My tank os only 35 litres lol and Have you done a water test mate? If it checks out ok then it could be a multitude of illnesses, the main one being tetrahymena, basically symptonless death, it's a bugger to try and treat aswell,

If im purely honest no i havent, I spent like 45 minutes talking to the "specialist" for tropical freshwater fish and he tld me that really i shoul;dnt need to worry with the hardy fish i had etc etc. He was kind of helpful with my terrapins wen i first got em so i took his word, maybe i am totlally wrong to do so but he lives local and said his tap water was more than suitable for his setup....which is apparently near identical to mine. Confusing but meh I will have to look into the testing thing. I just took wut he said as gold and peraps i shouldnt.


Will try get a few pics up as i said, my mrs took a few rough ones on her mobi and threw on facebook, can i link them to here at all just so you get a fairsh idea?

There of ther tank before i added bit more decor and my mollys/gouramis
