come in different colours. I remember reading when I first encountered them they’ll multiply from ‘over’ feeding but you can also buy traps for them online, they’re not harmful though

    Which snail is best?!

    Thanks for your reply Sara! I’m definitely going to find a store near me that has some mystery snails I’ve done a bit of reading on them & do sound appealing! I bought an assassin today to control the pest snails so he’ll need to be moved once that’s under control but I’m definitely sold for a...

    General advice for Platy Fry please? :)

    Beautiful pair of tanks! Really good amount of plants as well. What sizes are they & which plants have you got? Have you found the urge to save them? Only asking as my female has today had another drop of fry and I’m having super guilt ! I had to read what you said again about natural selection...

    Which snail is best?!

    Hey! I’m needing some votes & info please [emoji5] I’m currently cycling an 80?L (unsure on capacity) Haven’t gotten around to measuring it yet... Anyway - I already have a Zerba nerite in one tank but my fault with them is the eggs are a pain to remove esp. from wood. My Tylomelania...
