Recently got rid of my 7 tiger barbs because they were a keeping my elephant nose from feeding. They would eat all the bloodworms before he even got a chance to have any. I had also recently added some red/bleu tetras but everynight one would disappear. With the tiger bars always so aggressive...

My elephant nose used to be shy when i just got him, it took over a month for him to come out during the day. I was happy to see him getting use to the tank but now he seems to bully everyone. He is always chasing my angelfish and sometimes even the clown loaches. I also have tiger barbs in the...

I'm not sure what happened but I can't find one of my 3 clown loaches. He has been missing in my tank all afternoon and the 2 others are very active. I did a water change today but there is no way I sucked him out. Maybe he is hiding in the driftwood. I hope he's not dead and floating inside the...

Hi guys, I got an elephant nose on Friday and he stays hidden unless there's is total darkness in the tank and room. Because of that I'm having a hard time feeding him as the other fish won't leave any food for him. Should I be worried ? It's only been a day
