I'm starting a new water tank. It's going to be a killie tank. Has anyone any advice on the kind of killies I should start with. It's a 10 liter tank, it won't be heated. I won't put any filter or light either. I'm thinking of putting 2/3 aphyosemions...

Has anyone any information on their reproduction? Any articles? I think there's something in the encyclopeadia britannica but I can't find it here (France) Thank you.

You often refer to a fish symptom disease as flashing, is it when fish swim very fast while rubbing against plants? and what sort of disease is it the symptom of? Thanks

I'm very sad :(. I still don't know what happened to her. The male looks better now but the female is dying. She doesn't swim at all but stays motionless at the surface of the water. She's been unwell for 5 weeks but today I think she's dying. What worries me most is that I'm afraid the other...

Hello, I posted this some time ago in general discussion but had only one reply... I've had some problems for three weeks now first with my female dwarf gourami (colisa lalia). Her behaviour changed, she started to hide and to be very shy, which she wasn't all. I thought she was bothered by...

Hello, I've had some problems for over a week now first with my female dwarf gourami (colisa lalia). Her behaviour changed, she started to hide and to be very shy, which she wasn't at all. I thought she was bothered by her male so I separated them, it didn't help. I was told something may be...

I need a bit of advice. For 2 days my female dwarf gourami has been very shy, hiding among the the plants. She's in a water tank with a male dwarf gourami, 3 honey gourami (colisa chuna) 8 barbs (titeya) and 6 kuhlis in a 120l water tank. Up to 2 days ago, everything was fine, she was very...

I've got a 50 liter tank (about 13 gallon tank) but I don't know what sort of fish I could introduce, any suggestions? Thanks

The other day I read one message and it was mentioned the price of water tanks in the States and where to buy cheaper ones. I belong to a club of fish fans in my town and some members build up their own water tanks, it's really much cheaper and you can have exactly what you want. They told me...

I added one male betta to my community tank a few days ago and up to now, I haven't had any problems. The male dwarf gourami was very cuorious but looked quite impressed by the betta fins - as he was stressed in the first couple of hours, he swam with his fins completely spread out. After a few...

I'd like to take pictures of my new friends: a couple of dwarf gouramis, one betta, some kuhlis, ancistus and rasboras. Can I use the flash? isn't it too stressful for them? What sort of film do you suggest? thanks for your advice

how long can you live the fish in total darkness?

My ancistrus eat the algae and some pills I put in the tank for the kuhli as well but I was told it's good to give them spinach or cucumber, has anyone tried? and how much should I give? Generally speaking what's the correct amount of food for a fish a day? one flake for a mature fish? one pill...

I was told it's possible to have a couple of colisa lalia and a betta (male). Has anyone got these fish together?

I've got some snails in my planted tank. I regularly take them out but there're always some left. What can I do? Thanks

Hello, I'm new in that hobby and I've got a 120 liter tank with 10 rasbora hengeli, 6 kuhli and 3 ancistrus. I'd like to add one beta splendens and a couple of colisa lalia. Is it possible and if it is, which one should I introduce first? Thanks
