Here are a few of my favorites...

Yes, of course they can eat algae pellets.

I have had a SunSun canister filter for a few years. It is pretty quiet. I have to pay close attention to even hear it. I also have an Aquatop canister on that tank. It is just barely audible. With the tv, videogames, music, or talking to friends, I never hear them.

I would just like to mention that I have a very large Green Severum and a Convict in my 75gal with lots of Mbuna and Peacocks. The tank has been running successfully for over 2 years with no problems, fights, or deaths. I am not trying to suggest that what I am doing is a "good" idea, but it is...

Have you inquired as to if they will special order fish for you? My LFS doesn't have much of a selection, but they will order any fish I want. They come with the regular order, so i don't have to pay any shipping costs.

There is a small one down the street from me. They don't have a great selection on hand, but they will order pretty much anything you want. I keep African Cichlids. I told them what I wanted, and they arrived within a week. Their saltwater collection is larger.

Hey, there! I am just across the state line in Starkville, MS. Welcome to the forum!

You probably need to turn the faucet up more. If it has little suction and fills slowly, that is likely the cause.

I like mine because it is just down the street that I live on. The owner and I have become friends sort of. She can get me any fish I want and any size I want within a week's time. My Chihuahua and I go shopping there frequently. She also cut me a great deal on a 75 and a stand.

How many Severum can I keep in there? I'll forget about the terrors.

Thanks. I was worried about that. I'll keep the fish that I have in there. ��

Is a 75 gallon big enough for a Green Severum, a Green Terror, and a Red Terror?

Moved a fish I took my mean as hell O.B. Peacock out of the 75gal and put him by himself in a tank in my bedroom. He beat up two fish and killed a third. He was the biggest and most dominant fish. He had been in the living room for 2 years before he did this.

I love to go fishing. If what I catch is of appropriate size, I take it home and eat it. I love eating fish and seafood. I live near the Gulf Coast. I have fish and shrimp in my freezer right now. Note: please don't tell my pet fish !!

Is that right? Your filter only does 55gph turnover?
