    I read that the rainbow fish will school with other groups, if only a pair is introduced? Was that false info? They do seem to school a bit with the harlequins? We have just moved our bearded dragon to another room, so now we have a large space for a big tank. I'm going to save up for a...

    Here's an update from yesterday... My ram died :( I dont know why, either does the LFS.? Our water seemed good for him, low ph and tested good in the shop? I think he had a swim bladder issue because it was as if he kept sinking, he had no bright colouring either when we bought him, I reckon he...

    Forgot to say as well the ammonia is a separate test kit and it is the nutrafin liquid test. I will buy the liquid tests for the rest on Monday. They are expensive here, 50 euro! Sent from my iPad using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

    Is my water ok?

    Thanks for the help. I think the tank is still in its first cycle. Only had it 3 weeks now. I did the 50% change and I will do the next tomorrow as well. I have api stress coat which says it is a tap water conditioner so I used that. I didn't use my moms water, I had thought it would help...

    Brown Algae Problem

    I have just had the same problem in my tank. I used a magnet for the sides and a toothbrush straight out of the packet to rub it off the heater and silk leaves. Sent from my GT-I9100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

    betta tank mate

    My new betta seems to get along just fine with my neon blue dwarf gourami.? The gourami was curious at the start but didnt go close enough to nip him. Since that they are just happily swimming in close proximity to each other. :) Sent from my GT-I9100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

    So we went to pick up my German blue ram which they ordered for me as a centre piece fish. He has done quite a lot of hiding but does come out to explore a bit occasionally. I've called him bam bam :) He's not very blue though? Same with the gourami when we got him, so hopefully he will...

    Thanks for all the help and compliments. Great news! We have 2 babies! After just 1 week of owning a fish tank! :D They are half a cm long now, I have no idea if they were bred in the tank or may a fish have been already pregnant when I bought them in the shop? I'm just thinking about the...

    Just a bit of an update, I have decided to scrap the planted tank idea, until the future when I have a bit more knowledge and &euro; to spend on proper plant set ups. So since I last posted we have done a re-arrange and added our first fish who all seem really happy and active. Took my...

    Neon Tetra, bulging belly?

    We got the tetras on Monday. Since, they seem to be chasing each other quite viciously and sort of dancing in pairs, swimming around the other fish in tight circles. Today we noticed one of the tetras had a bulging belly. So were they mating and the fish is pregnant? Or the tetra has eaten too...
