Thanx 4 the advice!:)

Hi, after some thinking ive decided to change both my 55s to sand. this is for the sake of the eel in one tank, & the dojo loaches in the other. So id just to like a few simple questions: which sand is best? How do I go about changing the substrate (ive heard you change out half at first, then...

Im still putting the tank together so Im doing sand substrate, moderate planting maybe in pots, I can put overturned flowerpots & rock and artificial caves, & maybe with floating plants

Ok so how can u tell male & female apart while yung? Ive nevr seen them 4 sale over 2"

That sounds cool:) so tht would be like 1 opaline gourami 6 zebra danios 8 tiger barbs 5 buenos aires tetras 4 kuhli loaches 1 bristlenose 1 krib 1 german blue ram This sound alright? It sounds like an awesom setup but I dont want any stocking or aggression issues

I like the kribs, besides she was only aggressive to the RS, but I kinda like gbr's too. :)

Hmm... I kinda like that. I had a krib before that was a bit aggressive but only ever towards my rainbow shark, plus I like the colors & ive always liked the look of the kuhli loaches & the opalines:) but wont the barbs nip the gourami? Or can they hold their own?

Wat if I add 5 buenos aires tetras? Im trying to get some fish out of my 55

I dont hav any specific plants wat could work with sand? Or maybe I could do pots

Hey, im jumping the gun here because I wont be getting the tank for about a month, & so the tank wont be ready for fish till like january. Im looking to get this tank for my school of tiger barbs, who r seriously stressing out the RS in my 55 (no nipping just very active). Im also hoping to use...

Shes already got the bgk & eel in a 55 gal with 2 adult angels & was planning to upgrade anyway since she was mislead to believe bgks only needed 55 gallons. She would hav put it n her 120 were it not for a bad-tempered bichir(who decimated all his tankmates, including a D:) her grandmother got...

Fish out, planted yes, & im not sure yes she does hav a test kit & has been doin this for a while she has 4 other tanks between 10 & 120 gallons is very cautious & wouldnt subject any fish to less than perfect conditions:)

Hi, a friend of mine recently got a 375 gal for her birthday:). Its still cycling & shes been deciding on a stock list in the meantime. Shes decided on a preferred stock but is frustrated because she keeps finding conflicting info on compatibility, so I decided to go to the experts:). Heres wat...

Thnx the 2 there were the same age & he/she was noticably stockier & shorter than the other I noticed

Ropefish typically arent aggressive with any fish tht cant fit easily into their mouths. I dont hav any at the moment but ive kept them with everything from eels to large tetras with no negative results. Ive never kept a bgk personally but from wat ive heard it shouldnt be a problem as long as...

Ill do that it doesnt really matter 2 me im mostly just wandering about the body shape

Thats what ive been reading. But the different body shapes have me confused :/

Hi, I was at my lfs today 2 build up my school of tiger barbs & I saw that they were selling albino bristlenose for $8 each. It was such a steal, I couldnt resist! But im curious, because there were 2 left, a long slender 1, & a short stocky 1. I got the stocky 1. So does this mean that hes a...

No, itll prob be very little if even at all

No particularly. You might hav some problems with fin nipping

As far as I can tell u shud b fine. Peacock eels arent aggressive & are usually fine with anything that wont fit easily into its mouth

Rainbow shark, red tail shark, angels, gouramis, ranbowfish, idk im just throwing out suggestions do u have any specific fish n mind?
