I have five rams which are hard to tell too... think they mostly look like females, due to the curved/rounded fin. Hope the pictures come through - I have had issues with uploading photos on this site! Also Apologies about the orientation of the pictures - I uploaded them portrait - but for...

Hi all, I am moving flat shortly and thought it would be a good idea to rescape the tank - but then also thought - well actually why not upgrade the tank as I need to remove everything from it anyhow... Wanted to find out a general consensus on what tanks people have upgraded to after having a...

Upgrading my Tank...? So, I am moving flat in about a month - and as I needed to transport the tank - I thought - hey I could do a rescape - and so started to think about this - an what to rescape to. Am pretty keen on sand...

A tank full of EBRs... Dear all, So an update first on my tank: Quite a few of the guppies managed to lose their lives - I went through two cycles of the General Tonic and I think the tank finally settled. For the last six weeks I have had five guppies, two EBRs and one Pleco. One of the...

Thanks Gilpi and ScotJudd, Yes - it is so I can keep and/or plant more live plants. I still have a bit of the aquagro not used - so thought of literally putting whatever is left on the bottom and then covering with a couple of cm's of sand. Hoping this means that not much will some through -...

Thanks bigsea, Yes unfortunately my pictures never seem to show up! I tried google-ing my substrate did not find many exact matches - but just wanted to ask on here if people have added sand on top of substrate before (and not gravel). Would it sort of be like dirting?

Hi all, Just spent a while reading various posts on gravel v sand v substrate v soil discussions on here. Very informative, but still have a question. I currently am using aquagro neutrasoil (pic attached) I am a bit bored of the setup in the tank and want to change it up a bit. I want to...

couldn't save him... so, came home all the fish seemed fine - except the little one... couldn't find him anywhere... thought he was still hiding in the driftwood... kept an eye out for him... sat down on my sofa and looked in from the back of the tank - and there he was dead, lying on the...

Third batch... with an exchange... So the danios were getting very big... and I was falling for the colourful guppies, so went back to the LFS and gave them the danios back and bought some more guppies - and an electric blue ram! Yes - maybe the EBR was an impulse buy... but he seems alright...

Second batch of fish... So a couple of weeks later I thought the tank and I were ready for more fish - and went and got four guppies and four endler guppies. Let the bags get to the right temperature, let them into the tank and they seem to settle - except for the endlers! They were really up...

My first fish: So I left the tank going for about a month, with weekly water changes keeping an eye on the Ammonia, Nitrites and pH. Finally bought myself the API Master kit - honestly - it is the only one. The other tests were useful whilst I was in fishless cycle - and quick checks - but...

So came home today, did a water test: temp: 24C pH: 7.4 Nitrate 40ppm - is that high?? Nitrite: 0 Ammonia: 0 the small one is really really thin now and hardly moving - part of me wanted to euthanase him - to get him out of his misery... but will try to save him first! so added the interpret...

Apologies sent it twice

Just read these, but already ordered in interpret no 5 and no 9. General Tonic and Anti internal bacteria (sorry pressed send!) Shall I just use them or get some salt first?

Thanks Matt, Tried searching for fishQ procedures, not sure what I'm meant to get. Do you mean search on this forum or Google? If you have a link that would be useful, Thanks
