Tx for the nice comments! The fish are from a lfs here, they have a few sources of breeders for their fish now so quality has improved alot. In the case of these guys I think it was a Melbourne...

G'day, the discus that were causing me to lose sleep have now settled in a lot more as predicted by the seasoned veterans that gave me advice. I dont know the actual names of the types (if any), 2 of...

I've had similar problems (posted header of newbie woes) with my first 3 discus but now they come out a lot more and are eating again but it did take almost 10 days. As an incentive to coax them I...

Not sure on what the reason is unfortunately. I had similar with neons and eventually had just a few left. They also had malformed mouths so its possible it was genetic defects. The scale damage...

The uv isnt part of the main filter, its a stand alone unit. When my eheim started playing up I went for a fluval fx5, not even sure a uv can be fitted to those but if so it would be a pond size I...

G'day, I plan on getting another 3 discus but apart from no cash just at the moment I was wanting theses ones to settle in a bit before I added any more.
Along with a new lighting regime I've put...

As expected another problems cropped up allbeit minor this time. I'm getting a fair bit of algae floating on top of the water and unsure on a solution to it. I know its a case of lighting and...

Its taken 6 months of saving then 2 months of getting things ready so bit of a downer just at the moment with things but I do know it will be worth it. Not been a great time for my fish projects of...

Tx Scott, will get some shrimp tomorrow and see if I can get them eating. Today they are all hiding in the middle back part of the tank, looks like a roller coaster of them getting used to things. I...

Bit of an update. The 3 fish are still very much alive and kicking and my initial panic seems to have been premature. Although they still wont eat yet they want to so I dont think it will be too...

Thanks for the advice, I'm probably as stressed as the fish at the moment :-).

Thanks Bob, will go do the change. They are alert but scared so hopefully they will get used to me. I got too used to keeping rift lake cichlids I think, with them it was ok you got me in my new...

I had been wondering if I should get one of these for my 4x2x2 but thought the flow would knock the fish and plants around a lot. I asked about it on another forum and then went back to the manual to...

Thanks for the input Oonallee. Fairly sure that unless your wanting to breed and/or the fish were raised in lower ph water than 7.2 shouldnt be an issue. I only use ph down so dropping it a little...
