Hi All, Just wanted to share a funny discovery I made. I have 5 tiger barbs & unfortunately I lost my lovely 2 large clown loaches so I put two baby clown loaches in. I find clown loaches have very big personalities, but some can be shy and like to hide. Well, both my lovely clown loaches...

I once went to pet shop and they swore blind the molly I bought was a boy (I had 2 girls and babies coming out of my ears), before I could get home the "boy" had babies in the plastic bag! Yours looks pretty close

Thanks Holly, I know what Nitrate is just dont have testing kit for it, will get. Bristlenose died, I will do all that you have suggested though, continue treatment. Looking at her, I reckon she may have hurt herself and then gone on to get a secondary infection. Thanks again for your help...

Thank you everyone, my bristlenose just died, looking at her, I suspect she has hurt herself and from what I can gather from reading on this site (really helpful) I reckon she has got a secondary infection of some sort. I will still change from tank water to town water as suggested, get a full...

Yes thank you Holly, I posted on there, changed my water today, ph is 7, ammonia is 0. Clown loaches are happy and coloured completely (they fade if the water is not good). It doesn't look like pock marks it looks more like mouldy cheese, its ulcerated on her head, covering her tummy,,,,,

Hi Everyone, My female bristlenose has this awful looking ulcer like sore, though it is white and on her belly it looks like she has been dusted with cornflour. She is still eating, no other fish has it in the aquarium, the aquarium has been running for ages though we moved and I used tank...

Oh mollys the rabbits of the aquarium, I used to use an "aquarium nursery" for my molly mums but they had so many babies, continuously I just let them go and let nature take its course as LindaB posted. You will get some fry who live, but they have so many, unless you are interested in selling...

Hi All, New to this forum, one of my lovely female bristlenose has this nasty sore on her head, her tummy looks like it is coated in cornflour. I got some PROTOZIN and have done one treatment, is it white spot (ICH)?
