The Assassin snail will hunt and kill other snails, ironically making it a great solution to snail-infested tanks http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Assassin_Snail DE42DC60-6020-41EE-8371-0FD4012F453C-28170-0002C7FC3B00A081-FFA Fri, 13 Jun 2008 02:47:23 +0100 The subject of cycling regularly crops up in fish keeping circles, so we thought it was about time Think Fish explained the subject, why some common methods are wrong, and how a fish cycle can be as safe as a fishless cycle http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/article/Fish_Or_Fishless_Cycling 5910EEFD-2890-4881-B94E-DFF5D676FC92-28170-0002C7BC233D7E20-FFA Fri, 13 Jun 2008 02:45:37 +0100 Isolation tanks can be used for many purposes, such as quarantine, treating disease, removing bully fish, raising fry or spawning. To get the best out of an isolation tank it is important to be prepared and set the tank up correctly http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/article/Isolation_Tanks 1645E0C3-4856-4BDF-8EA8-ABDE9FC2669C-25262-000295D0EEC8AEA8-FFA Thu, 12 Jun 2008 11:28:26 +0100 The Skunk Loach, Yasuhikotakia morleti, has been around in aquarium shops for years. For some it becomes an interesting and active scavenger, for others it can be a nightmare in a community tank. http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Skunk_Loach A5536BAA-606B-4241-B66D-9359E1158728-24661-0002852E7E3DD2D1-FFA Thu, 12 Jun 2008 06:23:43 +0100 The Lampeye Panchax is a lovely little fish ideally suited to heavily planted tanks or nano-tanks. Its small size means that tank mates must be carefully chosen, and its sensitivity to adverse conditions leaves it best suited to experienced fish keepers and established tanks. For the right tank, a group of these fish would be an excellent addition. http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Lampeye_Panchax 9AEA89BF-A36A-44FD-9CCF-FABC815839EF-5270-0000CB8DBA4AF2B6-FFA Thu, 27 Mar 2008 10:01:43 +0000 Axelrods Rasbora (Sundadanio axelrodi http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Axelrods_Rasbora 80D18DFB-392A-4D44-9781-2168694AFEF5-37172-00062B6C01AA783B-FFA Mon, 17 Mar 2008 18:09:49 +0000 The Peacock Goby (Tateurndina ocellicauda) is one of the most colourful tropical aquarium fishes, with a peaceful nature and growing to only 7cm, it makes an ideal addition to a community of small fish. Unlike other gobies, this fish will swim at all levels and looks particularly at home in planted aquaria. http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Peacock_Goby 25FD26F9-40AB-4EE5-B8DA-976AAC1D60FB-29534-0004B3A0C5829A4E-FFA Tue, 11 Mar 2008 14:10:30 +0000 The Horseface Loach (Acantopsis choirorhynchos) has now been added to our fish database and Community Creator. This unusual looking loach makes an excellent scavenger and is full of character - although its size and tendency to remain hidden need to be considered before purchasing. http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/Horse_Face_Loach DFDAEAC7-0977-4B76-A0F0-3E04C68D6D6D-12664-00023C2172751F4C-FFA Mon, 03 Mar 2008 13:15:37 +0000 Stocking levels are a lot trickier to work out than you might think, and the most common guidelines are very outdated. At Think Fish we receive many emails wondering why the sites Community Creator gives a higher than normal stocking level - so we decided to write an in-depth article examining the subject (and revealing our stocking formula) http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/article/Stocking_Levels 257C35EB-08ED-4CB5-A334-20EDF88BC3EC-7229-00010F52F429A850-FFA Sat, 23 Feb 2008 00:32:46 +0000 Think Fish has now added a RSS feed to the website - this will enable us to list any new updates, enhancements, or new content for our members to view at a glance. http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/pages/RSS.html 64310820-7D74-40DA-8EFB-AD9697D9C556-1826-00003EDC1BDF186B-FFA Wed, 20 Feb 2008 08:45:08 +0000
