I'm interested in Parrot cichlids but i'm not sure if 50 gallons is enough for them?

I have a 50 something gallon long stock tank out in our barn thats almost finished cycling but I have no idea what i'm gonna put in it, I already have goldies in my 55g inside so I dont want any more coldwater fish. temp is about 73F but the heater is only 100w so its cranked up to 95 degrees...

oh alright! thank you!

i was thinking about getting a 20g long and making a bunch of dividers for the fry when they're older. the male is currently in his own 10 gallon and the female is in a sorority in my 55g. when the female goes into the spawn tank, how long does it usually tank for her to drop eggs? i'm gonna...

I'm not 100% sure of his age, but my lfs says they usually sell males at 6 months or so. I was gonna empty one of my 10 gallons and use that as the spawn tank, I'm ordering some indian almond leaves to boil and use the tannins for the tank & a sponge filter. I've been doing tons of research and...

anyone?

Does anyone here have experience with mixing different bettas to get "mutts"? i'm (very) new to breeding bettas and i'm having trouble picking pairs my males, (if i can figure it out, i'll try to post photos!) red/blue dragon butterfly male, 2 yrs red/white dragon plakat male, 6 months...

can i treat it? i've never had a fish with cotton mouth but i've heard it's usually fatal edit, oops i missed the link

sorry for late reply! these are the best pics i could get.

okay, thank you!

Hi 2 of my Neons have had some kind of fungus on their mouth for a few weeks and i can't get rid of it. tank is cycled, 10 gallons (its temporary, their new 20g is almost done cycling) ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 10. i have 7 neons but thankfully only the 2 have the fungus... i've used many...

oh wow, i didnt know they needed so much room. shes no longer clamping her fins or chasing the females, and ive just noticed some tiny fry swimming at the bottom. i put some terra cotta pots at the bottom for more hiding areas and they seem to be doing okay. the other 3 girls are doing fine...

hi ive just recently noticed one of my female platys is clamping her fins and chasing around the other females. tank is cycled (20 gallons) ammonia 0 ppm, nitrite 0, nitrate 20. ive had her for about 2 weeks now and she was perfectly fine before :( all the other fish seem fine. just yesterday...

Today I noticed my platy and honey gourami have white and stringy poo...Is this okay? 2 weeks ago I tested my water and my ammonia was 0.25, so I did daily 25% changes for about 9 days. my gouramis and platy just sit at the top (or at the bottom) of the tank all day. they still eat, and...

My BP is 3 years and she's about 3 inches. if she gets larger i'll make sure to put her in my 20g :)

Oops! I forgot to mention that I do have a divider and they are not fighting :) I've just moved the shrimp to my other 5gal aquarium to make sure they don't nip his fins

Hi I've had my Betta for about a year, and when i got him his Fins looked torn, but i assumed they would heal. Almost a year later it hasn't changed one bit. He's in a 10 gallon with another male Betta, 4 ghost shrimp, and a bristlenose pleco. I do 25% water changes every 2 or 3 weeks. He is...

Yes she eats most green veggies, She must just not like cucumber. I'm glad shes not sick or anything. :D

Hi! I have a bristlenose pleco that i've had for about 2 years, and she's been eating basically every green veggie you can name. But I just started giving her cucumber, and she hasn't touched it :ermm: Is this normal? Every night put it on a rock and she just kinda swims around it and doesn't...

Thanks! In the next month or so i'll get just 1 fish to start. I don't wanna overcrowd the tank. I'l probably get some hardy plants, like you said. :)

Hello. I have been doing lots of research about goldfish, and planning on getting one in the next few weeks...but i'm really stuck on the tank size. I was gonna get a 30 gallon glass aquarium, but then I saw a big Rubbermaid 50 gal tub at my local farm store, and It was WAY cheaper than the...

Woo! I finally got everything set up. Meet Ezekiel, My new betta! The Lfs told me hes probably an older fish. hes been showing signs of an old betta, sitting in the plants, and doesn't have as much color as the younger betta, but hes still adorable. Although, when I say "He" i'm just guessing...

Thanks. I'm doing everything I can to save these little guys

I do 40% water changes every week, and I clean the gravel also. I do the filter about every month cause its pretty clean most of the time. I now am veryy worried, one of my neons is starting to go to the top of the tank and flip over, and my gouramis are both sitting at the surface gulping air...

..Quick update....the 5 gallon didn't go so well. :( Long story short, it was fully cycled, and the filter pump just said "Hey! I'm gonna break for no reason!!!" and I had to take it back to the store. sigh. I ended up just getting a divider for my 10 gallon that I already have my other betta...
