What do u use? turkey baster, and what is that?

I bought two pakistan loaches abount 2 months ago. They r in a 12 gal tank, with 8 neons.Now one of them seems that he's not eating, for ex when i drop a piece of sinking tablets, the big one goes on it, and he wont let it go until he finish it.In fact the greedy one is getting big, while the other ...

Does driftwood cause the same problems og fungus? i think i'd go for it if it doesnt. Also I realized i need more light in my aquarium, d double of what I have in watts, would a reflector b good enough, or do I have to change light tube?

It happened to me as well, and i just lost patience, my boogwood is at the moment in d garage gathering up dust. In fact, what type of wood could i use that won't give me thi fungus problems. I have a freshwater community tank, it still in its 4th month so not yet really ready.

I'm a beginner when it comes to live plants, i have 4 types in my aquarium, and nearly all of them have brownish dot on the leaves, were do i find good info about plant, i'd like a well planted tank.

thanks for d info guys

I just bought 2 pakistan loaches. Will they harm my plants? and my ph is 7.5, and on some sites that i found , 6-7 was recommended,will they adapt?

And tips about them would be appreciated.

Is the clown loatch a Botia?

I took a look at a site with an index if loaches, and off all of them i like the clown loatch best, even tough i don't reallllyyyyy like him.

I have a 60 litre, i'm buying only two, will they b happy, and will they grow very large in a tank this size?

Thanks.

Thanks,
I'll look around for them. I live on a small island, Malta, and you dont find everything, believe me

If not i'll get some clown loatches.
