I am in the process of trying to decide what to stock my 10g planted tank with and tbh I really don't have any idea as I don't really have any experience with this size tank or just planted tanks in general so I really don't know where to start when it comes to choosing the correct fish for this...

I have a 58 gallon tropheus tank and today I found a baby! I've only found one so far so I think it may be just the one in there being the first batch of fry for the colony. The funny thing is that I never even knew that any of my tropheus were holding so to find the baby fry was a pleasant...

I've recently noticed a distinctive black mark on the dorsal fin of one of my cobalt blue zebras, it has been acting fine around my other fish so i dont think it is a case of bullying, unfortunately I don't have a photo o the mark but I'm wondering if anyone has any idea what the mark might be

I've just bought 9 baby Mbuna cichlids for my new 55g tank but I also have 3 larger older mbunas in my old tank, is it okay to put these older mbunas in with the new younger mbunas or should I wait until they have grown a bit?

Hey guys, I've recently setup my 55 gallon cichlid tank so I thought it might be a good idea to sign up and get a few ideas/opinions from everyone. I've only been keeping fish for the past 6 months so there's probably a lot I don't know about but am certainly open to any tips or ideas that all...
