    Bronze Corys dying

    The first one that I found, looks pretty bad, just lying on his side with an occasional twitch. The second one seems to look a little better, but not 100%

    Bronze Corys dying

    Ok, did another water change. I can't drop the water level due to my filter outlet. I get pretty good surface agitation from my filter, but I have added a air stone on a separate pump for now, just in case.

    Bronze Corys dying

    Today I found one oft bronze cores on his side gasping. About an hour later a second one is doing the same. I can't see anything physically wrong with them apart from their behavior. The tank is a mature community tank with gouramis, platies, blue neon tetras, bronze corys and some shrimp. I...

    Stocking level check

    Nice looking fish, thanks for the recommendation Bolivian Butterfly 4cm - American - Cichlids - Tropical Fish I saw the rummynose in my LFS on the weekend and thought they would look great in the tank. Would I be pushing it if I got 10 of them?

    Small Algae Eater?

    What about Cherry Shrimp? I've added four to my tank to see how they go. Apparently they love to eat algae.

    Platty behaviour

    The lone female platy that was acting strange died :(. I guess she was sick. The male is still hitting on the one female as before.

    Platty behaviour

    I'm not sure if the one that is getting picked on would make the Freshwater Playboy Fin Edition or not

    Platty behaviour

    I have one male and five female platties in my tank. The male charges and chases off one of the females whenever they get close. He only does it to the one female and swims with the others no problems. Is this some sort of mating thing or does he hate this one female? Also one of the...

    Algae cleaner for Yabby tank

    I have two Yabby tanks (Australian freshwater crayfish). One is 20 liters and the other is 60 liters. I'm after advice on what I can put in with the yabbies to clean up algae. My LFS says the yabbies will eat snails as the move too slow.
