Aquarium Advice Regular
In about a year and a half I will be moving and getting a 75-90 gallon in my new house but until then I rent, so I need to stay small. I have a 26 gallon with 36 fish and two frogs. I know it is a lot but I get lots of opinions on the fish load and some say it is fine and some don't . UGGH. My fish tend to hide so I kept getting more. The tank is in a room not traveled much so they are skiddish. So here is what I think is my only option - buy an additional (economy) 20 gallon and split fish to get me thru the next year to year and a half. So I am going to get a 20 gallon with an aquaclear filter for now. I need two suggestions? What type of light should I get for live plants (I will move some out of my 26g), how do I avoid the cycling process, if I need to add fish (at least angels) today. Biospira? Water from tank? It will be virtually impossible to take gravel from this tank as I have lots of plants. And three (okay I said two questions, sorry) how should I divide the fish. Should I just put the angels in the new tank (they are getting bigger that is why I am doing this) or should I take more? This is what I have:
4 cories, 2 kuhli's, 2 frosgs, 2 dwarf sunset gouramis, 4 angels, 3 redfin tetras, 1 black skirt tetra, 6 red eye tetras, 7 cardinal tetras, 1 algae eater, 5 zebra danios. I am going to the fish store today so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
