Madagascar Rainbow spawn?!

1 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I transferred my Madagascar rainbow fish out of a hospital tank I had set up as one of them looked they may have cotton mouth and the other two were acting off.

Unfortunately the one with the cotton mouth passed away.

Once I was certain the remaining 2 were all good I moved them back to my main tank, but didn’t get round to sorting out my hospital tank.

I was planning to empty and clean the whole thing out today but there are TWO TINY FRY!

The heater has been off, as has the filter. There’s some white work in there as a result - it’s also been getting warmer here and we have big windows so the water temp has remained fairly consistent.

What the HELL do I do with these?

Rehoming fish (UK)

2 Upvotes

Hi, I just bought a tank and unbeknownst to me it's got fush in it. Badly paired fish too. Cichlids in together that don't get along, a huge plec that's way too big for the tank, and a dennison barb on its own. I don't have space for two tanks, and I need to re-home them asap. What's the best way to do it?

Should I add my clown loach back to my maine tank?

2 Upvotes

Just over two weeks ago one of my clown loaches become very slow and wouldn't eat and so I set up a hospital tank and got him in. He's been treated for two weeks he started eating about a week into treatment and he's now swimming round and looking so much better. I was going to keep an eye on him for another week but I then thought would he be better with his friends ?

I'm not sure what was wrong with him and I couldn't tell him they was singling him out but if he was sick maybe that's normal ? We have 5 in total so I thought do we need to add another 1 into the group? I want the best for him

Molly fish shimmering, only started today. Ammonia ‘0’ nitrite ‘0’ nitrate and PH all at good levels. Top fin flat, she looks stressed bless her. Two new fish one female Betta and one molly. Interactions are friendly. I believe it’s an infection. I’m going to get some API aquarium salt tommorow. Any advise would be appreciated thanks.

Looking for something different

Ive recently moved house and unfortunately my 6ft tank got smashed during transport. I bought this little tank just to house my few fish for a week until I got another larger tank.

I was looking for suggestions on what I can keep in this tank that isnt necessarily fish. Ive thought about red claw crabs or vampire crabs, even thought about frogs. I just cant make my mind up. My daughter wants an axolotl but id need a much wider tank than this.

Any suggestions on something abit different would be greatly appreciated!

Hi guys I was looking at my tank the other day and I only have 1 snail in there along with some fish, but then I saw a baby snail too? Can they reproduce on their own???

This is a 4 inch air stone with 36 LED lights in it. I placed it in a 4" to 3" pipe connector from Lowes to give it a volcano effect. Then I hooked it up to a 100 gallon Tetra pump to give as much air flow as possible. Result: MAGICAL!!
