i was once advised not to use hot water from the tap when doing wc. I normally fill a bucket with water then letting it come to room temp either overnight or over a few hours before WC. I've not had many issues with that but would any one know why the hot water tap is not recommended?

i have successfully breed Bettas in more than 12" of water, however the bubble nest was a little unstable as any movement was amplified at the surface

I want to see pictures!!!!

Still wanting pictures :D

i think we need to see the Finish product!!

Be careful i don't know much about bumblebee goby but i once had a Neon Tetra that choke to death with a blood worm :(

very good advice there Darrel, i was going to write something similar but you beat me to it, Dean if you need a microworm culture one you set to go let me know and ill revive mine and send you some they are great protein source for betta or in fact for any type of fry!

what you need to know i have bred some in the past

^^^ :thumbup: Same as Above ^^^^

i haven't tried, not sure how accurate my test kit is i been looking to buy one of them Ebay PH pen for £8 are they any good?

not sure what you mean by this? If you asking in term of water parameter then i don't know much about but what i go know is that the PH lever of my tap water is quite high, i believe it to be something like 7.8 to 8. something which if i'm right makes it quite hard water. Temperatures i'm yet...

Thanks for the advice dean, i like the fish in the video specially the light blue ones are they "Pseudotropheus soulosi" I just been reading through this page and looking at the different species and picture and have complied a list of fish that i like the look of but also they don't seem to...

how did you get on?

i was looking to get the marine look with the bright coloured fish, but i'm starting to believe that the tank wouldn't be big enough im not fussed about breeding them. the maturing of the thank is not a problem, i was planning on adding them in groups as i heard about their territorial behaviour

Im live next to stansted airport but dnt mind traveling upto 1hour. In terms of landscape im thinking of a wall of stones and caves but not quite worked that out yet. Thinking maybe some ocean rock i already have a bag of coral gravel!

i will be setting up a 3ft tank for a group of lake malawi cichlids, however im not sure which species would be best to keep, i would like some of the most colourful ones "not sure on the names" also could some one tell me how many i can stock in a 3ftL x 12"w x 14"h, with 1 internal interpet...

I feed mine on microworms as they are rich in proteins and i always have cultures on the go

when was you last water change? if i where you i would do a water change now as using airline tubing, the reason why is if the female has not released the eggs then it will give the male a chance to re build it if it gets disturbed, the eggs will hatch with in a couple days normally then they...

yes sits normal, they will use any material available. i have bred dwarf gouramis and bettas before and while the bubble nest was floating i managed to do some water changes by syphoning the water using airline tubing, it took a while to do but it ensures that the water doesn't go down too...

i have 2 sword tails females that also do the same but the are healthy, ill go with what MARKCOUSINS said turn the filter off and observe their behaviour, if they go to the surface as seem like they are gasping for air it might be that they are using the current created by the filter to take in...
