    Bloated Neon

    Thanks very much, I fully appreciate this. What, if anything, would be recommended for a 5 gal? Considering I have the 7 neons and the albino Cory, I guess I'm just gonna have to hope for the best eh?

    Bloated Neon

    Moving filter media won't be possible as they're two completely different filters. And when you say clean pantyhose, you mean clean as in 'brand new'? Bloody **** I know you say not to get down about it but I am now!!!!

    Bloated Neon

    Oh god. What have I done!? I feel awful! I seriously do! It's only a 5 gal, so I'm well prepared to buckle down and try to cycle the tank with the fish in. I have a well established goldfish tank (been running two years and have always only ever done PWC in that tank. Healthy goldfish, filtered...

    Bloated Neon

    Tank age is only two weeks. The aquatic store tested my water yesterday but I've written it down and can't find it. They said it was perfect

    Bloated Neon

    Could this be a sign of pregnancy? Just one out of my 7 looks real fat. It's feeding fine and has no colour loss. Help!

    Albino Cory!

    I can imagine they're great as 2-3 but I only have a 5 gal tank, 7 neons and the Cory. I dunno if I could accommodate anything else.

    Albino Cory!

    They're actually cat fish pellets recommended by the store. Only added him and a couple of neons this afternoon.

    Albino Cory!

    I know you shouldn't feed them straight away, but I dropped two pellets in for him and he never found one! My neons were more interested!! Is this normal?

    Heater help please!

    Cycling isn't a problem. As I say, i'll be testing it tomorrow and if it ain't cycled, no fishies! I've kept goldfish for years now so am well aware of the process :) The heater is on the left, filter on the right but its a small tank and because of the decor too, the heater can't really go...

    Heater help please!

    Thats the thing. A difference of about 2 degrees may not be a massive issue? And as you say, as its a small tank, the temperatures will change quicker due to the fact its less water? I'ma ask him tomorrow when I go in, if its normal for it to happen. The shop workers seemed pretty clued up and...

    Heater help please!

    I just thought it was normal as my younger brother has the same heater at his house and it kinda does the same thing. I'm gonna jot the temperature every two hours so if I come back to you tomorrow with the results can you help a little further and see whether it is worth exchanging it?? I'd...

    Heater help please!

    Well, my tank is only 20L(not sure what that is in GAL). It's for my visually impaired baby son as it stimulates his sight so is only going to house a few neons. The table graph on the heater manual states 25W for 4-30L tanks. Mines a 20L and I have the 25W heater so I would think this would be...
