Hi all, Two wounds have appeared on the underside of one of our khuli loaches. We have isolated him in a hospial tank with aquarium salt and anti-fungal treatment in the water. Can anyone help us diagnose exactly what is wrong with him from the picture attached so we can better target our...

We have comet goldfish about 2yrs old, and have noticed one of them has developed 2 small red lumps, one on each side of his body just in front of the tail. In the centre of one is what looks like a small white spike. Any ideas what this is and how to treat it? We have already put some general...

Hi, we currently have a 180l tank with 2 comet goldfish, one minnow-like thing and a panda moor. We had a hillstream loach however he died :( we're looking for a replacement tank-cleaner but wondering if anyone had suggestions for alternative species for a cold freshwater tank...

We have just upgraded to an 180l tank, we have 2 comet goldfish, 1 minnow and just added a Panda Moor. We are looking at getting a blue lobster however I'm worried he would pose a threat to the other fish/take up too much space, does anyone have any experiance/advice re. this they could share...

We have 2 Comets, a silver minnow feeder fish and a little Panda Moor; they get fed flake food as their basic grub. However we also supplement their diet with Cucumber, Shelled Peas, Brine shrimp, Tubifex and they have Elodea plants that they like to munch on! We tried them with bloodworms once...

Finally settled on a 2 tank set up! The goldfish have been upgraded to a 180 litre and a new addition purchased (hopefully getting 1/2 hillstream loaches for that as well). That meant we could combine the two tropical tanks into the now vacated 90 litre! All seem happy! And the Comets have...

After insisting we weren't going to buy any more fish/fish stuff we decided to get our comet goldfish and feeder fish (minnow) a bigger tank .... And they love it! And while in the pet shop today we found a little Panda moor (new breed of moor apparently) and he was so cute we couldn't leave him...

New arrivals came today :D They are all settled in, will be trying to get pictures later! Got some Kuhli Loaches and a sparkling Guorami to go with the Teenage Silver Mollys (they're growing up :D) - the Guorami is schooling with the Mollys already! Finally managed to get some African Dwarf...

Hi, we are wanting to replace our 30l Biorb (as it is not a very good aquarium at all - did get us started with fish keeping though so can't complain about it too much:s) and were wondering if anyone in the South West of the UK had a 30-40 litre tank for sale? Cheers!

Our baby silver mollys are now ~8 weeks (or at least 8 weeks since i spotted them for the first time!). They are about 2cm (0.8 inches) at the moment. We are getting 2 dwarf african frogs at some point, and obv. want to wait until the mollys are big enough not to get eaten; basically, how big...

Took a while, but managed to get some some non blurry pictures of my lovely fishies! Best I could do with my little Sony Cybershot camera! Might have a try with an underwater camera. Enjoy! This is 'Beer Battered' (we were all students when we won him at a fair and named him!). He's a poser...

My first attempt at a planted tank :). (The goldfish eat any plants I put with them - I don't mind giving them a treat, but they ruin the aquascaping!) Currently got 5 baby mollies in it, am going to add: 2 African dwarf frogs 2 amano shrimp 2 cherry shrimp 1 zebra snail Also wanted to add...

Ive got 5 molly babies, and am giving 3 to a friend; basically i was wondering how i tell if they are male or female so that i dont end up with some very harassed females when i split the group! Cheers :D

This filter came with one of my fishtanks but nothing came with it to say how often to change the filter pad! Has anyone got any experience with these filters? How often should I replace the foam block? And anyone know where in the UK I can buy any? Cheers for the help! :fish2:

Love the look of some glass catfish, do they have any special needs? Basically just looking for some information on them and how easy they are to keep :D Cheers!

I just got a new tank, and am figuring out what to put in it! It is cycling at the moment with some live plants, am going for a natural look. The mollies are definitly going in as I already have them (apparently the female i bought was fertilised - babies!) I was thinking the following: 2 x...

One of my goldfish has a white cist about where the fin meets the body, from what i've seen in pictures i think it's white spot. I can easily treat this but i also have a bourneo pleco in with him and worried about possible effects of the meds on him. Any thoughts?

Hi, i have just got a new tank and have 2-3 mollys to go in it but was looking at getting some african dwarf frogs to go with them. Will these two co-habit peacefully? Any thoughts?

My coldwater tank is getting a bit too warm in this heat, is there anything i can do to keep it cooler? I cant move the tank anywhere else! I heard that keeping the water moving a bit might help? If so how do i do that?! Cheers :D

As i got an answer about my silver molly so quickly i thought id ask about my other unknown fish! Its the silver one in the pictures. Any ideas? Thanks! Btw tank looks v small in pictures, dont worry its much bigger the fish just like hanging out with each other!

Hi, If anyone could help with this it would be great! One of the fish in my tank is the white one seen in the photos (called Ice :D) and basically i have no idea what he is! The pet shop said he was an albino pleco but no plecos ive seen look like him! Thankyou!
