Feeding Bettas flake is perfectly acceptable, I usually switch between flake and bloodworm every couple of days. Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

So as not to be rude, just to let you know she is just a fatty! The pea trick didn't really work none of the fish were tempted and the blue terra kept herself fed by eating the Platys ( not Molly's as I'd thought ) poop. Ah well as long as she's happy. Thanks for all the advice though cheers.

The odd thing is that the tomato was only in the water for approx 10 to 20 seconds so I didn't even see any of them eat it they just immediately went funny then died. Not sure if the tomato adversely affected the water but like I said all the other shrimp appear fine! I'm contemplating doing a...

Well just had my second major fail as an aquarium owner! Thought i'd try something a little different for my shrimp and give them a blanched veggie, however with the lack of lettuce, spinach, zucchini or carrots I thought I'd give a tomatoes a go as its all I had and hey it's red! Had a little...

Well didn't quite go according to plan, she's still massive. I'll give the de shelled pea a go but not sure how you'd expect me to fast her and not the other fish without separating her from them? Oh and don't worry I will feed her for a day before I give this a go so as not to starve her as...

Ok I'll give that a go as she is a greedy fish and I have also witnessed her eating a crustacean pellet in one. Any advice on how I could separate her whilst feeding the rest of the community tank without stressing her out too much?

Here's some pictures of one of my Blue Tetra I'm pretty certain she's pregnant but can't be sure, she been like this for a few weeks now but is still eating well and behaving normally. I'm not entirely sure how long she'd hold the eggs for which is why I'm slightly concerned I keep expecting to...

Hey there people, first time joining a thread quite new too keeping aquariums but all seems to be going well so far the bug has gotten a hold of me and I'm struggling not to rush in and bite off more than I can chew. Hoping to get a little advice from more experienced people so as I don't have...
