yay jools you get me! thats cool, i feel a whole load better about this entire post now :D no i've not been clubbin in scotland but i fully intend to get the crew up to Colours at the Arches in Glasgow whenever we all have the time/money! Its supposed to be ace in there

but mostly its Atomic Jam ...

alright! sorry for being cr*p, but i was only being friendly and having a bit of fun, sorry if that bothers anyone :( i would have thought that if you were out in the superclubs in the midlands you would certainly know about it, and if you'd never heard of it, then obviously you hadn't been! it was ...

hello everyone!

it was a struggle to find this site, i did a Google search on pl*cs and i was taunted with so many sites that merely mentioned Planet Catfish, but offered no web address or link..... but finally i am here, and am thankful to all of you that have already offered loads of useful ...

my goldfish and carp range currently range from 2 to 5 inches in length, and all have a pond to move into should they require more space. the carp is gonna be the first to go, as he is growing far more rapidly than the others, and needs space to swim

good to finally find a group of people who know ...

I have two common plecs that cohabitate nicely with my 3 comets and oranda. Don't believe everything you read/hear!


which means you can put multiple pl*cs in one tank? do they need to be of similar size, as i have found some lovely albino common pl*cs but they are only tiny compared to my one ...

I'm from Redditch, West Midlands (near Birmingham for those who dont know)

apologies for not putting in a physical location in my profile, its only it is, in my case, far more appropriate to explain that i'm in my own little world, cos i never get what anyone's on about, and i always miss the ...

i have been reliably informed that common pl*cs are hardy enough to live in room temperature. My aquarium is 21 degrees C which is well within the comfort zone for this fish, and my goldfish are happy and healthy with this set up too

I have learned to research a fish before purchasing, following ...

yes he has a huge lump of bogwood to hide under, and i would guess that i do a 60% water change every 6-8 weeks, but i've only had my pl*c a couple of weeks so he's not had a water change yet.

i give him algae tablets twice daily which he loves, but i have noticed that one of my carp picks them up ...

no i havent actually seen it happen, but since he arrived an unprecedented number of scales has vanished from some of his mates. he's in with 3 normal goldfish, a black moor and a couple of carp - tho the carp must be too quick for him as they are untouched.

its a 4ft tank, so i would've thought ...

my common pl*c seems to be hoovering off my other fishes scales, which isn't nice! will they grow new ones or remain scarred? you'd think they'd take evasive action to protect themselves.

does this mean my pl*c wants more snacks, ie cucumber, will this make him less likely to munch on his tank ...

hiya i'm Mand and I have been searching all over to find out whether or not my pl*c is actually the david blaine of my aquarium, or whether he's supposed to do what i thought of as an unexpected trick...

he's an 8inch common or garden pl*c with the standard dark brown colouration.

however, he ...
