Definitely doesn't seem to be any bullying going on and from what I can spot of them at feeding time (with me hiding discreetly) they seem healthy. We have a python cleaner so substrate is cleaned weekly so that leaves new additions leaving them insecure. Although the gouramis seem shy and...

Is definitely on our list of things to do. But suppose I suppose we've been putting it of cos it seems a lot of hard work keeping plants alive as well as fish. Lol. .......might start a new thread for advice on best/easy plants to start with Sent from my SM-G800F using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Sorry sent too quick. Yip 8. Mix of 3 stebras, 3 bronze and 2 albinos. I know corys are best in groups of 6+ but should I not have mixed? The stebras seem ok and come out but it's the others who have went scared! Sent from my SM-G800F using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Nitrates are a constant 5, sorry didn't use commas when writing my parameters, the nitrites were 0. W/c once a week 30/40% . gouramis seem to have settled a bit and pop out a bit more so im not worried about them. It's the drastic change in my corys I'm concerned about. I'm stumped :confused...

Over 2 weeks later and they still duck and dive when they see me!! Hardly ever come out now. Still no takers for an explanation???! Posting again to bring thread back up the line in the hope someone who hasn't seen it will know why corys have changed. Only reason I can think is coping the new...

What you think of red tail in with the tetras? I though they shouldn't be together cos shark would bully them? Sent from my SM-G800F using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Was gonna give him some of my filter media to help and ive a api kit to test. told him to buy no fish til stabilised with water and the heating on track. I'm surprised the fish are still alive in cold water if they are meant to be tropical. Will the move back to heated tank be ok for fish if...

Yes think your right. Looks like a buenos aires. Previous owner obviously didnt give a hoot cos its in with a redtail shark and in cold water! Im relatively new to fish keeping but I thought red tail would not be a good match with tetras? Ive advised him to get heater and slowly increase to get...

My brother has been given a tank with fish, however we're unsure what this fish is. So can you help? Sent from my SM-G800F using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I put a cube in every few days but the greedy ones on the top and middle always get it all so my corys and plec never get any. Do you have bottom dwellers and if so do they get share of the frozen cube? Sent from my SM-G800F using Aquarium Advice mobile app
