Sorry i came off a little rude in my last post. I listened to a sales rep the other day advise a costomer that it was ok to simalarly stock a 40 and stories like this frustrate the heck outa me. I aplogize sara i read your other post with the back story to this situation. And its not your fault...

Cool little product thnks for the info

You should be ok as long as you kept the original filter media in your filters to seed. Your nitrates are high tho. It is likely due to the substrate being stirred up during the move. I would be inclined to test water paramters one in the am and once in the pm for the next two weeks just to be...

So do you use the hot pack you stick in your mittons lol. Thats what i was thinking of using anf placing it under the bag in a small styrofoam cooler with an old towel packed all around that to prevent shifting and keeping heat in. I know thosee things get pretty warm for the first hour or two...

Im wondering if anyone has shipped fry via ups or priority post? Or recived for that matter. Im wondering how they keep the water temp correct. Do you just put one of those hot packs in the cooler with the bag or does this add too much heat. A friend wants me to overnight ship some convit fry...

Not sure bout the chiclids but i know for certian that the two cat fish are pitcus these are eating machines and will get very big. If i read correct you have a 40 gal tank? If this is the case then they need to go asap. You will need a minimum of 200gal to have a chance at housing all these...

The bottom pic the single fish is deffinatly a male, a nice one too. The top pic with the two in frame is a little harder to tell with out the dorsel fin up full. I think its female but not sure. When it is swimming around the tank, if the back of the dorsel fin is more rounded and dosnt come to...

If u have oscars id get them out asap. As soon as they start free swimming the oscars will get them. Even a rubermaid bin will work or something to the effect. If have a 5 or a 10 gallon thats perfect you can siphon off enough water out of your display tank to keep them going. Course you will...

My bowfeont display tank (firemouth platty daino and red tailded shark) The other is my octagon which is now my convit breeder)

I definatly see your point, i do trust my water and set ups and have not had any issues. I have always figured that juviniles are very vulnerable to almost everything i want to give them the best start possibe. That being said when i pick my breeders out of my hatches they dont get treated so i...
