Thats a good idea, I had a green terror spook one day and dove into the gravel, he was completly covered and I had to dig him out. Sand might be harder to dive into like that.

Lol, actially larger tanks = less maintenance. Its cool if you can do it, always get the largest tank that you can pay for or fit in your house , it so much easier in the long run.

The smaller tanks can be used for quarentine , growout , ect or you can just stock them all over again if you want :) , the best deals on aquariums seem to be 125 gal if you really want something larger ;)

A larger tank is so much easier to take care of , and you will have snakker tanks to stock lol .

Keep your other tanks and buy a 40 :)

Lol they will figure out who is dominant, it might change again also but its really good that they are together while they are this young. Your red devil might accept them also when he gets big, sometimes they do if they are raised together.

Makes sense, I was always wondering about that.

Purigen works great , it does not take much and you can see when it needs to be recharged. It wont work miracles but it is a great water polisher and will remove some of the organic waste in your tank.

It looks great, I like that first oscar it is really dark with cool markings. Its good to move the decor around when you put new fish in.

I guess that they are called a nitrate factory because they are so effective at housing bacteria thatconvert ammonia and nitrite to nitrate.

It would be cool if you can make it work, I have been to a few cenotes in Yucatan.

Yes they fade in the dark while they are resting.

Your red devil will be one soon lol thats when they get really fun. Red Devil is one fish that I will always have.

I just PM'd you

Ok I will check out who it is in the classifieds

They should fit in a small mesh net, maybe try a cup if not, if they dont make it you will have new fry every 2 weeks with a pair of convicts , they will keep breeding .

Those are a great mix, I really would like to get uaru but they are hard to find

You can separate them just get some fry food or crush flakes into a powder for them to eat.

I would keep african cichlids with africans or S/A C/A cichlids with there own but im sure people do mix them. The Electric blue jack dempsey is not nearly as aggressive as a regular jack for some reason they also seem to be difficult to keep healthy from what I hear.

I love sushi but I will pass on this one lol.

To answer your questions about fishless cycle, most people seem to get their ammonia from ACE hardware, be careful that it is pure ammonia , most ammonia cleaners have other chemicals or scents in it. You can throw a raw shrimp in your tank to produce ammonia also , it works good too. Also a...

Hello , that is a great size tank to start with, easier than a small one. All you need is Sea chem prime to dechlorinate or another type of dechlorinator, prime is the best IMO , a water testing kit, API seems to be the best, and just cycle your tank properly. You can do a fishless cycle or fish...

Yeah they will

He will come out of his shell soon and when he does the others will probably let him eat first lol,, I have the same problem with one in my grow out tank , he is a little smaller than some of my other fish and when they all get excited for the pellets he kind of watches and will only grab a few...

They will get hooked on live food but it is good that it is eating frozen , you might have to withhold anything but pellets for a few days until it starts to eat it.
