Thank you, I am really loving the cherry shrimps. They are amazing. So far they are staying alive so I am not sure what I am doing right -...
It's basically glutaraldehyde - it's a form of sanitiser so it doesn't really bother the filters or fertilisers. Google will be your best friend...
LOL I am the same - I dose when I remember... I got so much going on, which is why my tank looks like it is. I even forget water changes and...
This needs a daily dose of liquid carbon and a straight hard dose of hydrogen peroxide from a syringe - I usually put 6mls straight on the spot...
@Shabir I am sure I know you. Are you the young man that used to live in Durban, I think near the beach or something?
That looks awesome, @Shabir. A little minor trim will just do it justice, don't rescape it. It is lovely!!! I found that using liquid carbon...
Wow. Apparently these are the red and blue cherry shrimps - the lady said she had both blue and red separate and she had some cross-breeding, so...
What he said. Supplement their food with wafers and you should be ok. I was struggling with mine not feeding off the algae so I ended up with...
I had the same problem until I saw one of mine covered in white spots and the same for some of the other fish too. I treated the whole tank for...
If you pay a little more, the quality is usually better than the cheaper ones. They'll last you a good long time before you need to replace...

So I lost one of the ottos a few days ago - it was struggling to swim and acting lethargic as well. It also seemed to have stopped eating as well...
So an update, it's been 2.5 weeks since I got the new fish and they're all still alive. I went about a week ago and bought one big corgette...
so 2 days later and all the fish are still alive and accounted for. It seems that two of the otos have settled in well - they go crazy all over...
Fair enough, I'll have a look at the LFS in York when I go up there next time.
I read they burrow under the gravel and I can’t have that because I have DHG carpeting on the gravel
I agree, I couldn't believe how stunning they looked when I had the tank lights off - their coat has an iridescent glow and the colours showed up...
I also assumed that as the one wood had been left outside for a while and it got boiled before I put it back in the tank - the same for the tree...
I did some research last night and this morning, I came to one option I could try as a last resort as I’m trying to avoid using panacur as it’ll...
