Thanks i just bought some fluorite and moved the malayan fern, amazon sword, and moss bass to the 20g! Hope they will survive!

Can these plants grow without being submerged in the substrate? The roots of the plant are not planted but instead anchored down.

So i have some Malayan fern and amazon swords that i would like to pot. What are some cheap and easy ways to go about doing this. What kind of soil from lowes or home depot can i use?

Better luck next time!

I have a albino 3" bichir with my 3" peacocks and haps. They usually leave each other alone. Before that i had my bichir with my mbunas. I have a 40g breeder now and will be upgrading to a 90 -120 g tank. Peaceful combo IMO. The bichir will eat any fish it can fit in its mouth. So as long as...

Ok what if i got a better filter? Can i house 8 cichlids?

Yea your right. So how many cichlids should i have in the 20 gallon with a sponge filter and a fluval u2?

Your supposed to overstock cichlid tanks to reduce aggression buddy.

What if i added a fluval u2?
