Any more suggestions?

3 fancy goldfish but like i said very small! and the 2nd plec (also very small) The tank has a full sealed hood on it, and it would be impossible for it to escape!

I had 2 very small coldwater plecs, aka The Chinese Hillstream Loach, Pseudogastromyzon myers Now, i didn't see one of them for about 3 days so i had a little peep round the tank, left it another day. Yesterday i thought i'd do a full clean out of the tank, so i removed everything except for...

Mine once did that n i got told it was some sort of irritation, usually from something in the water?

ok then so just out of interest... How many schooling fish would fit comfortably by themselves in a 30litre tank?

I'm just thinkin stuff tropical now lol from what people have told me it's a hell of a lot of hassle. And i can still get coldwater schooling fish too, which is what i mainly want. I just don't want the poor lil fishies die in the process of me learning lol!

yer, my local DIY store in town sells slates and various rocks. This 'dechlorination product', could you name any and if so will my local petstore sell this?

great guys thanks! N yes i am aware they're nocturnal... however mine seem to have their own little rules lol and come out when they like! How do you tell which is male or female? Will they breed? I've noticed, when they're stuck onto the glass... one has a huge mouth opening (really wide and...

Gunna be moving appartments soon, when i bought them i noticed the pet shop guy spent about 15 mins trying to catch the little plec lol Any tips? coz they're an absolute nightmare. Here's a pic of what i have, (2 of)...

I've noticed a lot guys flaunting there new tanks, with a fair amount of stacked slate/rocks in there? In my local pet store they do sell these but at quite a cost! Can i use standard rock from the wild and/ or slate from a builders merchant? Is the best thing to, soak these in boiling water...

In a 100litre setup, i was looking to put perhaps 2 schools of fish perhaps tetras + guppies, alongside a few other fish. What's a good amount for each school of fish if there is to be 2 schools of different types?

right ok then, currently i have 3 fancy goldfish in a 50L cube shape tank with 2 very tiny little plecs which are apparantly actually "The Chinese Hillstream Loach, Pseudogastromyzon myersi" Now i do realise this is overstocked, however the tank has 50% pwc a week, and 2 filters in there...
