Hi all. I recently went round to my sisters and noticed that her tank was in need if a major clean up.

Hi all. I've just been given a 15g tank with lights and filter. I'm going to start getting it set up and was wondering if it is worth using the old sponge to help with the cycle. Would this be achievable or should I get a new one and start from scratch? Thanks One day at a time

Hi. I currently have a ebjd in my 29g tank on his own. I believe he had an eye problem as I have had to teach him to take sinking pellets in a certain spot in the tank. He does try to get other food but when he strikes for it he misses! I was wondering if it would be possible to put in some...

I've recently acquired an electric blue jack dempsey. He's about 1.1/4" long now and I've had him about 3 weeks. His growth rate is rather slow compared to a parrot cichlid that I bought at the same time. They are both in a community tank at the moment and doing fine. They are both moving on to...
