Ok I'll try that. Thanks.

Hi guys, I've bought two plecs for my tank and after doing research found I need to do water changes at least every week (which I already do) but have to clean the gravel thoroughly too with a gravel cleaner to get rid of the plec poo. However I have a very fine gravel, like sand type of stuff...

Thanks for the advise. Well an update for you. turned temperature up as advised. went to work one day and unfortunately one fish died (it was covered in white spot) well i went out to buy some medication. did a water change before applying medication. Later found out my other fish in another...

90 litre tank and I do around 50% water change. I'll get some pictures upload soon.

Thanks for the replies guys. At current I change my water every week as I was told. My temperature at the tank at current is 80 F. The only fish I have in it at current is 5 guppies and a Pleco. How much more can I increase the temp? I don't want to kill them by boiling them.
