    Does anybody know if you can mix the left over kalkwasser sludge in the bottom of the ATO reservoir with new water and just keep using it to top up your tank or is this mix not actually Kalk and needs tipping out? I only ask because my tank has very very little evaporation and I have to...

    Aggressive Clowns

    Hey I just added a tomato clown to my tank and she's being pretty aggressive towards my other fish. I have isolated the fish but is it worth keeping it? Will it be aggressive towards anything I add to the tank in the future?

    Why do I keep losing fish?
