    Blue appearing on rocks

    Thanks for your link....I can't believe it, I do water changes every week and dont over feed. The plants I buy are from the fish shop, you would think that they would be okay. The tank I have the problem has clown loaches, will the antibiotic hurt them?

    How do you do effective water changes in LARGE aquariums?

    I bought a 75 litre container, put it on trolley, put a small bilge pump in the container, with hose that would reach into my tank, connected it up to a small battery and viola, tank filled in 2 minutes.To remove water from the tank, I just siphon it out the closest window. Sent from...

    Help! Unknown white marks on my Black Moor

    Hi J, the API test kits are the best, if you get a master kit, that will have everything in it you need to test for. Are the white patches like grains so sand, is the fish rubbing itself like its itchy? Could be Ich. Do your other fish have any white spots? Sent from anteatergoanna's burrow

    Water sprite

    3rd angel on the fritz

    Stringy white poo? Sounds like internal parasite. I had the same thing not long ago, I used Waterlife Sterazin. I love the Waterlife products, they don't hurt the plants and I am led to believe that they don't kill off the BB, they are also good to use if you have Clown Loaches or scaleless fish...

    Cycling with shrimp ? ?

    Hi fellow fishies, I am new to the whole shrimp thing. I've got 2 cycled fish tanks, if I take media from all filters and use tank water ( only have 25 Ltr tank for shrimp), can I put the shrimp straight in the tank, or are they hardy enough to go into a un- cycled tank. Any tips and hints would...
