    I think my Siamese fighter ‘Bob' may be sick his scales around his face look white ,is this white spot? I have no idea if this will work so here goes .Ok it worked for me but the photo isnt that clear so i will try and get a better photo of Bob later
  10. Hi i have just set up my first tank , i started off by adding a few fish at a time , first 6 neons , the following week i bought 6 guppies , the third week (this week ) we have swordtails and also a Siamese fighter .I think the main thing to remember is only to add a small number of fish each week.There are plenty of experts here who i am sure help you out .There are several posting on the same topic and from what i have read just take you time when adding new fish ,keep up with water changes and enjoy your tank
  11.

    new plants

    Hi , how deep should you plant plants ,eg just in the gravel or in the aquatic mix i have . Thanks :lol:
  13. Wow it looks great. I am setting up my first tank and i have used the aquatic mix and gravel on top but when we were trying to get the filter to work it all got stired up. I think i need to get a gravel cleaner so i can get rid of the aquatic mix which is now sitting on top of the gravel. So to be honest right now i am not that impressed with the mix as my plants dont look to be doing too good either ,i wonder if they have been planted too deep .
