That's a pretty unusual pattern for a hi-fin/sailfin pleco... normally it's more "spots" than "squiggles".
Welcome. I've been seeing Endler's guppies more and more often these days, so keep an eye out for those. I find those to be a very attractive...
Durban hit a "chilly" 19 degrees recently. My tanks that don't have heaters running only dropped down to 22 degrees... It's this reason why I'm...
Colours and intensity can change according to stress level, excitement, sleep, or a host of other factors, and even to some extent depending on...
Hi all I realised that I don't often share what's going on my side of things, although a lot of what I'm doing right now are breeding projects so...
As said above, you shouldn't need to add anything. Fiddling with parameters tends to do more harm than good, unless you really know what you're...
Many canisters use a basket-type system. I've only ever used Eheim and Dophin personally, and worked with Tetra, and all had a similar internal...
The problem with efficient algae eaters is... what about afterwards? If you have enough algae growing in a tank to sustain algae eaters long term,...
I can't help with sourcing, although I can't imagine this species ever being rare among aquarists. Hopefully someone will answer soon. I don't...
This video has been doing the rounds a lot recently, over the past few months. He's pretty much as close as anyone is going to get to an aquatic...
I get why you wouldn't want to name names, but flaunting illegal fish online doesn't help the case - people will see his example and want to...

@MariaS is right, swimbladders aren't present in all fish. It depends on whether a species uses it or not - many bottom dwellers have no use, tuna...
Hmmm... this is an interesting idea. As was discussed in the thread linked to you above, the pH does not appear drop significantly with the...
Is there any particular reason for wanting only 500mm? The extra height means extra volume, which is always welcome in my books. If you want to...
Is this fish actually getting a fair share of food? I know you said you saw it eating (a little), but would you say that it is getting as much as...
It depends on the brand, as certain pathogens can survive processing - more specifically, poor processing. Some go through additional treatment...
Cool setup, did you find there was benefit to growing it in a fish tank, as opposed to in a plastic tub or bottle? Is this more cost effective...
Have they been swimming freely for a week? If so, they have been eating. Fry otherwise die from starvation rapidly - we're talking periods of...
These worms do vary in size, but offer similar nutritional value. It's handy when you've got very small fry, and then use each culture to progress...
