Do they like sand better, by the way? I saw that sand on your tank and I have gravel, thinking about making the switch... is it worth it? I'm worried about not knowing how to vacuum that sand though.

Oh my god they really are beautiful! Those are some nice fish, good job! Do you think the ones I have(from the two bad pictures I took)will get that yellow touch?The dark one seems to be a male and the lighter one a female, but I don't see that much yellow in them like yours seem to have. I will...

Hey, so I started a thread before, but now I believe I got them right(male and female) So here are two pics, I will be posting more later today, one is dark( I think the male) and the other one is light, getting yellow(female) So, my salvinis are not quite yellow(they were grouped in a 15G...

Pictures are here sorry I'm too late!!! So can anyone tell anything about their color ?

Hi guys, I'm about to go to work so I can't take pics(will do tonight). I came accross two beautiful Salvini at my local petstore and was told that they would turn yellow. I googled salvini fish and they all seem to be yellow except for a few(1 for every 20 pics). Now the ones I saw were dark...

Those are some awesome Discus you got there! Good luck, crystal clear water will be needed but I guess the guys already told you :lol:.

The guy has 63.5 US Gallons not 40... just thought you guys should know

Oh, then never mind lol, and yes my crab is fully aquatic, doesn't need land which is why I will die when I get a female for my firemouth =/, it's too cool I love seeing him eat pellets lol, he takes hours to grab a small little pellet. And then there is that beautiful zebra snail that looks...

Funny you said that, my crab looks like a panther crab... I will take a picture tomorrow and try to should it to you, if you don't mind? thanks and why are panther crabs not going to eat the eggs?

yeah, well I am trying to get as much info as possible, if not I will try firemouths as I just love them ...

Well I am thinking about it, if not I want I will try just firemouths... No fish will be in there except for the firemouth and salvini or two firemouths... the crab and snail was just so the tank would look awesome(zebra snails are just too cute) but If I can't I will have to remove them... =/

More like a red claw crab ... and that is sad =/

You could sell the good ones bud... It could be a good idea but try to make a good selection. In my opinion, guppys do get good babies that your local fls might like... If you want to know whether your cichlids will like it or not, the answer is yes, they will, it happened to me unfortunately..

You may be right, I appreciate your comment... not that you got me thinking there is a lot of good in your comment. i might not do this anymore, I just thought that since they were both found in the same lakes or w.e, it'd be nice to breed them but I guess not. I appreciate... any other people...

hmmm if I take that pleco out will it be okay in that case?

cool tank... and 20G will also be perfect for breeding species and all that... pretty cool if you have space and time.

Hi I'm trying to get some for this tank I put in my room. After thinking about what fishes I should put together in the other tanks and everything, I put a 35G tank in my bedroom(too big but I really wanted a firemouth).Anyway, I will be trying to breed firemouths, but I was wondering if it'd be...

Hey I have this friend at work that has said her salvini and his firemouth are breeding!!! It's a nice mix which makes me very impatient to see what they will look like! Anyhow... has anyone done this before? I am trying to get a female now that he told me that :brows::angel:. The ones I saw...

Sorry, is it a male betta that you have in there? Because when I had a male betta in the tank I did not have a problem mixing him with Dwarf gouramis... First started with 1 betta and two dwarf gouramis, then went with two more dwarfs and I was still okay. It worked for me, I guess I was lucky...

Sorry I think I misread your thread. the good bacteria will still stay on your old filter as well. Also, good bacteria can be found in gravel, which is why we should not vacuum gravel and clean filter on the same day... I vacuum on Wednesdays( I make water change while vacuuming) and rinse...

Oh then that explains :lol: because it's hard to find a female unfortunately ... Thanks I'll leave it there for a few days and see, I will also call the store and try to get advice. Thanks again!

You also have good bacteria in the gravel! Yes and no. A lot of people say they should leave the old filter for a few days behind the new one(both at the same time) and then take the old one out and throw it away... Some people say it's fine. So you will get good and bad reviews I think.

Thanks MissSmish, I appreciate the quick answer. The thing is, I saw Firemouths in the same tank that were very dark and some whites(it was like blacks and whites) so I really wanted the Black one(or shall I say grey). The colors are really not the same let's same. And say, where did you get...

Hey!!!!!!! Is your betta a male? If yes you shouldn't have probelms!!! I'm assuming you have two male dwarf gouramis as it is very hard to find a female (most stores only sell the males :hide:). It'll be a bachelor party I have kept them in the same tank and never had a problem. Now do you...

Sorry I'm not here to help but you made my night haha... A picture of your missing eel haha Reported Missing: $1000 for whoever reports him. Sorry I might get you mad but it was kind of funny. My only eel hides in a cave and kind of gets wraped around it(inside, hope I'm making sense), so...
