i've got 2 little oscars (1.5-2 inches) in my 29 gallon... i just added a cool, tiny (1 inch) $30 pelco to the tank to keep things clean... the guy at the store said they won't bother it, and so far they haven't. but will they? i could put him in the 55 but the (big) claw frog might eat him?
what do you think..
i got a heater for the oscars and they seem much happier (the tiger's markings are really defined now) i keep it at about 78 degrees.. that's good huh? BUT, i've been hearing how they tend to break heaters when they're older/bigger.. this is a glass encased heater... if they break it would it send electricity through the tank??? that could get ugly.....
i know 29 gallons isn't enough for 2, much less 1 really... so if they're about 2 inches now, how long do i have until they are big....
so yeah, is my new pelco safe..? should i put him in the 55? how long until these oscars are too big for the 29 (i know someone's gonna say they are already)? is this heater danegerous? (heetmaster 15")....... and, they hide behind plants a lot.. is that normal
thanks
