thats a good thought and I didnt think about that much. They do eat any chance they get and my tank never has any algae at all in it. Just because of low lighting and water conditions.

No idea what size tank this is. I have a trio of breeding gold vail angels. They are fully grown and are at least 12"+ tall. Depending on the tank size you may consider not doing vail angels. The two plants look like amazon swords to me. Mine eat anything I put in the tank.

I figured as much but I dont understand why every fish profile says mid/top

Alright last question for me today. Looking for some info on Denison Barbs. I have 7x that are fully grown. Everything I read online says they should stay on the top or middle of the tank however mine are ALWAYS swimming on the very bottom just above the substrate. I have tried things like...

Well, I am considering large amazon swords because I have 4x that are massive. They are over 2ft tall and about 2 feet wide in water. So I dont think they will uproot those even when adults and I dont think my silver dollars will be able to eat more then the growth they have. The reasons they...

Looking to add some really large amazon swords to my 220g. Currently I have a 4bulb t5ho over it. Do you think that will keep the swords happy/healthy? Its just a cheap Odyssea 4x 80w t5ho

I have a 220g that needs some plants in it. In the past I have always used real pants but for this tank it just cant be done. I have a group of Geophagus that will uproot anything I plant and a group of silver dollars that will eat anything I plant. What I am looking for is some good realistic...

Tomorrow I have my Geos and a group of Silver Dollars going into the tank. I have been wanting to figure out some good looking fake plants for the tank.I hate a fake plant in tanks but with the Geo's i just cant have any real plants. So I need to find something because the tank is just missing...

thank you for the concern but I do have a contact there that I have spoke with. If for some reason they dont want to take it when the time comes because this will be years down the road I have plenty of LFS that I am sure would be interested in having one in a show aquarium.

Thank you, didnt know anything about the rays on the dorsal fin. I am looking forward to him being that large honestly. when I got him he was about 2 inches and hes grown to 9ish over the last few years. I figured he would be in the ~2ft area when he was fully grown. Should be a good looking...

Here is my tank. Was a reef tank but I decided to build a new reef tank and convert this one to freshwater. It's been running for a little over a year. Originally was only doing South America Amazon tank but the rose line barbs destroyed that concept. Fish: 3x gold vail angels - full grown...

Ty for the complement on his health. He is very active. Always swimming around the bottom of the tank and never hides. Majority of the time he is also displaying his fins. Think this is due to his tank mates. 3 gold vail angels, 7 young red line geophagus, 1 adult threadfin geophagus, 7 adult...

Looking for an ID. Have had this guy for years. Got him at about 2" from petco for a little tank I had. He's now in my 220g and is about 9"-10" long. Hard to tell in the picture but the top tip of his tail fin is orange/red Pretty sure he's just a leopard pleco but he just looks different then...

I have a fluval canister filter rated for a 75 gallon tank. Maybe ill stuff that baby full of filter floss and see if it does the job and if not Ill get something bigger. I mean its cloudy water I cant even see the back of the tank.

Anyone ever seen the Aquatop CF series? Looking at the 400, its only recommended for up to 175g tanks so I am not sure if thats enough but its only 150$ right now. and has a "UV serializer" never been much of a believer in UV so I dont care much about that.
