    Can Apistos survive 3 weeks without feeding?

    Has anyone tried Tetra Gel Feeder Blocks? They seem quite good in that they don't dissolve and spoil the water like plaster feeders: Are they really that good? Are they ok for small tanks with pairs of apistos? Won't apistos keep eating till they die (I suppose these things are not that...

    Borellis and Blue rams juveniles at 30 deg C (86 F)

    Hi - I suspected that I may have infected my grow out tank with Ick. I am thinking of keeping the temperature at 30 degrees C (86 F) for about 10 days. Will this temperature be ok for borelli and blue rams juveniles? Thanks Angel
