    I've got a fluval u3 filter in my 12g tank and never had any problems until now.

    Fluval U3 advice?

    Cichlid fry

    Hi all I'm interested in starting a new breeding tank and would like your opinions on which species to get. What is the easiest egg layer to breed? I've heard convicts are easy but will they be able to survive in my community tank afterwards? Thanks :)

    Which fish?

    Hey everyone. I have a 48 litre tank with white gravel. No live plants. I'm looking to get a new species of fish. Currently I have neon tetra, bloodfin tetra, german blue ram and a molly. Is there a very colourful fish that could mix with these without fighting? Thanks :)
