Thanks everyone. Im still not sure what to do now. I dont want to leave her alone. Im not sure I want to risk buying another one in case they hate each other and then their stuck together. I...

Hi guys, its been a while since Ive been on.

I return with bad news. I had a breeding (was hoping) pair of Red and Gold Pigeons. One of them (the male I think) hasnt been looking good for a few...

I think I was at Phillip Island that same weekend, didnt see that sign though. Its pretty funny :)

Ive only had mine spawn once, but it seemed like over 300!.........didnt actually hatch though, so I guess it doesnt count :(

Well with my best attempts to try and measure them through the glass, my Gold Ram was roughly 4cm. I have two Blue Rams that are at least 1/2 cm big than that and the female which is probably...

Yes I know, the algae is a problem. Most of the plants are permanently stained with it now and you cant get it off. I havent got a test kit for phosphate, but I was thinking of getting something to...

Their the same thing. Their called Tetra Colourbits. The company is Tetra, the product is Colourbits.
Im not sure how much the colour is meant to get better as they get older, thats why I wanted...

It seems that sometimes they breathe from both and sometimes from one. I think it depends how infested a particular gill is. I'd be dosing for gill flukes though to make sure.

Sounds like gill flukes to me. You treat them with prazi. You can buy that as Aquamaster Tapeworm and Gill Fluke tablets, they are meant to be a good brand.

Two more :)

Hi guys,

I wasnt sure wether this goes in here or in Photo Album, but......

Here are some pics of my Blue Rams I've had for about 2 months now. I was wondering if some other people could post...

Theres no discus in this tank. I saw them in quarantine at the shop for a while, but I might give it a go anyway. Only problem is that I only have one spare tank that doesnt have anything in it, so...

Hi guys,

I am wanting to add maybe 2 small angels and 2 dwarf gouramis to my display tank. It currently has blue rams, gold rams, cardinals, bristle nose and black widows.
Do you reckon they...

Would be great in a show tank!" - prodigydiscus


I agree :) Its a pity their illegal here though :(
I wouldnt enjoy...

Hey guys,

If you want to reduce the size of your pics from the digital camera heres what I do.

1. Open the pic from the camera in MS Paint.
2. Go to Image: Stretch/Skew
3. In the Stretch bit...

......The good looking fish hang out with the good looking people ;)

Thanks :)

But Im hardly a pro. It is just the result of being on this site like 2-3 times day :lol:

I know that they feed 4 times a day, but how long does the food in them last? Like if you went on holiday, could you set it to feed 3 times a day for 2 weeks for example? ie. how often do you have...

Hi phishphood,

To try and answer some of your questions......

1. Yes 60 gallons is more than enough for a breeding tank. The rule of thumb is 1 adult discus to 10 gallons, so you could have 6...

So more light is better against algae?

I have heard people say you leave your lights on too long, and then I have heard people say you need more light. So which is it?

I think my light...

are they stuck there, or just too heavy to be sucked up? It could be the metal balls from the thermometer if they are not stuck there. If they are stuck I have no idea.

Yeah thats a sunfish. I guess the shape is similarish.
I think they also hold the record for the most eggs laid. I think they lay something like 2 million eggs in one go..........Imagine discus...

Blue Green Algae is not really actually algae at all, it is cyanobacteria. Im not sure that it grows in fish tanks though.

I have a major algae problem in my tank at the moment. I seem to have...

You couldnt have a dome top because the water has to run towards the centre to drip in the centre piping. A dome would mean the water runs to the outside edges. A drum would also not be the best...

You could try doing an old science experiment from when I was a kid. It was the one to get clean drinking water from mud.

You could get an old ice cream container or such and fill it with the old...
