I understand. I hate when I go on trips because I am worried that the people I get to take care of them think " they are just fish". No! They are awesome!

Me again! This is what ( I think) I know: That the females are larger and that their anal fin is straighter. - I think it goes down perpendicular to their body. Males are a bit smaller and their anal fins are crescent shaped. When they mate the male and female will swim/ wiggle alongside one...

Hello, I have 3 silver dollars in a 45 gallon, with a leaf fish, a clown loach, and a peacock eel. I also have a couple female betas in the tank (which are going to be moved soon but everyone else is still small). I am debating if I should get more SDs and try to breed them. I do not know how to...

Hi. I am trying to learn more but this is what I know: That the females are larger and that their anal fin is straighter. - I think it goes down perpendicular to their body. Males are a bit smaller and their anal fins are crescent shaped. ( anal fins are the red fins on SDs) When they mate the...

It was recommended that I get red line sharks 10-ish for my tank ( instead of tiger barbs) and I wanted to know if they would be ok. Also the same person thought that a leaf fish and tiger barbs would be ok and not harm the other fish. I got the live gravel and sand from the fish store! It was...

I will be using a sponge from one of my established tanks to cycle faster.

Ok. I have done some reading but now I want to ask if my tanks filter will be strong enough? I have:a marineland filter pump with the tube and gravel box/filter on the end. It says 120 VAC 15AMP but nothing else. It pumps water up into the hood, through a cartridge(with the sponge and carbon...

good to know! and I will. I was trying to figure out what "the rule" was.

is the rule 1inch of fish per gallon? i don't know which rule you are talking about. also I like tiger barbs and the black ghost knife fish!

I have one of those heaters for one of my quarantine tanks and it works well.

I got my 40 gallon tank with EVERYTHING ( but heater an fish) for $100 even! Even some saltwater stuff.. Check out salvation army you might get lucky!

Similar to these but many have darker leaves.

also, while i am waiting to add the rams what other fish should I add. I don't want the tank to look empty. also, I don't know if it was you who told me but someone said that the peacock eels would not be happy with aggressive fish. Are there any fish (possibly schooling) that I could have that...

thats good to know. I would not be able to house the others so if i buy them I will get a pair. -- I will also look at the bolivian rams. spears are what my local fish breeder calls them.... I'll see if I can find another name...

The lights I have are long fluorescent tubes. Would spears work with the fluorescent tubes? Could I put 6 gbr in my tank?

I am going to put my blue gourami with the two peacock eels in the tank and I am looking at the african butterfly fish and german blue rams. If i get them should they be in the tank alone or as a pair? Also, I was told that angelfish might work with my tank setup. Would they be too aggressive...

30" long 13"wide

Would a dragon goby be ok in a 40 gallon tank and living with the peacock eels?

I agree! I bought 2 gourami when I first started a 10 gal tank a few years ago and the petstore sold me 1 blue and 1 opaline (saying they were both blue) now my blue gourami is sooo mean! I am going to be putting him in a big tank with other fish his size.

What type of substrate do you have in your tank? Also, when you plant any type of plant you want to cover the roots/ bottom with the grave or sand. Then, when you clean your tank be careful not to uproot your plants or they might die. I have a 10 gallon tank that I try to keep planted but my...

Upside down catfish are cute! I just don't want them to be miserable. What about danios? Zebra or possibly giant danios. I would like to put my large opaline gourami inthe tank. He is bossing my other fish around. Also with my tank setup... I am going to add a cave and possibly a PVC tube/ tunnel.

Picture of my tank now:

Ok. I have heard that some fish will get very ill from eating blackworms and would like feeding time to not get too complicated. I read about the baby whales and you can only have one per tank. Also an quite randomly, have you seen a dragon goby before? And do you have any information about them?

Oh god I hate auto correct! Do the other fish eat black worms?
