  2. How Many Guppies? 29gal

    The guppies are endler cross, so they’re small and have smaller tails than a guppy but they’re endler colours . I was thinking 15 guppies but when they’re in the tank it doesn’t seem like many fish! Also my filter is wayyy more than what I need. Recon I’ll get away with a slight overstocking?
  3. How Many Guppies? 29gal

    Hey guys! So.... I caved in haha. I’m restarting my 39 gal as a guppy tank. Now I’ve had gupipies in the past, also had this tank running for 7 years. I’ve bought a couple endler guppy crosses and have them in my smaller tank currently- also have a couple females which will stay in the...
  4. Is There A Livebearer Fry Gender Reveal Disappointment Support Group?

    I’ve had many times when the babies have been a gender that disappointed me I wanted to keep a REALLY pretty girl guppy but I kept her two brothers and couldn’t keep her in case of inbreeding! I was sooooo disappointed
  5. Goldfish That Looks Dirty?

    Pics please my goldfish used to scare me at first... I would wake up and she would have a black patch on her side and then it would disappear. Turned out her scales were just changing colour as she got older (she ended up with black patches all over and then she went gold again!). They’re still...
  6. How did you start your fishkeeping hobby?

    I started because my friend was giving away a 29 gal tank. I did intend to fix it and sell it (it needed new rubber and the lighting re-wired after the wires melted). When looking for the parts needed I ended up glued to watching fish and one day (without even having the tank set up!) I went and...
  7. I'm Going Away For A Week With No One To Watch My Fish

    My fish were less than an inch big the tab goes kinda mushy and they pick bits off it’s a bit like a sinking tab for algae eaters but it sticks on the tank
  8. New Freshwater Aquarium, cycling

    When cycling my tank I couldn’t get any ammonia in there. I fed the fish and turned the filter down. Fed the fish 2 small amounts a day and left it slow running for 3 days and I started building ammonia!
  9. I'm Going Away For A Week With No One To Watch My Fish

    You can buy fish tank feeding tabs... stick them inside the tank and the fish will pick at it! I used it when I went away for a week and my fish were just fine
  10. Am I Allowed To Quit?

    So that’s best for you! What’s best for you is also what’s best for your fish! I had one tank (my 29 gal) and everything seemed to be going wrong and I felt like giving up for good. I already had two smaller tanks from a while ago and thought to myself “no, I’m going to care for the fish I love...

  12. Tank Upgrade - suggestions on smaller desktop 5 gallon tanks

    I have this one from pets at home with my Betta in... it fits on my window sil so takes up very little room! It’s a 5 gal didn’t come with a filter but does have a good LED light
  13. Does My Betta Have Swim Bladder?

    On the filter front... I use a marina i25 for my 6 gal Betta tank. It’s fab! Agitates the surface and has a slow flow so doesn’t cause any swimming issues. I’ve also found the tank seems to cycle (in my experience) pretty well with this filter as it has a lot of surface area for BB. I had a...
  14. Tank Backgrounds... What Shall I Have?

    That’s why this is a foam background... there’s no reflection for him to flare at! I used black card for a while but it caused havoc haha! Now the natural sunlight is gone the white looks quite nice. The only problem I have with black also is that the wood is still releasing tannins (it’s been...
  15. Tank Backgrounds... What Shall I Have?

    HI guys... So here’s my Betta tank. I want a nice background for it (currently just have a white background) but I’m not sure what to have or whether to just leave it white! What do you all think?

  18. Please Help With Sick Betta

    I would remove the snail (salt will kill it ) and do a tsp of aquarium salt per gallon in the tank. Leave for a day and then do small water changes over a week and see for an improvement. Don’t put the snail in until your sure all the salt is gone
  19. Please Help With Sick Betta

    Cotton wool disease it looks like... can normally be treated with salt baths or malachite green. Please wait for someone to confirm what I’m saying. A salt dip is easy to do... I followed these instructions Salt Baths
  20. Substrate Or No Substrate For Betta Tank?

    It’s probably not necessary to remove the fish but it’s just a habit I have now. Also... I have Cory cats who swish the sand but I don’t want to stir the sand with them in the tank in case they get covered by sand the live plants are ow so rooted in the tank that it’s hard to stir properly so I...
