    Dying Rosy Barbs

    Thanks again mate :) I'm in Inverclyde by the way :) Ah I see, it is all making sense to me now. As someone who simply buys fish for my own aquariums it's easy to be ignorant of the whole process. It's black ruby's I have and I adore them! I intend on getting another 6 to get my lot up to...

    Dying Rosy Barbs

    Thanks very much pip walters for explaining all of this to me as only being a hobbyist I really don't have a clue how the lfs get their fish. I'm in Scotland, if you know about lfs here, do they all import or do the lfs buy from breeders in the country usually? I thought with the horny rosies...

    Dying Rosy Barbs

    On a side note, the store is only a 5 min drive from my home and the bag water was crystal clear- it must have been when they got them in. Was in there the other day and there are only a couple of Rosies left in that tank I got them from- I'm pretty sure all those fish weren't bought that...

    Dying Rosy Barbs

    I've heard that they are quite hardy wee fish too- some folk saying they could live in a toilet lol. I think I'm going to get some elsewhere as I like them very much. It does my head in when fish die because I keep an extremely strict maintenance routine in the tank and because it's so large...

    On tank one I'm going for Tiger barbs and tank two will be just a community set up for tetras etc :) I already have that 190L corner tank we spoke about before where I'm still waiting on that to cycle too, that's a community tank but afraid to use anything from that as it's just about cycled...

    Hi Mrvincent :) I've done that on both tanks, my friend couldn't spare a seed from filter but I got a cup of gravel and sprinkled it along the gravel in new tanks :) was careful to make sure that seed was always submersed in water and temp and ph were similar and got it in the tanks within half...

    1 have bought two new 100L tanks a fortnight apart from each other. I'm doing a fishless cycle on both. The first tank is now showing nitrites and no ammonia so the nitrosomonas bacteria is now there and just waiting on the nitrobacter to multiply and get the cycle finished. On the most...
