Hi everyone, I wonder if you can help. My apple snails have had a few clutches of babies now and some of them are getting to a size where they are ready to be passed on to new homes. I spoke to a guy at my lfs and I was told by him that they weren't allowed to sell them any more! Now this...

Hi everyone :) I've been treating my tank for ich using methylene green/formaldehyde medication and slightly raised temperature. Unfortunately I have reached the end of the treatment and all of the spots have not disappeared. This is what I have done so far: Day 1: raised temp to 28...

Oh dear, I have ich :( well not me, my fish to be more precise... I have treated this condition before on my goldfish and betta so have some medication in my box of tricks. The product is called 'love fish anti white spot & parasite' -a cheapo from my local 'pets at home' store so not sure if...

I got up this morning and was upset to find that two of my fish were all dried up behind their tanks :( Can anyone offer me a solution for my problem? Why might they have jumped and how can I stop it happening again? Its very strange because it has never happened before, both tanks are covered...

I came in from work this evening and I think I may have walked in on a romantic snail moment... Can anyone with any snail breeding knowledge confirm that this is what they are up to? I'm pretty nervous because I really wasn't expecting this and have no knowledge of what baby snails require...

Hi everyone :) I really want some hatchetfish in my 120 litre tank, but something just crossed my mind and having never kept them before (or known anyone keep them) so I thought maybe there was someone here who might know. Well... I understand that hatchetfish can jump out of the water as a...

I have already asked this briefly in the introduction thread, but I thought I would probably get more luck here! Here is a picture of one of my aquariums: As you can see it's looking pretty sad and bare, and I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas how i could make it look better? I...

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone could let me know if this stocking would work for my tank? The tank is a bit over 120 liters if I've worked it out right - 30" x 15" x 18". I have a 150 watt heater which is currently heating to 26 degrees Celsius (not sure what that is in...

Hi everyone, just thought I'd take a minute to introduce myself - my name is Eli and I'm from Wales! I'm not a complete novice but I'm pretty new to all of this. My first fish was around 2 years ago and was a tiny little goldfish which the kids came home with after a trip to the fair...
