You should check out my thread later today because I am posting some pics. I have a 55 with platties and guppies. I am trying to get all different colors and I'm doing a breeding experiment. I am just trying to see what colors I get and what are dominate colors. There are about 35 fish in there...
I don't think snails and shrimp are a problem together. Shrimp are fast and can swim and snails have a hard shell. I don't see why they wouldn't work together. (I have an onion snail in with my shrimp)
Oh have you considered shrimp? I just got some shrimp and I love them. The ghost shrimp actually swim around. The red cherry shrimp are very pretty too.
Im sorry, I didn't get the pictures done today but I did add 4 more fish. I got a female bumble bee platty, female red coral platty and 2 female guppies. I got them from a different shop so it should add some new DNA to the tank.
Well in a tank that small it depends on how well it is filtered. If it is filtered well you might beable to do a small group of peacefull fish. I had 6 Neon tetras in a 5 gallon and it worked greated (I did have a 10 gallon filter on it.) The only down side is they don't exactly zip around...
I wouldn't put angels in with tiger barbs...I wouldn't add any more than what you listed and what you listed might be over doing it. Clown loaches get big...they will out grow a 40 gallon. I would focus on the danios and tiger barbs. I think they go nice together. Sepae Tetras and Columbian...
No it doesn't. I took a class called the Biology and evolution of sex and out main book was "The Red Queen" by Mark Riddley I believe, and it was amazing. It really makes the case for evolution and really shows how similar we are to creatures as simple as fish.
Well like I said ealier actually, pirahnas are becoming a problem. As far north as Missouri fishermen are catching pirahnas in lakes that people have released. There is a lake in Missouri that has breeding pirahnas. Every year a few full sized ones are caught. They thought the water was too...
That's actually how I almost killed my cories. I went away for 2 weeks and when I got back the water level was low. I know by touch about what the right temp is so I dumped water into the tank...All of a sudden my cories went belly up. I paniced and netted them and threw them into my other tank...
Well I went with the hillstreams for the reason they were cold water (even though they aren't advertised that way,) to go with the gold fish. I tried to keep the temp up just high enough for cories. I will go on record right now and say I have never lost a cory. I came close...but I have never...
Just got the final guppy and platties out of my 29 gallon and put the plants back in. The tank now only has tetras and my shrimp. About the put my Matriarchs and Patriarchs in the 55 in a few. I'm letting the water mix at the moment.
I'm thinking a school of cories in the 55 for clean up. Might...
My dad is a pro at goldfish. He should go into business raising goldfish. He makes nickel size orandas turn into baseball size ones in about a year...He does it all in takes with no heaters.
My wife likes goldfish and we tried them in a 20 gallon with the temp at 74 with hillstream loaches and...
Since I am board I may as well tell you guys about my breeding experience so far...
Most of the babies I have now are from females that were pregnant when I got them. My tank is kind of an experiment to see what colors and combos I get and what colors are dominate and stuff.
My first generation...
