If you have another tank, move the mating pair, or the cardi.

The good news is the Badis will do this again. You may want to move them to another tank with a cave area and let nature take it's course.

hummmm. ok i going to buy a 5gal tank to try! thankz
[acronym:ffec14c480="By the way"]btw[/acronym:ffec14c480] after i buy e new tank , how many % of water i should add in e new tank using e main tank water.

sorry, i know little about fish. =x

Since your current tank is 10 gals, fill the new tank up with water from the established tank.

Looking at your sig, you are overstocked. 14 cardinals and 3 cories are more than enough for that tank and then there are a bunch more fish in there! How long has the tank been running?

my 10gal tank is running for ayear wif only 1 discus! but i only add in all e other fish 3 moth ago. i also do weekly 50% water change. and all e fish look happy ^^

i just bought some test kit to test my tank water i need to know as my tank is very overstocked!!

Ammonia=0 [acronym:4be3eb6ffb="Parts per Million"]ppm[/acronym:4be3eb6ffb]
Nitrit=50 [acronym:4be3eb6ffb="Parts per Million"]ppm[/acronym:4be3eb6ffb]
[acronym:4be3eb6ffb="General Hardness"]GH[/acronym:4be3eb6ffb]=>7d <14d
[acronym:4be3eb6ffb="Carbonate Hardness"]KH[/acronym:4be3eb6ffb]=3d
pH=7,2

thankz!

You should take over half of those fish back to the [acronym:0d6a2cc4ef="Local Fish Store"]LFS[/acronym:0d6a2cc4ef]. Discus are supposed to grow up to 8".

sacy · 11-20-2004, 11:51 AM

hummm! can i hold all e fishz in e tank for another few more moth ??cos i thinking of using my other 45gal tank but now i use it to keep my pet hamster ^^! i need some time to find another place for my hamster.

Menagerie · 11-20-2004, 12:33 PM

I would find a new home for your hamster [acronym:e4ffc8f33a="As soon as possible"]ASAP[/acronym:e4ffc8f33a] and more the fish into a bigger tank. I'm guessing all your fish are young and small right now. You don't want their growth to be affected by being in a small tank.

sacy · 11-20-2004, 12:42 PM

oh! my cardi is from S size to M size they are young, most of my fishz are around 1inch or less. accept e discus
