    I got bored.

    Here's the tank all finished except for cycling and then adding fish. I've made up my mind and am going with the kribs. Found a local breeder with some beautiful looking fish. Still not sure if I like the amount of rock though. I might end up removing a couple or few pieces. Opinions and or...

    I think as far as another hyper agressive tank goes I want to hold off until I get my 125 up and running with the africans again. Probably early next year. Reason being, I'm more comfortable overstocking that tank because my filtration is soooo much better.

    And then I'd feel obligated to set up breeder tanks lol and I've got other tank plans before that happens again. Already went through that with my malawi tank. Those Fish breed like crazy...

    I've never had convicts but I'm not fond of the idea of either rehoming any other fish during mating or having only convicts

    Nice. I've always wanted discus just never had a tank I thought was right for them. I want like a 65 tall. Or bigger but has to be tall. I think it would showcase the fish better. That's just me though

    Don't want mbuna my 125 was a malawi cichlid tank and that's my plan for it when I set it back up. I'm not a huge fan of oscars cus they get to big and then they get lazy, and I've done oscars already. Was thinking kribs since its still a cichild and I could have more since they stay smaller...

    So I'm still not sure what the stock is going to be yet, but I'm very tempted to try some kribs... anybody here ever keep any?

    That's a good deal if the tank holds water. And really even if it doesn't, 30 bucks for a few tubes of silicon and a few hours resealing(if you trust yourself), I'd buy it.

    I can relate. I painted my 72 and hung my filters too soon and scratched some paint off and before I moved it inside of a closet you could see daylight and it drove me nuts...

    Keep your eyes on craigslist. I just seen a reef ready 125 with stand canopy and sump tank for 350. And a tank only for I think 75. I woulda jumped on the deal but I have nowhere to keep anymore empty aquariums. The problems of an addict.... lmao

    Lol yea I've had this one a 75 I got off craigs list and a 125 that got taken down a few months ago when me and my fiance split and I moved. So figured I'd make some room in my garage.

    House being sprayed for bugs.

    It might depend what chemical it is and how much it gets dispersed into the air but I had to flea bomb my house a few years back and I just shut off my filters and pumps and covered the tank for the two hours I had to be gone and I just aired the house out before uncovering and turning the tank...

    How many angelfish in a 56 gallon

    I'd go with a pair. Angels can get fairly aggressive towards each other when it comes to territory.

    What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

    Thinking about adding a school of. Cardinal tetras... I tried out three at first that were from my parents tank and near death so I took them not sure if they just become a snack for my angels. But two weeks and no issues the angels don't even seem to notice them any more. So I'm going to up my...

    Post your full tank shot here.

    Thankyou! It was all green for a while because the red plants always sell so quickly when the lfs gets them. I love the scarlet temples I have. The upper leaves are red with a real pretty purple on the bottom. Probably my favorite plant in the tank at the moment. I've still got two wisteria that...

    Thanks. Yea I made one using a maxijet and an old siphon vacuum with the co2 line ran into it then stuffed some poly floss to slowe down the water flow so it dissolves more efficiently
