Doh! I should have noticed too :oops:

Sounds like a huge amount to me!?

Yeah....I'll pass :lol:

Anyone know how readily available in the UK these are? Same genus as rainbow shiners but I've only ever seen those for sale once.

4 times a day. Overfeeding not a problem it's all plant food.

From MA in Iver. The dorsal looks a hundred times better, plus the colour has come back. This tail has just thrown me! He's still feeding well, active and building bubble nests. I guess I'll just keep up with the regime and keep an eye on him.

23l, 200lph internal, 27c, 7.5ph, fully planted, 50% Wc a week, dosing with easy carbo 1ml every two days and micro/macro ferts 5ml each a week. Will get pics.

Well, I think I have. Dodgy water in a batch of daphnia. No recent Ph rises in tap water, temp has remained the same, filters cleaned, parameters all good, nitrates rarely get over 10ppm. He's been making bubble nests constantly which suggest to me he can't be doing too badly? Gill, The milky...

So last week I treated my Betta for fin rot, all seemed to be improving, the milky white/red colour has completely gone and his dorsal fin looks much better. But, now there's milky white parts on his tail. Is this a sign of it coming back? Should I dose again, it's been 7 days? Worried in Middlesex

Not really a rainbow fan but I do really love those Arus.

Are they easy to get hold of? Have decided on some for my NPT Riparium. It's 29 Uk Gallons.

Have you tried MA in Iver? Is that near enough? I was there today and they had a few Gouramis, didn't have a detailed look however but maybe give them a call.

That's what makes them F1, no? If they weren't tank bred from wild caught parents they'd just be "wild caught".

Fish will also seem ridiculously cheap after buying dart frogs.

I've had my betta 3 months 8)

Probably better off with some Cardinals or something then. Shame, I really like Tiger Barbs but I'd want some clean up crew aswell.

Thankyou. I was thinking a large shoal of barbs would help but I have no experience of otos.

Would this be a safe mix?

Still love them. Just beautiful in real life. I'm a big barb fan in general.

I thought they looked dull as hell online but saw a huge display tank today at Hillingdon MA. I desperately want some now!

Homeopathic can work, but purely due to the placebo effect, which should never be underestimated. There is no peer reviewed study demonstrating effectiveness beyond the level you would expect for a placebo. But anyway, going way off topic! I know more about homeopathy than EI :lol:

But EI isn't homeopathy for plants :/ Homeopathy works on the principle that the more diluted something is the more potent it is, plus a few magic shakes. Anything homeopathic isn't dangerous purely because it's diluted to such an extent that it may aswell just be water. I've just looked up...

Of course, obviously the preferred solution would be soft water fishes in soft water, but if plenty of people aren't having problems, them perhaps the issue needs looking into further to establish what is causing issues for those with soft water fish in hard conditions.

Homeopathy isn't dangerous because there's nothing in it.

Anecdotes aren't evidence, although they can give us a good indication of what we should be testing. How would you isolate the different factors to determine it's harder water that causes problems?

I live in hard water central and never had a problem with cardinals or neons.
