That's the length of my room I guess I don't reeeeeally need a bed now do I? :rotf:

That sounds so wicked !drool: Man I want a bigger tank now! :lol:

Thanks! I'll give it a go, may start with 1gm and see how it goes. That's fine for plants?

So it looks like I have a bit of whitespot in my community :facepalm: Little platty has a couple of spots and is flashing, a few neons have one or two spots and I suspect they're the culprits. I've already done a 35% ish waterchange (and gravel vac) this afternoon, water quality is fine. Have turned the water temp up to 30 degrees and given a half-dose of whitespot cure. Would salt be a better option for a planted tank? I dont what them to be ruined - I've tried to research but havent had much luck :roll: If so what's a good dose? Tank has BNs, neons, angels, a fighter and a few guppies.

We have bamboo blinds downstairs that let alot of light in even when closed :facepalm: I usually take my pics at night but I'm rather impatient :happy2:

Just had to share these 'Then&Now' Pics of the 165L It's been just 4 weeks between the two pictures (keep in mind - no ferts etc) I've also started my dwarf puffer project. It's housing some guppies at the moment until the plants grow a bit more :happy2:

Love the colouring on the second betta Trilobite !drool:

Yeap. Well thats what I learnt when I did a paper on them for uni :smln:

Green oily surface scum has made a home in my tank also - just after adding plants :facepalm:

I did a bunch of waterchanges, re-scaped a tank, and watched one of my guppies give birth to about 100 fry Two drops over the last few days = A 2ft FULL of fry. I'm a very happy fish keeper :happy2:

Sweet! Keen to breed albino blue moscows !drool:

My girl from animates is dropping now, started right in the middle of a water change :happy2: The babies are fluro purple Very cool, might have to go down and get a couple more! Anyone know what strain has purple fry? Anyway, sorry for taking over your thread :smot:

I know what you mean! I had to wait 8 weeks for mine to drop Not that I have seen, but I don't get out to HFF much. I might ask the guy at animates if he can try get some in, he's pretty good with that

Yup, they're so tiny and cute! I've counted 10 now so I think I counted a few twice before. Still, pretty thrilled with 10! :thup:

Yup, all albino snakeskin :happy2: I did a 50% water change in the evening before and turned out the lights. She started dropping about 10am

My only albino female had 12 fry today :happy1: So thrilled!

:rotf: Here's hoping!! I'm not sure if all 12 will survive, 8 are free swimming but 4 are still kinda resting at the bottom and only swimming occasionally. Still, better than nothing, I was begining to think she might be infertile or just have stillborns

Just watched my albino guppy give birth to her first fry! There's 12 tiny pink babies all up :happy1: I went over to look at her, noticed she was looking a bit more square than usual, then POP! A teeny little pink squiggle fell out Rushed around getting the dads out of the tank then caught the babies one by one and put them in a fry tank :nilly:

Looks like my timing was pretty spot on! Just watched her give birth to 12 (I think) tiny pink babies :happy1:

I'm so happy for you!! That's just fantastic news!! It must be such a load off to know he's safe :happy2: Extra cuddles for kitty for awhile I'm sure!

Yeap, Botany, they have a fair few It's hard to see under their lighting so go for the ones that look clear. They have a nice pinky purple sheen so hopefully will have some nice babies!

I name my particularly special fish, but I couldn't name all my neons, guppies etc I have Felix and Cocoa (Angelfish) & Faulks the fighting fish. Oh and my one lone baby plattie that snuck in with the angel fish has been dubbed Petey :lol:

I'm having the same issue, there's not enough nice females available, particularly albino :roll: Just got back from animates, picked up a nice pink, black eye female, she'll have to do I guess

They're ment to be super agressive but a 2ft is probably a good size for 3 or more so as long as its heavily planted What size tank do you have your 6 in? Do they seem to get along well? I went to animates today and they only had one but boy was he cute! :love:

Here's hoping this one gives me a lot of fry too :lol: She's definately a bit of a fatty!
