For local Houston, TX sale only, will not ship. Sorry! Am selling a group of live & plastic plants 1) Java Moss "Tree" (approx 11" high) 2) Anubias on driftwood (3 yr's old & well established Annubias Nana?, approx 10" high & 11.5" wide) 3) Java Moss (approx softball size) 4) 10 assorted...

Thank all of you so much for your help today!! :) I think I'll just seriously look into trading my 20g tall for a 20g long locally or possibly a 29g. Seems easier just to get a different aquarium and this way I can still get some Barbs with the Kribs. :) Any idea if the Kribs will munch on...

Any other suggestions? :) I love Zebra Danio's but I always seem to end up with them in my tank and I was trying to avoid them if I can. Thank you again for all of your time & help today!!

Serpae Tetra?

That's pretty ironic about the Tiger Barbs; I picked them because they're a top-mid level fish that's spunky, colorful, active & fun. I thought they'd be a really good tank mate for the Kribs. Just didn't know they need room like they do! I always prefer color when possible, so the 5 Banded...

Just trying to understand your reasoning here. May need to trade my tank & stand for the long version for I can have enough room! :) I successfully kept a breeding pair of Angels in this tank without any other tank mates. The Angel's I understand being alone together but not the Krib's. The...

Thanks for the info!! Would 5 Tiger Barbs work, maybe? If not, any suggestions on some sort of dither fish that could handle the Kribs Dr Heckle & Mr Hyde personalities? I always liked the Tiger's frisky but non lethal behavior & their color!

Why is a 20g too small for only 10 Tiger Barbs? 20g tall tank foot print too small for 1 PR of Kribs? What's the difference in the foot print size between the tall & long?

I have an empty 20g tall that needs fish!! :) Am planning on this being a very low tech planted tank & as far as stocking goes I'd like 1 Pr Kribs, 8-10 Tiger Barbs & some Nerites & Ghost Shrimp. Am thinking Barbs could handle a breeding pr of Kribs so that takes care of top, mid & bottom...

Thank you both for your advice!! Its great that there are so many members here with experience on such a huge variety of fish that are always willing to share their fish keeping experiences. :)

Always use a mixture of flake food & shrimp pellets. Will switch out pellets for algae wafers and agg frozen brine shrimp as well.

Hadn't given that much thought! I know the Pigmy Cory will school and is more mid level but I was thinking they also scavenged around like they're cousins as well. Don't think I'll add the male Sunsets after all; I value my peaceful tank, its so nice that no one fights or is aggressively...

I plan to add more Corie's but my Danio is the last one from his group (he's an old man now) & I want to try a different combo of fish. I thought it would be cool to have 2 different harems in the tank that's why I added the Gouramis. Big personalties but little color & totally different from my...

I am trying to build my stock back up currently. Am considering adding the Gourami males due to their color. Not too sure if I want any fish breeding at this point, so I'm in research mode!! Current stock: 5-6 Kuhli Loach (bio load 2=1), 2 Cory, 5 Neons, 1 Endler male, 2 Guppy males, 1 LF...

Sword tails would work great as well. By watching your fish you can learn their different personalties and stop issues before they get bad. :)

You could try some Mollies, they will provide fresh fry/food for your Angels and you won't ever need to worry about over population issues. FYI: Your eventually going to have issues with this grouping of fish. :( When your Angels mature and start breeding be prepared for fishy casualties...

Hey Everyone, Recently added 3 female Sunset Gourami to my planted 40g breeder community tank. Chose this variety since its the smallest of the Gourami family and the most docile of the bunch. :) Not interested in the "dwarfs" since they do not tend to be as docile. My question is, will 2...

Sometimes a fish will just disapear. One day I was moving something around and when I picked it up I felt something slimy on the back. Came to find out one of the fish had died and I hadn't realized it. Have you ever noticed a piece of uneaten food will have a white looking growth around it...

I've only had an aquarium with ich one other time. I know a fish can have ich in its gills or mouth and not have any visable spots or both inside & out. A lot depends on the health of the individual fish & how soon you start treatment. It doesn't sound good that he was swimming oddly and he...

It's taking me over 48 hrs to raise the temp on my aquarium and I'm still raising it. I am working over the week end so the ich issue has bad timing!! I always question my heater as to if its keeping the correct temp accurately or not; need the digital kind for I won't question the readings I...

FYI: The temp should only be raised 1 degree at a time to reach your temp goal with a couple hours in between each raised temp degree. If done too quickly you will loose fish. Not sure if your aware of this or not. :) Good luck!! I'm dealing with the Ichy stuff myself. :(

Anyone? Have been raising temp so far but tomorrow I plan to vacume & I start using the Ich Attack. Really nervous about all the fish but especially my Kuhli's, Betta's, snails & plants!!!

Just found Ich on one of my new fish! Had Ich for the first time last year so I'm somewhat familiar about the various treatments but I'm especially worried about my plants, snails, Kuhli's & female Betta harem in this tank during treatment. Of course I need to start treating ASAP but should I...

Really like your original set up for Marshall!! Yes, it would be best to have seperate aquariums for these two fish, they may get along now but long term would be a different story. Also, you might want to consider getting a few Kuhli Loach or Cories for Marshalls tank. They would make a nice...

No, I did not. :(
