Hi all! My AguaStyle 980T powerhead has died this morning, after merely 3 years of work :/ It was pumping the water to the spray bar above the tank, and the water is going down through set of sponges and ceramic rings. I have a small replacement filter that can keep the tank going till I get...

Hi. I have moved house last November, and for few reasons I was not able to use a tap water for the tank. Because the place did come with a massive plastic container for catching rain water (the water is gathered from the gutter and after it's been filled it doesn't take any more, so it's fair...

Ever since I got myself "Marian" - a Green Severum - I have those algaes on my plants, and I don't know how to get rid of them... It started, because I put bit more food especially for my fish, as I knew it's gonna be a big one (and indeed, he's eating for a whole tank just himself), but those...

Hi all. I just upgraded my Aquastyle 850 to a bigger model (980T), so it is for grabs :) If you live in the UK, preferably in the Midlands area (but not necessary :D), it might be yours for £210 (o.n.o.) I'll be happy to answer all the questions. Here's the link to the eBay page, should you...

I'm a happy owner of AquaStyle 850 aquarium by Aqua One. I have always been fond of live plants in the tank, but with original lightning there is not too much green I can grow. What would you guys (and girls, obviously) recommend to switch it to? I can't seem to find any original replacement in...

I have always had troubles keeping Guppies in my tank, ever since I started my first one over two years ago. Whenever I took any to the tank, they've been dead after few months, sometimes even weeks. Only recently I talked with "my fish store" lady and she told me about one of her customers...

Day 1: Recently I've noticed a few white spots on my Black Skirt Tetra, today I see it on a few Neon Tetras and my Guppy :( I think it's an Ich and for now will treat (see what I did there? :D) it that way. I've already lost one Glass Catfish and I hope I won't loose any more of my fishy...

After best part of seven months my Snowball Pleco - 'Kropek' - is finally out of his hideout! Yay :D (Sorry for the quality - I was afraid to scare him away so the shot was taken in the 'fast mode' with my iPhone)

Caught my RTS resting on the temple, although it doesn't look this way at all. He's gorgeous! Don't you think?

My Red Crystal Shrimp was behaving badly, so she was thrown to Jail! :whistle:

Bought those two little fellas yesterday and... forgot the name :hide: Can you ID them for me, please? Also-- they seem to be a bit relentless, is that normal? I thought they be sitting on the bottom more, and they seem to be all over the place :)

First of all-- IT'S ALIVE!!!!! Today I've seen my RCS for the first time in a few days, after her playing strange, but it's OK, munching the algaes as usual :dance: Thanks to everybody for your kind words. But other thing has caught my eye in the mean time-- this line, that "water changes could...

Today I spent about three hours changing water in my tank, cleaning it and - with my wife's help - trimming and rearranging the plants. I love the new look so much, that I need to share it :brows: What do you guys think?

After so many posts about a bad advices given by LFS, I thought I put a bit of credit, because there are a really good ones out there :-) I say this, because of my yesterday's adventure.... There's this shop a few miles from where I live - not really the closest one, but they really know what...

Today a friend at work asked me, why is her fish sick, since she knew I'm an aquatic-able guy ;) Her goldfish (I presume it's a goldfish, according to her description) is resting vertically on the gravel, face-down. I asked her about her cleaning routine... It turned out, she never changed her...

For a while now I wanted to create a live background for my tank, but couldn't find a proper mesh for it. (And thought, that the eBay one are a bit too expensive to my liking). And finally, today, I've stumbled upon an item that was exactly what I needed, and for the price that I liked :cool...

I looked at my smaller (Walter's) tank and saw a hundreds of tiny, white, hairline things (worms:confused:) covering the sides of a tank... It is a freshwater tank with my Betta, two nerite snails and an elephant snail. I also had a two shrimps in there, but can't find them anymore :ermm: What...

Some time ago my wife decided to move some furnitures around, and the tank has found himself a new place in the room... And then I've noticed, that life in the tank has frozen - apple snail hid himself under the bunch of java moss, my shark stayed in the coral decoration all the time, shrimps...

I've just added a black backdrop for my 25 litres tank, and Walter has finally decided to show how gorgeous he is :cool: Watch and admire :angel:

I've seen this recently at my LFS and fell in love with them! Has anyone got some info about them apart the general stuff fond in here: African Butterfly Fish - Tropical Fish Forums ? I'd wish to know whether they are agressive and if I can put them with other fishes like gouramis or guppies?

Keeping in mind that there is no stupid question... I have a pests snail infestation recently, and I can see more and more of them inside my filter (it's a Aqua One's original filter that rests on top of the tank). So my question is - if I put an Assassin Snail inside the filter bucket - would...

Anyone have any experience with them? Are they doing anything really or it's just a waste of money?

I'm aware of a fact that from time to time a fish can die all of sudden without any symptoms. But after losing a guppy few days a go and shrimp yesterday, I'm a bit worried... So the question is - how often that kind of "occasional" (let's call it this way from lack of a better word?) death is...

Looks like something ate my plant, but I can't think of what, as it never happened before :/ Could Apple Snail do this, or maybe some pests snails (I have a lot of those totally flat ones, so I have bought another Assasin Snail-- there's two of them now)? Any info will help, so I'd know what to...

Hi there. Due to circumstances I have one Glass Catfish left. I know they're community fish and I don't have enough room to buy another three or four so for his and mine better feeling I decided to find him another home. So if someone lives in the Midlands area (Staffs or nearby) and wants a new...
