    75 gallon Malawi Tank

    Sorry I didn't get back to you guys! And yes I was going to add more rocks for the mbuna. I just wanted to double check, will the male and group of female electric labs be OK with the male peacocks and haps? I want to know if the male peacocks and haps will harass the female mbuna. Thanks! Sent...

    75 gallon Malawi Tank

    I was planning to add 1 or 2 haps/peacocks and a group of electric lab females, if thats possible. If not, I would probably get 6 or so peacocks/haps to add to the current stock. I'll be sure to take some pictures tomorrow(its late and I don't want to turn the tank lights on) Sent from my Nexus...

    75 gallon Malawi Tank

    I hope everyone has had a Merry Christmas and will have a Happy New Year! Anyways, my question is if this stocking will work or not. In my 75 gallon 4 foot tank(with a sick looking 3d background btw), there is 1 mloto likoma hap 1 electric lab 1 eureka Jake 1 tramitiochromis(sp?) Intermedius 1...

    Ideas for stocking 20 gallon community tank?

    I agree with the Cory catfish suggestion. They are constantly zooming around the tank, in search of their next meal. Maybe you could have some oddball fish. I know that when I was little, upside down catfish really grabbed my attention, especially when they swam upside down. They may get a bit...

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    So, I received the plants a few weeks ago. They were in great condition.:) I think I'm going to order the Shellie's soon! Expect some pictures in a few days. :) Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    building a 2.5 micro planted tank with a betta

    A 2.5 is a bit small for breeding bettas, and even with one, it is a little iffy. If you need some suggestions for stocking, maybe some goldfish crackers would do. :) Anyway, a well planted shrimp tank looks stunning once the colony gets going.

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    I just ordered some live plants from Han Aquatics. Their prices are WAY better. Anyway, my parameters are Ammonia 0.25-0.5ppm Nitrite 5ppm Nitrate 80 ppm Looks like I still have some waiting to do... In case anyone was wondering, I'm ordering the Shellie's from Dave's fish.

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    I was actually thinking about getting some live plants( I know, kind of unrelated, sorry about that). I saw the number of stars on a website called reseller ratings about liveaquaria. 2.5 stars out of 10! There is conflicting info with reviews from that site and reviews on other sites, so I...

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    I've changed my mind on which species to get. I think I'm going with Lamprologus meleagris, or whatever it's called. The tank has been cycling for about 2 and a half weeks. Here's my layout: shell dwellers by mnhoj, on Flickr I wish i could have built the rock structure higher, but I am...

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    OK. I'm getting a tank today, probably a 20 long. I have a filter that's on my established 60 gallon malawi tank. If I put the filter pad from that filter into the new tank's filter, it would cycle pretty much instantly, right? I guess I will just get the multis for the 20. Sent from my Nexus 5...

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    Soooooo.. Let's say that I can get a 40 long. What would a decent stocking list be? Maybe a group of multis, a julidochromis, and could I have some kind of top swimming fish? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Crab in 46 gal?

    I believe most crabs are brackish and do need an air supply, however, there is a species called the Thai micro crab that could live in a freshwater, completely submersed setup. They may be eaten, depending on the size of you fish.(they are called Thai MICRO crabs for a reason) I wouldn't expect...

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    I might be able to get a custom tank. My parents' concerns are more about the weight, and not so much space. What about a tank 48" x 12" x 8"?(L x W x H) would I be able to fit a another species in with the multifasciatus? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    After watching some videos of the multis' behavior, I think I will get them. Is it OK to just buy an unsexed group? When I get the tank set up, I'll post some pictures. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    20 gallon long Tanganyika tank

    I figured the compressiceps are too big. I wish I could get the sardine cichlids, that price tag is a little too big though. Maybe I'll just do a regular planted tank if I can't get anything with the multis. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app
