It looks a little different now but I moved out of my parents and haven't been able to move it yet

I'm going to be upgrading to a 185g tank and need to know what's the best, more efficient filtration to use on a tank this size. I'm keeping SA cichlids and some catfish. Right now I have a 55g tank with two Penguin 350 filters which is obviously not going to be sufficient enough. Also what's...

Schooling fish are ones that swim around together and prefer to have a group such as tetras, rainbows, etc. if you want one or two larger fish you could try a gourami. There are several to choose from and they're all pretty and graceful. I would only recommend one for a tank your size because...

Rainbows go great with tetras. I used to have all the tetras you do with various rainbows. You still have some room in there as long as you have proper filtration and do regular cleaning. I had about 60 fish in my old 55g with no issues. I ran two Penguin 350 filters and did a 10g water change...

A 19g doesn't give you much room for anything too much bigger. Are you looking for a larger schooling fish or one or two larger fish that don't school? You can go with a few rainbows, other types of tetras, or a gourami or some sort

nope it was ammonia. I upgraded from a 29g to a 55g using the same filter and all and the tank was cycled at its last home but I guess that my filter didnt have enough bacteria built up to handle the increase. Not to mention that I added the adult severum a couple days prior so I'm sure he's...

How many gallons is your tank? What type of filtration are you using? What is the PH of your water? All these questions will get you better answers. Also what type of fish have you been lookning at getting?

I have two green severums that are breeding. The female laid eggs and the male has successfully fertilized them. Is it ok to do a PWC? the ammonia level is a little high

The Orangethroat is awesome

They should be fine. The cories I had always breathed fast and were pretty lazy. Just keep an eye on their eating habits and coloration.

There are a lot to choose from, but I think the easiest would probably be Java moss. In my experience, it grows the fastest, can thrive in some of the worst conditions and will spread with no problems

Moss is definitely the way to go to get that natural feel finished off. Everything so far looks great. Are you keeping any fish in there?

You can fit a crazy amount of community fish in a tank that size. That's the the minimum tank size I want to upgrade to when I have the finances. Get some pics up so we can check out and follow the process with you

I just purchased an adult green severum on Friday and he's only eaten one time since I got him. I've fed with the lights off every time and even backed away from the tank after dropping the food in. He was fed pellets with no problems in his old tank, but now he won't eat anything except the...

It appears a little too small to tell yet

They won't be able to fit them in their mouth unless you get babies. So I wouldn't worry about it. Also I doubt a ram could catch a neon

Breeding is where you'll see most of your problems. They'll get more aggressive towards all other fish to protect their eggs and fry so just make sure everyone has their space
