What Is Your Favorite Fish?

[vanimal]

Breeding alomost any fish costs a lot of money.

 

[Samzter]

Not really... I breed my Cories, Gouramis and livebearers I don't pay for that. I just have to pay for the running of the tank..

What do you have with your discus? I've been thinking about a discus and german blue ram setup. What do you think? My wild caught gbr's water parameters are really close to what discus need "i think"
Any input?

My favorite fish as far as fresh water would have to be either the electric blue hap or the ob peacocks. Gorgeous fish with lots of personality

True giant gourami.
Albino. :3

My LFS has one that is probably 24", plays with wiffle balls, and eats grapes
Lol

Lol

I would like to see fish eat grapes , that must be so cool !!

 

[vanimal]

Don't your fish eat the babies though? And yeah my guppies breed without me even doing anything. All I do is keep the tank running like you said.

Assuming that you're talking to me, I think gbrs are good tankmates for discus. They need basically the same water conditions. How big of a tank are you thinking of? PM me if you want, I dont want to hijack this thread.

Lol

I think mine is around 18.
He follows me as I move around the house from side to side of the tank.
He loves food and attention

I used to have a Jack Dempsey that would do that he actually let me touch him! Lol

If anything I thought you should stay away from a species only tank with gouramis because I read they were mostly aggressive to their own kind..?

IME my gouramis do better in a species tank than community. They Haven't been aggressive to each other at all, even with new additions. But when I tried putting one of them in with my community tank they attached my danios and platys. This is just my experience others may have different results

 

[Samzter]

Have any of your Gouramis mattured tho?

 

[RobbieHadley]

Have any of your Gouramis mattured tho?

Yes I've had most of them for about 5 years now

 

[Samzter]

Wow ... Thats rare! Lol I've got 5 dwarfs

 

[RobbieHadley]

Wow ... Thats rare! Lol I've got 5 dwarfs

Haha is it really that rare? I guess that's why it was considered a weird suggestion. Sorry guys

 

[Samzter]

No I've just never heard of it! I'm glad it worked out though!

 

[vanimal]

Could you keep 3 Cories in a 10 gallon tank?

 

[Samzter]

If they are pygmy Cories then yes , maybe panda but I wouldn't do it. But no other type of cory

 

[Zactheninja]

I'm breeding Pygmy cories :3

 

[vanimal]

Pygmy Cories are the smallest??
