Hi all, Two wounds have appeared on the underside of one of our khuli loaches. We have isolated him in a hospial tank with aquarium salt and anti-fungal treatment in the water. Can anyone help us diagnose exactly what is wrong with him from the picture attached so we can better target our...

We have comet goldfish about 2yrs old, and have noticed one of them has developed 2 small red lumps, one on each side of his body just in front of the tail. In the centre of one is what looks like a small white spike. Any ideas what this is and how to treat it? We have already put some general...

Hi, we currently have a 180l tank with 2 comet goldfish, one minnow-like thing and a panda moor. We had a hillstream loach however he died :( we're looking for a replacement tank-cleaner but wondering if anyone had suggestions for alternative species for a cold freshwater tank...

Cool! Never heard about the orange slice before, might give it a try! we've had the same problem with goldfish uprooting/eating plants, annoying when you like aquascaping!

We have just upgraded to an 180l tank, we have 2 comet goldfish, 1 minnow and just added a Panda Moor. We are looking at getting a blue lobster however I'm worried he would pose a threat to the other fish/take up too much space, does anyone have any experiance/advice re. this they could share...

We have 2 Comets, a silver minnow feeder fish and a little Panda Moor; they get fed flake food as their basic grub. However we also supplement their diet with Cucumber, Shelled Peas, Brine shrimp, Tubifex and they have Elodea plants that they like to munch on! We tried them with bloodworms once...

Love it :D The aquascaping is great, really like the bubble tube!

And some more! Here we have our ADF 'Frogwick' being wonderfully cute and well behaved, and a picture of 'Beer Battered' the comet - asking for food as per usual! And the new addition: 'Manwe' (bf likes Tolkien) - he's a Panda Moor.

And here we have another of the Sparkling Guorami (haven't thought of a name yet!) - he's hard to get a picture of! Also a couple of the Kuhli loaches and a Black Phantom Tetra

Finally settled on a 2 tank set up! The goldfish have been upgraded to a 180 litre and a new addition purchased (hopefully getting 1/2 hillstream loaches for that as well). That meant we could combine the two tropical tanks into the now vacated 90 litre! All seem happy! And the Comets have...

The corys are really cute! The tent is awesome as well :D yeh mollys are live bearers so do v easily reproduce..... We bought 1 silver molly - turns out she was pregnant, we now have 6! They tend to munch their fry though so if you want to keep any babies you must seperate them!

directtropicals.co.uk are good - healthy fish!

My god its huge! V jealous - cant wait to see how it turns out!

In their old tank - they like to stick together!

Yeh they so do! Had one of the comets and the minnow for 2 years now, the other comet 1 year. We ve got mollies, guppys, tetras, kuhli loaches, shrimp, sparkling guorami but the only one who seems to have as much personality as the goldfish is the ADF! The minnow - 'fisher' likes swimming around...

Yeh thinking about 1/2 Borneo plecos (sometimes called hillstream loaches?). Waiting for shop to get some in. We had one before but had a filter disaster and he perished :( seemed to quite upset the goldfish actually, they were very down for a couple of days after! I love them to bits - they...

After insisting we weren't going to buy any more fish/fish stuff we decided to get our comet goldfish and feeder fish (minnow) a bigger tank .... And they love it! And while in the pet shop today we found a little Panda moor (new breed of moor apparently) and he was so cute we couldn't leave him...

Not too sure - I think that if you want to keep stem plants you'll need to have CO2 in your tank, but you can use moss/anubias/ferns if you do not plan to inject CO2. Good info source : Setting up a new Freshwater Shrimp Aquarium .:. Information on how to successfully set up a Shrimp Aquarium

You could do just plants - hone your aquarium gardening skills! Could do a shrimp tank - I love them; this is a cool one Redirect Notice

New arrivals came today :D They are all settled in, will be trying to get pictures later! Got some Kuhli Loaches and a sparkling Guorami to go with the Teenage Silver Mollys (they're growing up :D) - the Guorami is schooling with the Mollys already! Finally managed to get some African Dwarf...

Hi, we are wanting to replace our 30l Biorb (as it is not a very good aquarium at all - did get us started with fish keeping though so can't complain about it too much:s) and were wondering if anyone in the South West of the UK had a 30-40 litre tank for sale? Cheers!

Thankyou :D I love goldfish, they have great personalities!

Thankyou! I love goldfish, they do have awesome personalities - each one is different, they all like different things and they all really like each other - when we first put them in the new tank they would only move in a group! @Fishman - won them! (which I thought you couldn't do in the UK...

Direct Tropicals - Buy Tropical Fish Online! - think they are in Wales as well, so not far away

Our baby silver mollys are now ~8 weeks (or at least 8 weeks since i spotted them for the first time!). They are about 2cm (0.8 inches) at the moment. We are getting 2 dwarf african frogs at some point, and obv. want to wait until the mollys are big enough not to get eaten; basically, how big...
