Re: bog wood or drift wood uk

I'm no expert as I've only just started keeping catfish and only been keeping fish at all for a year, but I would think it would be full of salt and would alter your PH?.....

Hopefully conside...

Ah, I didn't know that, thanks :)

rescued plec, please ID

I've just rescued this plec from a pretty sorry life. He/she was in a two foot tank with gravel, no cave, no bogwood, and being fed on that crap "supa" goldfish food. It's now in a 2.5 foot tank - not big enough I know but it is all I have that is cycled except for my community tank which ...

I want a fish that looks and ...
