  1. See that turtle ramp well the shelf is siliconed into the silcon ont he right side of the tank so dont watn to rip that bit out BUT. I could I take the ramp off and just leave the shelf or would it make it unstable????? Dumb me should of removed it when i cleaned it out from the turtle
  2. i think there is a few there is some girls like that i dont know much about the colours what happpened to all of yours?
  3. Thanks Sophia If worse comes to worse i can put some in the lounge tank that only has ten platy fry and one big platy but i dont watn the guppies munching the platy fry I was going to put the Albino guppies in there but then the platys will only eat the fry when its bigger, and the albinos have been with other fish so they might not always have albino babies I will do the daily water change and keep at it I am going to get an aqua one external filter later they are only 160 so that should do a good job..
  4. Yes I will fish are fine at the moment will keep up the water change but with 3 tanks i will get an ammonia kitt I had one before when I had ammonia in a tank from too much fish Guppies are lovely in large numbers The guy i got them off said that he has guppies 100s in a 3 foot tank no filter and his fish are fine
  5. 54 bucks on trademe for 3 foot with bulb.. Maybe i will get that and sell those two? not sure yet as both my other tanks have built in lights ... mind you i sell my spare stuff to buy more fish stuff then end up buying fish stuff again ha oh didnt notice that female
  6. Thanks.. there are a few albino ones in there too and an albino girl It will look better when I get a black backing.. and a new tube for my two foot light.. Do you think the two foot light will do Or should i just buy a 3 foot?? One is pick is only one and a bit and old as tube
  7. Yes i understand but I cant really afford 60 dollars for the whole big one so I am just going to get the ammonia test kitt I was told that would do..
