Swelling under the scales, definitely. The biggest swelling looks as if some of his flesh has broken through the scales.
Sorry - to add to this, the fish doesn't seem to be affected much by whatever this thing is. He's had for a few days now but eats normally and is...
Hi guys, I'm desperately hoping someone can help me. My fish seem to have some sort of parasite. The affected fish is an Emperor Tetra and his...
Hi, I would check out Northlands Pets (Northlands Pets). They're probably the best stocked LFS. Cheers, Gordon
Thanks Jason. No prob with posting a pic, just need to take one. Will only be able to do so tonight. I'll give the LFS a call and see what sort...
Hi Jason, There are 5 x 10cm sized Discus, 3 x Blue Rams & about 30 small tetras. The tank's very lightly stocked. How do I add an airstone...

Nice one! I've never used any of the commercial substrates, but I've only heard good things about Flourite. I think it lasts forever, so, as...

Hi @TankMaster Nature's Petland normally stocks. I think they are about R80 per KG. Cheers, Gordon

If you're up to wiring them yourself then you buy t5 globes & ballasts from Lamphouse. The ballasts are really easy to wire. I made my own end...
