for your tank size i would say that either the polkadot loach or dojo loach would be best. i believe the minimum tank size for 1 of both types is a 20 gallon so you could probably fit 3 of either loach in your tank. definately do research before you make any purchases.

Hi everyone its been awhile since i have been on here, but i need some help. I recently bought some dw from a local petco. the wood was submerged with no signs of disease on the wood or in the tank. i rinsed them off before i added them to my tank. i have had it since thursday and havent...

There habitat seems perfect then. ya i have them with some polka dot loaches (semiaggressive) and an angel pair.

I have been looking for a pair since july and the other day when i went into petsmart for fish food i saw they finally had a pair! They are cute little guys. Just wanted to share this and was wondering if there is anything i shoukd know that research may not have told me.

Thanks, im not sure if u noticed the clear tubing or not, but i used an old filter intake tube to make a tunnel under the rocks and gravel and my loahes seem too love it.

ya chances are if it says anti-something then not only will it kill what it states but also other living organisms as well. on another note, let it sit for 72 hrs before adding water once you reseal it. then let it sit for alteast 2 weeks in your garage or something. check it everyday for...

Here are the promised pics! The quality isnt great but i will try and get some really good ones later. Let me know ehat you think!

I did it earlier today and i will post some pics tomorrow. its not as drastic as a mountain but it actually looks really cool.

I am doing a thourough cleaning and changing the decor of one of my tanks and am wondering if a "gravel mountain" is a good idea or not.

if it says anti anything then it typically will kill your fish. i know GE Silicone 1 window and door is fish safe.

+1 for golden wonder

Blue botias are a very very neat fish. if i had a bigger tank i woulda bought some from my lfs recently. i believe they are semi aggressive and are one of the bigger loaches, but not as big as the clown loach. i think they max out at around 8-9 inches. check the dudes link for more info and...

yes that is a longfin black skirt tetra.

Just to clear up some possible confusion i am showing everyone some pictures, i just want to make sure people do not have the two confused; picture one is of a gourami and picture two is of a black skirt tetra.

the two fish to the back left apear to be opaline gouramis. the two to the right are black skirt tetras. the fish is not pregnant because they lay eggs, but it does look bloated from overfeeding. What other fish do have with them?

Thanks for the help but sadly i woke up this morning and it was dead :(.

+1 It is a decent (less than good) starting point for starting or critiqueing a stock list. It can be a good resource for researching fish though. I by all means not trying to bash you or your thread, but some people look at this site and others like it as the bible, but that simply isnt how...

One of my angel fish is very very lathargic and is swimming in spirals when it does swim. It seems to want to stay at the top. Spends alot of time laying on its side in plants. Some times it looks like it has alot of energy and will try and swim but just swims in a loop and like i said before...

My albino BNP does the exact same thing! he will just be sitting on a rock and then all of a sudden he just starts spazzing out, it almost looks like he trys to attack the rock.

your link and picture do not work.

Make sure to watch and see if it gets worse because it could potentially be an injury or even a disease, but if he appears to be fine, then chances are that it is just a small mutation in its genes.

I have the same problem with overflow and noise. i just change the cartridges more often and i put one of those glass decoration blocks ontop of the filter and the noise stopped because it was just the lid vibrating crazily. just be carefull it doesnt knock it off.

even if you did get a bnp and common to breed, the eggs more than likely wouldnt be able to be fertilized, and even by some off chance some were, the fish wouldnt survive very long even in perfect water.

congrats man! :)

That doesnt make sense at all. i was just feeding mine and they suck up mouth fulls of gravel to get the shrimp pellets and then spit the gravel back out so i am pretty sure they do not have teeth. they are also smart enough to decide what is food and what is tank mate, because i am pretty...
