See told you it would be a quick response from these guys ;)

Still no success

He was guarding eggs when I got him so the chap gave me them as well for free which was nice. They hatched, swam and hid under the rocks, then vanished the next day. Guppies will eat anything they can get in their greedy gobs, even their own fry. I will try water changes, any advice on this? Amount/...

Well you learn something new everyday... I was never aware there are any venomous catfish!!??

So got myself a handsome boy couple weeks ago, a boyfriend finally for my girl I've had for about 2 years. He came with eggs, but unfortunately we lost them after hatching (I think my guppies had them) gutted to say the least! When I got him the book said the fact he had eggs showed he was ready to ...

Well ive had a read through, im thinking mine is a female, i always thought she was, and i did call her alice, so at least i dont have to go picking a new name. Thanks again hopefuuly i can find a hansome boy to introduce her too... will let you know how i get on...

Thanks guys, appreciate it. Oh and jools sorry if this in wrong section, wasnt quite sure were to post. X

Basically what the title says... ive only got the one atm, i believe its a bristlenose but has very short bristles, anyway i would love to have a mating couple. I just feel so sorry for it, i mean to pass on your genes is only normal right? if you get what i mean. Anyway im hoping to get some advice...

Well i nipped into pets at home today they only stock the delta therm ones. I think it was a 200w one i needed, cant get it till next week tho. Anyone used that brand ive heard goid and bad things about them...

Omg cant believe i just read that!!! As if you just killed it what the hell?? Why get it if you couldnt look after it, i mean its not like any fish takes alot of care, not like say a child...

Dont know what pump ive got its just a tiny thing that sits outside my tank with a tube into the water with a bubble/air block on end, i was given it by a neighbour with my tank.... anyway it vibrates and make a right racket, i mean really loud, what ive done is simply put it on an old wool glove, b...

Just moved house and new house is colder, my old one kept the tank at around 30°C so never needed a heater, but now im lucky to get it to 24°C. My tank is approx 123ltrs. I need to get a heater. Was wonderung if anyone can recomend one? Tia x

Since repotting my plants into seperate pots as it had spilt into 3, 1 of them has started to wilt slitley. I remember years ago hearing someone say about taking them out of the tank and placing them outside in a bucket of water so it can get natrual sun light. Can anyone confirm if this is a good i...

Somy goldfish are moving home this weekend into a pond as they have now out grown the tank, i will be buying a heater and setting the tank up ready to recieve some guppies, now java plants have started to receive potted plants again i can actually get some more..... Still have my bristlenose, seems ...

Now i just dont Know… Looking im thinking actually more Bristlenose, but as its lacking bristles im guessing Female, going by the pictures ive seen on here the females Appear not to have any?? just need it to stay still enough to get a photo… im trying to find a new home for my goldfish as i would L...

Well ive just popped in some cucumber, for the first time, so will see if i can lore him out lol, the link xou posted just took me to a page of different bristlenose pictures, not moving till the weekend, but i will try the butter tub method, thanks x

Yes, i think it could be a bristle nose, lacking bristles… so im guessing actually female??

Hmm... no, not really, "jamesfish''posted about reclaiming a 2ft he posted some pics that are like him of his fry, ive asked him what they are, my boy just doesnt stay szill long enough to get a photo lol x

They look stunning, but please could you tell me what species they are, i was sold one buy pets at home (i know, i know worst place to buy from, but i dont know any breeders near me) anyway they sold it to me stating it was a butterfly pleco, which it clearly isnt, im waiting for him? to stay still ...

…So just thought ide do a quick search whilst on here…he doesnt look anything like a butterfly…i will have to get some pictures next time he comes out… swims/or rather sucks and.shuffles along the side too fast…

I have brought myself a lovely little (for now) pleco, i was told its a butterfly pleco by pets at home, i know buying from them isnt the best but i currently dont know any reputable breeders near me. Anyway hes (thats a guess) happily been living with my 5 goldies, niether are bothered with each ot...

Not sure what you mean by crown? They are just single stems with single leaves at the top. These are best I could get x

Thanks for the advice, yeah the slabs where what was with it, I've re arranged them to how neighbour had them (as they were just flat) to make a hide at one end then there's little "tunnel" and "cliff" type bits behind a through the others. I know what you mean by the sand my onl...

Hmmm... I just don't know, got 2 in the gravel and 1 in the pot with soil covered with stones, they both seem to be doing fine. What's the best plants to have do you think? Bearing in mind my tank is unheated with the average temp being 24C (22-26) I never knew there was so many! I would like some w...

Ah thankwmyou very much looks like a parva, which is great because they are a bit easier to maintain and aren't overly fussy about how or where they're grown x

Hope you don't mind me posting here - I just wanted to say a big thankyou to Jools and everyone for being so kind and putting up with my non catfish related questions, I know it must be a nuisance. You have all been a great help. It's so hard to find somewhere where you can speak to real people and ...

I know technically It's not fish related but didn't know where else to post this, my neighbour called it an apple plant but I can't find it anywhere so I'm guessing he's got it wrong x

Also the fish don't nibble at it.

I only wish my neighbour had used neutral/natural coloured stones, don't know about you guys but I do like natural looking tanks? What sort of things have you got in your? I will be getting another plant or 2 I think? X

Couple of pictures x

Richard, tony, sorry I've only just seen your posts think I must have skipped over them, there where a lot of others besides the quarts a cereal bowl full of different tumbles, it was just to try and do something to help the water quality and cover the bottom until I had sorted the other tank out. I...
