Welcome!!!!!!! Sounds like you have a good tank, although I agree with Mrc8858, you should definitely go bigger, and get another tank! Try moving onto something more challenging, like a biotope or saltwater! :)
I think the API kits cost around 30-40$. You can sometimes find them on MarineDepot.com for cheaper though. Hmmm another filter could be overkill, and youreally don't need to put a lot of oxygen in the water. My fish lived long and happy lives and I didn't add another filter or put extra air...
NEVER follow the directions on the container, or petsmart. Feeding them as much as they can eat in 5 minutes is WAAAAAY too much! Just sprinkle some food in the tank ONCE a day and make sure all the fish get some. There is no real directions on how much to feed your fish. If you feed them once...
Actually, when I first started the hobby 2 years ago, I added 3 goldfish and two tetras in a 5g! Luckily the guy at the lfs told me I was WAY overstocked! I took the goldfish back and added 3 more tetras.
Ok, I'm going to build a tank, and can't choose between the options!
A 55g Mudskipper/figure eight puffer brackish tank
A 75g Volcano Reef Tank
A 60g Co2 Planted Amazon Biotope
A 5g Dwarf Seahorse Tank
Or all of them!:brows:
I remember when i got a 5g two years ago, i knew next to nothing about the hobby! So i added 3 golfish and two tetras. Thank goodness i had a good lfs! the guy told me i was WAY overstocked, and i returned my golfish and got three more tetras.
What about a tank with hamster tubes in it? I found this design in the book Aquarium Style: imaginative ideas for creating dream homes for fish-Chris William. It's a pretty awesome tank, and the book has a wole lot other awsome ideas. You should check it out!
A 25 gallon, hmmmm for one of them you could do an amazon biotope. You could add a pair of german blue rams, 4 lemon tetras, and 5 some corydoras catfish.
For the second, you could do a livebearer tank with a few guppies, platies, and one molly. you could also add a bristlenose catfish.
What about some pea fuffers? Or a Silver dollar, the silver dollar would look great and go well with your tetras, I'm not sure about the pea puffers with the tetras though. Hope this helps!
Hi, I was looking for glass sheets and came across glass-cages.com. Has anyone ever ordered glass sheets or aquariums from them? Are they reliable?
Thanks!:ermm:
