the one is use is the Eheim 2217 without a doubt any Eheim canister filters are the best on the market IMHO

I plan on getting a bigger tank fairly soon (If the misses will let me a very big tank lol) and moving all my stock into the larger tank.

take mummy guppy out ? then dont worry about her eating them.

Hi everyone! Just a few questions and some advice would be much appreciated before I go to my LFS I currently have a 90gal set up, fully cycled with loads of fish in there. I have 8x Zebra Danios 11x Rummy Nose Tetras 3x Cardinals (Had more but became a snack I think) 7x Guppies (5 males 2...

I like the idea of a couple of female Rams, what about cardinals? are they fin nippers?

Thanks for some of the feedback! I'll take the Algea Eaters out, but will the Danios be ok as I dont think there any more active that the rummys? plus in my LFS they keep Bettas with Discus and said there great tank mates if u have a placid betta, which mine is. But is there any other great...

Oh but thanks for the fast reply! :D

The Danios are no more active than the Rummy Noses Shoaling around all the time and the Rummys are ment to be one of the best tank mates for Discus. I will Remove them if they will be a problem but i dont see how they'd be worse than the rummy noses

I've been looking to add 6 Discus to my 90 Gal. It's a comunity tank but I've removed and rehomed 2 Angel fish, 1 Red tail shark and 3 Bala/Silver Sharks because I no they arn't the best fish to have with Discus. I now have 1 Half Moon Betta, 2 Horseface Loaches, 2 Chinese Algea Eaters, 2...

My tank is cycled, I have 0 ammonia and 0 nitrites in my tank. not sure on nitrates. I have sand in my tank and no gravel vacuum so I cannot do that. I was told I couldn't use medication because the fish dont have scales and it would remove there slimey coating that protects there skin.

voogle? Whats that

I have a comunity tank with 2 pictus catfish, 2 horseface loachs, 10 z danios, 8 rummy nose tetras, 2 algea eaters, 1 albino bristlenose, 2 chinese golden zebra loachs, 5 clown loachs, 4 skunk cory, 1 half moon betta, 8 congo tetras. My clown loachs have ich so i've turned my temperature up...

is there a way to add the salt then extract it later on when everything has cleared up?

I have Angels, red tail shark, bala/silver sharks, skunk cory, golden zebra loaches, pictus catfish, danios, a cichlid, albino bristlenose, chinese algea eaters aswell as the clowns

what type of salt? and wont the salt effect my other fish ?

Eheim 2217 all the way, quiet, reliable, good quality, great support from the company, easy to change media to whatever suits you and is around the same price at the fluval 405 and the eheim does 1000LPH, to my knoledge thats more than the fluval. only thing is some people find the Eheim a bit...

I have 3 Clown loach in my comunity aquarium, 2 i've noticed with white spot, they look as though there iching the sides of there body on my sand substrate and they do have little white dots on the tail fin andback end of there body, I've raised the temp to 32c / 89f to try speed up the life...

Yep I think your spot on there with the cory, I'm now just interested in what my loach is, I've looked around the internet and I think it looks like a Chinese golden zebra loach. Or aka Sinibotia robusta

as for the loach it has a long face going to a point a bit like a horsefase loach, I dont think it's the dario, the mouth is to rounded.

Also what is this Cory it was sold to me at my LFS as a panda cory but when I went to a different FS they also had panda cory that looked different, thought I may aswell put a pic up of my tank to, fairly old pic but its not much different now!

I have a type of zebra loach but I'm not 100% what it is, I'm taking a guess that its a golden zebra loach?

I had 8 in there and they were evil little buggers, took all out apart from 1 female, shes a little agressive from time to time but nothing major at all. all my other fish are in groups or big and tough enough to stand there ground.

I have shut off valves on my input and output i could half close one of these? Would that damage the motor in my filter

Betta fish, Butterfly fish or Gourami's would make good options

a bit off topic but is there away to change the flow on a Eheim 2217? As i want fish that are better suited to slow moving water condition and the Eheim has a very powerful output
