    Really good app ipad iphone!

    I just purchased the pro version of the app. It seems quite good at first glance. Needs species adding to it, or the ability to add species yourself if there not listed. But other than that worth the couple of quid for sure

    Really good app ipad iphone!

    Can you manage livestock of fresh water aquariums or does the app only list sw fish?

    Malawi I.D and UK value please

    Ah well, funny you should say that about the whole bumble bee thing actually! When I collected the tank and fish, the previous owner said they called this fish bumble because when they bought it, it was yellow and black!!! So that sounds like you have hit the nail on the head with that one...

    blood worm question

    You could get some sinking pellets for your loach for when it's not having bloodworms. My loach loves pellets, much more than flake that has sunk. Other things you could feed them on are cooked peas (just 1 or 2) they help there digestive system. Cooked prawns, loaches love them!

    blood worm question

    I would only feed bloodworms every other day and something like flake on the other days and it's good to have a day once a week or fortnight when they have no food at all.

    Curious on what people use gravel or sand

    I have children's play pit sand in 2 of my tanks and black gravel in my small breeder tank. I like the sand but its hard to suck up all the fish waste on the bottom of the tank and not pick up any sand with it! But it only cost me £2 for 15kg
