    Pregnant platy & buried alive ghost shrimp

    Thank you :) the little guy appeared today and is hiding in the plants...I guess he was scared or maybe shed so feeling vulnerable and hiding so well! I look out for babies but I'd imagine they won't last too long....may invest in some live plants or Moss ball for future x

    Identification needed

    I have attached a better picture I've managed to snap. They seem quiet. There's 2 but the other is hiding away and not moving much - I guess stress? I plan to re home the barbs as they're not really my style of fish. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    Hello. I have a 100w SuperFish Eco heater in my 60L tank currently. I have this set to 25oC and near air stone and filter to ensure heated water is distributed.
