I have had mine almost 3 weeks now and they are looking great. Lots of plants in the tank as well as a few threadfin and blue eye rainbowfish....
I also got 4 about 3 weeks ago. They fit in really well. They dont seem to be as sensitive as the web suggests. Initially their colour was a bit...
What I always find nice to try is to get about a dozen or so fish and then try to breed them into a nice school. Takes patience but its fun. And...
I agree entirely. Treat the cause, not the symptoms.
Just reread your post. Stop dosing phosphorus. Go to a pharmacy and get salt petre. Then weigh out a gram, dissolve it in water 1000 ml of water....
I had this problem a few months back. Wasnt that difficult to solve. Feed less, increase your nitrates by dosing potassium nitrate and do more...
My biggest irritation is that I cant have more tanks yet. So many plans and so few tanks (only 2). But I just need to be patient. Good things come...
I picked up 4 chocolate gouramis yesterday. All doing well so far

This is classic. I copied the pic and emailed it to the pharmacists at work. Everyone had a good laugh.
I got them from Tropical aquariums in PE. They are a golden colour. Very active. Some of them hang around in a group but there are 2 or 3 that...
I got 9 Pseudomugil Gertrudae - been wanting some for ages. I dont think there are any females though but its quite difficult to tell. They blend...
Mine started when my wife and I were still dating. Her family was moving house and her father had a 100L tank that he was planning on leaving...
Hi Dinky, Use tank water to dissolve the KNO3. Dont add prime to it. Prime will not remove nitrates from the water. It will react with them to...
Well done. Truly a great fish
Do you have a nitrate test kit? What is the current level of nitrates in the tank? You will need to measure it and make sure that there are always...
Just weigh 2 g of salt petre into a 2L bottle and dissolve it completely. Now each ml contains 1 mg of KNO3. So if you add 100 ml of this solution...
Hi Dinky, I had this problem a while back. Basically (from my understanding) is that the ratio of nitrates to phosphates has become unbalanced...
Try an art shop.
I got myself 7 pygmy corys and an upgrade from a 20L to a 25L tank.
