Hi Fin Banded Shark
Orange...
cool..I'll keep an eye on them. It seems to be pretty light chasing. No hitting or continual chasing. I dont think he is one of the mean ones...I've heard they can be pretty bad...he is in the tank with guppies and they are doing just fine.
Has anyone heard of anyone adding a red ear'd slider (turtle) to their aquarium? I have a 175 and think it would be pretty cool. I understand they have to have a place to get out of the water and a U.V light for the health of their shell, but other than that is there any problem with putting one...
I am setting up a 175gal S.A. Tank. I dont like the usual "nothing but display cichlids" look. I would like it to look more natural. In a lake or river you have smaller fish such as Tin Foil barbs, Danio's..that kind of thing. I know there is a risk that the S.A.'s will eat them, but to me thats...
I recently switched my salt 175gal to a freshwater. I'm going to be going with unusual South American Cichilds. I've been keeping my eyes open around town and finally picked up my first two fish...Blood parrots. They were added about a week a part. I got a great deal on one about the size of a...
Thanks for the input guys! I dont hav time to respond right now b/c its getting a little late and I have to be up early. But I definately will tomorrow. Thanks again! :mrgreen:
In part one (in the plant forum), I mentioned that I started with salt..did that for 15 years and recently switched to fresh. Having been in salt, I want something a little more impressive than mollies and swords (no offense). I have done a lot of research on discus and believe I have settled...
The mh lights were two 175watt mh lights and two vho's (cant remember the output). And yeah, everyone told me the intense light would be too much for the tank. I sold them because I needed the money to convert the tank and because they draw alot of electricity. My electric bill dropped...
Yeah, I'm doing it backwards. I was in saltwater for 15 years and now I'm going to switch to freshwater. Its a 175gal reef ready tank with a 40gal sump. I'll be doing a discus tank with ALOT of community fish.
After 15 years, I'm by no means a newbie to the hobby, but...I have little to no...
LOL...how would you like it if your fish did that? The tank is sitting on the night stand....one yells across the aquarium. "Come quick! their doing it again!" (2nd fish) "Damn..their worse than rabbits!" All the fish are at the front/center of the tank watching with thier noses against the glass.
Basically the way it works is this...you have a cylinder with a power head pushing water and air in....you have a collection chamber at the top and a outlet for the water (they are seperate from each other). If I were to shut of the air, it would swirl the water around in the chamber before it...
