Thanks, although a bit worrying, most of the journey is on the motorway, highway to you I expect, will be careful going over any bumps and will make sure tank is wrapped well. Not too sure of date moving but wanted to know in advance of what I doing. Thanks again

Thanks for advise, will do what you stated. I suppose it will be less stressful for them than trying to net them and less hassle for me. Thanks again

Can anyone give me advice on how to transport my fish on about an hours journey. I have a small 5 gallon tank with some danios in unheated water with a sponge filter, could I empty about 2/3rds of the water and leave about a 3rd and would they be alright in the boot of the car and make sure...

You are right I think it's a Ludwigia mullertii I looked on google, I can snip the growing point off as it getting above water line, thanks to all.

Is this picture clearer ?

I will ask in the aquarium shop that I go to next time I visit. Thanks for your help

Thanks for reply, I must admit I do turn filter off, some of the food does lay on the grassy plant I have but they seem really dim (poor things) the granules I feed don't float they go straight down I tried pellets and flakes but they don't seem to like them and I always syphoning them off the...

Can anyone tell me what this plant is called and also can I trim the top, thanks

I need some help on feeding my Bloodfins, what happens is because they are mid water feeders food just seems to go straight pass them to the bottom where the other fish will eat it, when I feed frozen bloodworm I can hold it with my tweezers to make sure they get some but any other food like...

I let him out of net yesterday and he seemed to have calmed down, I am watching this morning and they all seemed to be doing their usual danio thing, fingers crossed they'll be okay, if not naughty net for him again lol

She not on her side but she actually rests her underneath on the gravel not hovering, I will see what happens when I let him out, if he continues I will net him again and take him back, thanks for your responses.

I just been watching her she is hanging around the net where he is and seems agitated going up and down the glass very jerky do you think she wants him out, cos I thinking if she does want to release eggs she wants him there to fertilise them, or am I thinking wrong as do not know much about...

To tell you the truth I only noticed it late morning as I took a plant out and adjusted a rock, I was watching the tank when I noticed this behaviour I could see she stressed as she was trying to rest on the gravel but he wasn't letting her I have never seen any fish sitting on the gravel before...

He just keeps chasing her, she tries to hide but he finds her, I am worried because she is getting very stressed, at the moment I got a peaceful tank now he's netted, it's hard to tell if he nipping her as they so fast. I will let him out later and see what happens, do you think she may have...

I have 4 leopard Danios I believe to be 1 male and 3 females, I noticed today that the male is really harassing a female so much so that she keeps resting on the gravel and breathing fast, he kept on and on so I netted him to give her a rest. Now what to do, is he trying to mate with her or is...
