Antibiotics require prescription in the UK so I doubt any reputable website will send the meds over.

Probably a platy with swim bladder problems.

Very likely to be no. Aquarium Coop does not deliver to UK and I don’t think they have a local partner. If you do get your hands on a LED, you may need to get a transformer to convert from 230V to 110V, if their packaged transformer does not go up to 230V, and a plug adapter.

I’m in the UK, so may not have access to the same brands as you. Currently feeding Dennerle flakes, a German brand.

I use scouring pads as substitute and give it a rinse with water once a month after seeing this video: I also feed with surplus fish food.

Aquarium plant resource akin to seriously fish?
kammaroon replied to epicene's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
Flowgrow.de has a good database of aquatic plants. It’s a German site but there is option to view in English though the description is not as detailed. I normally use the browser translate option. -
I’m based in the UK and have them. They came from Ruinemans, a Dutch wholesaler, which supplies shops all owner Europe. They are in stock now: There’s a Coop video where Cory visited Ruinemans.

I’ve seen someone else bought those in the UK (I’m assuming you’re not “Janine”). Like @mynameisnobody said, you should keep the same name so it’s consistent across the hobby.

pygmy cories laying on the bottom of the tank
kammaroon replied to VegaYayy's topic in General Discussion
Yes, it’s normal. They like to chill a lot. If you have big leaves plants higher up, that would be their preferred spot. It’s like they’re on a lookout. -
Reflections On Some Live Foods I Have Known
kammaroon replied to memorywrangler's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for sharing your experience. Very informative. I create quick infusoria by squeezing sponge filter water into a jar and adding a pinch of yeast after seeing this video (his first method): No smells and works every time. My grindal worms cultures got infested with mites, same as you. Now I use damp scouring pads for the substrate: I feed the culture lightly and once every few days. The yields are much lower but I don’t need that much. The worms survived my week of absence over the Christmas period. I rinse out the containers with tap water once a month and haven’t had any problems. -
I’ve seen them on a few EU (France and NL) websites still.

Question about the danger level of keeping Ricefish in a Breeding Tank
kammaroon replied to a topic in Fish Breeding
Drip aclimate your shrimp when moving newly purchased shrimp into your tank. No need to when moving between your own tanks as parameters should be similar. Get a least 10 shrimps, the more the better, for faster colony growth. If you have a sponge filter and rinse out in a bucket during water change, check for baby shrimps in the bucket. They love eating from and clinging onto sponges. I have shrimp with my ricefish indoor unheated tank (15-25 degrees C/60-77F) and outdoor tubs year round (0-25 C/30-77F). They are also in heated tanks at around 22C/72F. They seem to breed more at the higher temperatures. At constant 70 and higher temperatures, the ricefish will breed year round but their life expectancy decreases. You’ll get loads of ricefish either way. Make sure you separate the fry from the adults and they will be eaten. -
Question about the danger level of keeping Ricefish in a Breeding Tank
kammaroon replied to a topic in Fish Breeding
The shrimp eggs are carried beneath the female shrimp until they hatch. So you have no worries of the ricefish eatings the eggs. However, the fish will eat the tiny shrimp let’s. Enough should survive for the colony to grow. I keep shrimp with all my (nano) fish, including ricefish. -
What is the Best Ferilizer Available in Europe?
kammaroon replied to St_Marcus's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
Tropica Specialised is widely available. MasterLine All In One is generally cheaper. There are lots of other brands: 2Hr Aquarist, Dennerle, etc, but I’ve not tried them. -
I would do this:

I experience the same. They go all different levels in a tank, maybe because of the clear sides. I keep them with neos. They probably do eat baby shrimp (numbers are lower than a shrimp only tank), but enough survive to grow the shrimp colony.

I’ve been using the Aquael Ultra heaters in 4 tanks during the cold months (mid-Oct to end Apr) for the past three winters without any problems. If you are concerned, you could get an Inkbird thermometer controller for 34 pounds from Amazon.

How to Get Red Root Floaters to turn red
kammaroon replied to JoshStover's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
High light will turn them red. You don't need to add CO2 as it is freely available from the air to floating plants. The ones in my outdoor tubs which has sun in the afternoon are more red than ones in my tank with LED light. I wish I can get mine to flower like yours. -
You can drain into a large water container and use the water for your plants. Depending on the level of your drains, you can bury the container or have it above ground.

A kilogram was originally defined as the weight of 1 litre of water. So you are kind of correct.

How to quarantine flame moss without a chemical dip?
kammaroon replied to Thomas's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
You can blitz the moss into tiny pieces and they can still grow
