    Tankmates for fullsize Koi Angel

    I'm thinking about adding some of those as they're quite zippy and the cories usually just hid in the moss and rocks anyways. Yea mine is ~ 5 inches fin to fin and she is moody all the time!

    angelfish

    I have had 1angel fish in my 29 for ~ 3 years already. I got her when she was quarter size and right now she's the size of my hand! She think she's the queen of the tank and will chase the cories around sometimes when she sees them.

I currently have a 29g with a 20W, someone messages me and says that they have a 130W PowerCompact light and is going to let it go for 50 dollars O_O. I've never had a high WPG tank in my life.

    schooling colorful non-fin-nipping fish recommendations

    I just returned my red serpae tetras as they nipped at my angel far too much. They were VERY colorful though... I need recommendations? I want something that schools but are peaceful and hopefully my angel won't devour. I currently have in my 29g 1 koi angel 6 pepperer cories.

    This is in regards of testing my water parameters... When I test for NitrITES I fill the tube... add the solution, it IMMEDIATELY turns purple and then 5 minutes later it will be blue saying nitrITES are zero. This happens with my ammonia test too. Should I be worried that when I first drop...

    asking LFS to order fish?

    Hi guys, my cycle will probably be finishing in a week or so. I was wondering if any of you guys have had success with asking LFS to order fish for you. I'm in the Boston area and I want to find Cories... but a lot of places I check don't have them or they just have albino cories... Thanks

    fishless cycling without a filter?

    I just started fishless in my 20g long. My filter should be here in the next couple of days. I'm just wondering if it's ok to start without a filter? I added ammonia into it to bring it to about 5ppm. Just wanted to get a few days headstart because I'm very anxious to put in there!
