Thanks folks, poor Elvis has left the building but is not forgotten! My bluetail guppys tail has disappeared to a point and he struggles to stay afloat, have done a major water change, and clean, added some Melafix, is that okay?

Betta sadly passed away, replaced him with a bunch of guppies!

Well only one guppy really. My blue tail male guppy has somehow lost his tail and seems to have trouble floating what's the matter with him? And what can I do about it? He really is on his last leg (eek!). He was so pretty and now he can't even stay afloat, He is in a tank with one small...

Well at first I just took them for tiny air bubbles from my pump, but on observation, they didn't move with the flow of the other air bubbles. Almost like jumpy little grains of salt.... How else can I describe them, I can barely see them!

This is crazy, i changed my tank but didn't clean the plants before I put then in with my new gravel and setup now I keep finding baby snails every other day!! Little buggers are everywhere, I keep fishing them out and flushing them away but every other day I find another! Ahhhh!!

My 10g Aquael bow front tank with 6 Rasbora Harlequins and Male Betta 'Elvis' Any decor tips? I have since added a red leaf plant to the right hand side to give my betta some more shade. Some tacky glow in the dark pebbles scattered around. What type of light should I get, I like the blue...

I, I've noticed some tiny little white fast moving microbes in my tank! Are they normal? Should they be there?

Hi there, have kept up with water changes and added aquarium salt but he still got worse, I have bought some Melafix ( same as Betamix) and his fins seem a little stronger now and not as brittle looking after a few days of use, hopefully he will get there, thanks very much for your help and advice!

One of my six harlequin rasbora (the only male) keeps swimming along just under the surface of the water as if he is slurping up something or breathing, mouth open, just swimming along as if feeding, but there is nothing there to eat that I can see. I have put some medicine in the water...

Harlequins

What about the fish guys theory about the rasbora biting him?

Please help! My bettas tail looks withered and looks like its kinda 'burned' off for lack of a better description. He's still happy n active, still eating normally. I've upped the number of water changes to see if it makes a difference, so far I can't tell. This was first noticed 3days ago and...

Hey, Thanks a lot! At least I Have an idea of what the problem is now, Will keep you posted

He was perfect when I got him, over the past three days this has happened, after I did my first major water change. I've clipped all the plastic plants as teu were a bit rigid, only soft silk plants remain now, Could it be the water hardness? Or maybe I should do more water changes? Please...

Hi My readings are ammonia 0, Nitrate 70 Nitrite 0 GH 250 Kh 270 pH 8.0 I live in an area with very hard water, could this be a cause ?

I've had my betta for three weeks and today noticed his tail looks a bit shredded, what can it be and how do I sort it? He's quite happy swimming around, there was a live plant which was dying slowly which I have removed today. Please check out the before and after pics to see how his tail has...

It is the same tank. People said I could only have up to 8 rasbora, but I opted to get a betta to go in there, they all live happily. In the stores they have about a hundred fish in an even smaller tank so I don't get why I can't have at least 10 fish in there. I may get some neon tetras and an...

Hi folks, I have a male betta, I have read that they can be compatible with angelfish, is this possible? If so, I want to get an angelfish... Please advise x VIPz

I folks, I posted before but got no replies so trying again... I'm new to betta keeping and jus want someone to tell me my fish looks healthy... Are their heads normally darker and colourless compared to the rest of their body? Please see the pics:-

I bought him a couple of days ago, I'm not very experienced with fish. I had the tank stocked with 6 harlequin rasbora for over 8 weeks now and they are happy and healthy. I added my betta but I don't know anything about their normal appearance. I mean, is it normal their face is darker then...

I think I may have had the current turned up too high for the poor little guy! Have turned it down and he has now ventured out to the middle of the tank a few times.... ;-) Thanks guys I will keep an eye on him and let u kno how it goes!!

Hi there, I bought a betta fish to put it my tank along with my existing 6 harlequins. Day 1 and 2 he was super active and exploring, day three he has stayed by the heater, in the corner by the plants all morning, I'm wondering if something is up with him? Temp is 26c, he does keep swimming...
