I'm in the UK too!

Glo-fish, parrot fish, flowerhorns, fancy goldfish that are so deformed they can't swim properly. A couple of years ago I would have put polypterus and Rift Valley cichlids on the list but now I'm poly obsessed and have a tank dedicated to shell dwellers. So, never say never I guess!

A few months ago I got 21 hovering zebra loaches which are wonderfully entertaining. The Javanese ricefish they are in with are one of my very favourite fish. They weren't a good combination btw.

I recently got 3 pearl gouramis. I've never kept them before but they caught my eye in the LFS and filled the criteria I had so I thought I would get them. For a few days I was really regretting it as they hid all the time but then they suddenly decided I was alright or that the tank was safe...

Multi's are lovely little fish with interesting behaviour and breeding habits. Very easy to look after too.

OK, so you watched a video entitled 'Aquariums saved my life (emotional).' with a thumbnail that said '3 years in prison' and 'arrested for attempted murder' and thought it was going to be a tank build? Curious. Joey has been asked many times to share his back story, a cursory glance through...

I've watched some of Taylor Nicole Dean's video's but hate the way she acts (I assume it is an act) dumb. I much prefer Jenny from Solid Gold but I hate those damn fish! How can she just carry on giggling about how "cute" they are? They are so deformed they can hardly swim, it horrifies me.

I have two tanks which are unlit and in a position where they get quite a bit of natural light although not direct. Over the summer months I get brown algae in the tanks. Over a number of years they have had substrate, no substrate, big messy fish, light stocking of a few small fish, no fish...

I have a tank of multies and actually find that there is little build up of debris. They keep the area around their shells very clean so any dirt is moved into a pile away from them. Mostly I just clean the filter and do water changes.

I think in your position I would scrub the driftwood well and then see if I could smell incense on it, if so I would soak it until I couldn't smell it anymore.

I used chopsticks for feeding my Oscars, worked great!

I'm really sorry to read about this, a very unfortunate accident :-(

I had the same issue and separating the two permanently proved to be the only answer.

I haven't tried this myself but it seems a good idea;

I currently have nine living together. I got them at a couple of months old just over a year ago. They are in a 4 x 2 x 2 with four poly's. So far they are fine together. After meal times they seem to bicker for a bit but no ones getting hurt. There are lots of caves, nooks and crannies in...

After forgetting to switch equipment back on a few times myself, I now set an alarm on my phone, timed to go off roughly an hour after I expect to finish the water change which reminds me to double check I've switched everything back on.

Thank you, you are quite right! I guess I should have done a search first but I've honestly never heard of or seen of these tests before, must have been walking around with my eyes shut lol

I'm interested in keeping some gobies that apparently require a high oxygen content in their water but I don't know how I would ascertain whether my setup has enough. Is there a way to measure it? If so, does anyone know of a scale which I can compare it to?

I'm sorry you have to do this but they will be OK.

He was talking about building a tank for Frank in his bedroom. I'm not sure whether that plan has been signed off by his wife though lol
