Morning all,i have a juwel bioflow filter and was just wondering if I could wash the coarse blue sponges that are used for growing the bacteriea. They dont seem to have any properties like the nitrate sponge and the carbon sponges so cant see any harm in washing them when the time comes...

Thing that gets me though is what should I be feeding at what age?! Theres no rule of thumb about it that I can see and everyone I now says different things and google is about as much help as a chocolate fire guard trying to find tge right answer with 2000000 people saying they all no best.

15!!,do they get a menu at dinner time?

Cheers though

£8 and may not eat it,trial n error I think

How about brine shrimp,been looking at OCEAN NUTRITION stuff thats live but not cheap. Would they be better on that while I get them on normal?

Im trying ground up pellets mixed in a paste that I feed the parents but they dont seem to be going for it yet

Or does it not do harm to carry on with it?

Yeah suppose I should fridge it,not sure of the make up off it so didnt no if anything in there to go off. also dont think I should be ysing it afrer 6 week should i??!

Hi all,how long does liquifry(interpet) last once opened? Been over 6 weeks now and wondered if would be going of cos cant see any markings on bottle. Cheers

Hi all,what should I be feeding my fantail fry? Get told different things from different people. Got some at 8 weeks and got some at 5 weeks,at the minute they are on this shrimp thats in blocks. Should I be carryin on with liqui fri?

Sponge filter got atlast!i do listen eventually guys

Got a 90ltr to set up next week cos gonna need room for a couple of fry we r keeping so will split them for a while then. Been reading too much google about tge matter and my heads fried,says about breeding between april and sept but she been at it for 3 month now every 2 week,says bout keeping...

So where could that have come from then? Good or bad?

Morning all! How long would a female fantail spawn for? Is it a life term thing? That sounda more stupid than I thought!! Just wondering cos they r at it every 2 weeks now and if anything she seems to be loosing her condition with all the chasing thats going. Is splitting them my only option...
