Beleive it or not..... I got home last night to find one of my leopard Danios had left us for the spectral plain. I was more alarmed to find out how he'd died....
Jonny, It could be 2 things. The fish dies, and the others considered it as food. In that case you should have also seen the fins missing?? Were they? Another ...
H'lo, Does the exploding stomach have anything to do with egg-binding? I read about the subject somewhere, and the cause was stated to be poor nutrition. Joe...
Well Joe, I also cannot recall where I had read this. But it was a long time ago. It so happens that the females develop eggs on a regular basis. If the eggs...
I highly doubt it exploded. Be wild to see though... Chances are that the other fish got to it after it died and ate the softest part. "I'm damaged and I like...
Hey rob, my eel is so placid he never goes after any of the fish, he will eat cleaner shrimp though ;-( . the most aggresive fish in the tank is probably my...
Thank you very much! I'll look into all of these. Looking through our yellow pages I'm not finding too much in ther way of decent LFS. :>( ... From: Dan &...
Hi All, My angels have yet spawned again. This is probably the 5th time and now they are aggressively protecting them. They already battered my large female ...

Thanks Amalthea, The tank is very heavily planted. There is no way I can put a tank separator. Do you think If I move the parents and the eggs to a different ...
yeah, they probably will eat them from the stress. i think you might do better to just accept the loss and move the angels to another tank and wait for them to...
After reading this post, I was curious and started searching on google for a description of what it¹s for. Seems to be a trick to bring out the latent...
Hi Everyone!!!. Anyone know how to sex apple snails?. We have 3 in our tank and last night
we noticed about 100 babies on the side of the tank some in the...
If they are like the majority of other snails then they aren¹t sexable. Snails are usually hermaphrodite. 2 snails will fire a dart at each other to pregnate...
Apple snails are not hermaphrodite. They exist as Males and Females, but I don't think you can sex them visibly. Only if you take them out of the shell can you...

Maybe I'm dense, and not understanding quite what you mean, but why would

many people use two different filters, there's really nothing wrong with doing it, and also, you don't HAVE to have special substrate for many plants. i have...
