Aquarium Advice Newbie
Ok so I got these 2 tanks. Here they are (I measured my actual tanks not got looked up 38 and 35 gallon dimentions):
38 Gallon Rectangle Tank
-Length: 36in
-Width: 12.25in
-Height:19.75in
35 Gallon Hexagonal Tank
-Length: 11.5in
-Height: 24.5in
-Sides: 6 (obviously)
I really got my heart set on Angelfish and Blue Gourami. Its going to be awhile before i do this (Im fixing up the tanks slowly as i gather enough money to get filters and not and Im also painting the a sea scape on the stand of the 35 gallon tank) but I just want to have all the information first. Here are my questions:
1.) What all do I need for setting up these tanks? Types of filtration? (just basically everything I need to buy these tanks to get them up and running before I go crazy with fish) (and besides like rocks and plants and all that jazz)
2.) Would these tank sizes work for Angelfish and Blue Gourami? (yes I do know that Angels can grow up to 6in and Blue Gourami can grow up to 3in)
3.) I was planning on getting 3 baby Angelfish and about 3-4 Blue Gourami (buying them when they were originally placed in the same tank so they wont fight amongst eachother). Once 2 Angelfish pair up, I would move the other Angel to the 35 gallon and so that one wont get lonely move also 1-2 Blue Gourami's along with it. Will this work?
4.) How do you tell if an Angelfish has paired up EXACTLY?
5.) How old/size are the Angelfish when they do start to pair up?
Thank you for all the help in advance
