Have a tank of tiger barbs. Several are very heavy with eggs but don't seem to be showing any signs of pairing off etc. will the females just release them or will they absorb them. One female in particular is so large she is starting to have difficulty swimming. I've done plenty reading on the...

My fluval 305 external doesn't seem to be kicking out much water. Cleaned it all, anything else I should check? or should I change the impeller, impeller shaft or both.?

My fry tanks are comin along. Angels, White cloud minnows, mollies, platys and guppies (still working on the neons and tiger barbs). Anyone know at what age the livebearers will reach sexual maturity?

After discovering clear eggs, the size of a grain of sand, I now discover I have some hatched White cloud minnows. I cannot believe how small these fry are. They are like a tiny shard of glass. I'm currently struggling with getting baby angels to feed even with live brine shrimp, so how the...

Have a small spare tank. Was gonna put gravel in it and bring on some plants. Should I heat it, as I would be intending moving them to tropical tanks once larger? Presume it fill need some sort of filter/aeration. ?

My new tank is possibly showing signs of stabilising. After worrying about survival of the pair of angels that came with it, they are now heavily defending the corner with the filter tube, cleaning it from top to bottom in prep for eggs. I called previous owners who said every 2 weeks or so...

Once my main tank has cycled and levels are good, I intend having 3 small tanks nearby for quarantine, fry and hospital tank. I thought of using water from my main tank to set them up. Is this a good idea. Also, the small tanks will have minimal gravel and no live plants, will levels hold or...
