Hey Guys,
I'm Big D. I currently am running a 55 gallon A.Cichilid Set up. I inherited 5 with the purchase of the tank. I have never raised these fish but once i began to research and explore there genius I was very Intrigued. I am currently cycling a 125 G to move my fish over. I am currently stocking Haps and Peacocks with Perlmuts, Frontosa and A.Moori _blue Dolphins_and synodontis cats one with heavy spec and one with few. I am also a proud owner of 10 year old 20 inch Rhino pleco I Am getting read to move so while the 125 is currently setup and a family mbrs to cycle I am wondering how in the heck i'm going to transport 125 gallons of cycled water. Also moving the 55 gallon. Whew! Got a task on my hand. WIll post pics later. Also I am running a 10 gal hosp tank. For some reason I have been getting fish that arent adapting well to my tank. They seem to have a tough time acclimating I wonder if its do to my constant PH of 8.2 and the stores typically running 6-7 in their tanks...I have also run into a issue of the fish growing cotton like fungus within a day of adding to my tank..all current fish are funtioning as usual with now issues. I have been taking fish back left and right. lol. So they are hospitaling their tank instead of me using my money. Its hard to get quality well care for fish in my area and you take a lot of chances. Well Thanks for having me.....PS. i have a really crazy auratus and i dont know what to do with him no pet stores will take him..he's pretty but is now biting my other less aggressive fish. What are your thoughts
water as of today.
ph. 8.2
nitrite. 0

Just got me the expensive tester kit yay...
