Ended up getting the fluval c4 on amazon. Ty for all the helpful responses.

So I think I am gonna go hob filter. Either an aquaclear 110 or a fluval c4. Has anybody here used a fluval c4?

What type of canister do you use?

Had my 75g for about 5 years. My filtration has always been an aquaclear 110 and a canister filter. My first canister was an eheim 2215 and second was a sunsun. I cracked the side of the eheim and now the sunsun won't work. Both I had trouble cleaning without making a mess. The sunsun was...

Currently have a 75g with a juvenile green Severum and a juvenile firemouth. Plan to get a school of Columbian tetras for dither. Should I risk getting some more cichlids? If so any suggestions ? Don't want breeding pairs.

Nope not close.

Just out of curiosity, where are you located

Never really was able to get mine to eat anything but live brine shrimp or pond snails. Occasionally would eat frozen bloodworms. Cute guy but was such a night mare to keep fed.

Like the Cupido cichlid in your pic. Beautiful.

Gonna just invest more in rocks and driftwood. Get a few plant clippings and see how it goes. Any pics people can show me of their cichlid tanks.

Want plants. Just wondering if plants can be safe. Never owned any cichlid but a ram. Just trying to get input of whether I can plant a cichlid tank. Would rather get input instead of wasting money on plants that will become severum salad.

Cycling a 75g tank Planned stock Green Severum Blue Acara School of Columbian tetras Not sure yet about bottom inhabitants Reading that the severum likes to eat all plants. Is there any severum safe plants for them. Any other decorating advice that won't cost much. Experienced cichlid...

Floating plants

I guess I hear jack Dempsey and just think aggression. If you had a 75g and wanted to make a jd a centerpiece what else would you add.

Decided to try Columbia tetras

So spent some time at the Lfs store just watching the oscars and the green severums. Think I am gonna go with a severum. Like how the adults look better. Then maybe make it a community tank with the severum as the centerpiece. Maybe just a school of corys. Any suggestions for another school...

Have had pearls in the past. Really leaning towards som type of new world cichlid tank

Going to be my only tank. Used to suffer from mts and got overwhelmed. I read you can't plant the tank at all? So basically the tank will just be some pieces of driftwood. Just scared the tank will be boring looking. How active are oscars.

About to start setting up a 75g tank. Was looking for a wet pet and have decided go with a new world cichlid set up. My one option is a single oscar. Other option is a tank centered around a green severum. Maybe pair him with another peaceful cichlid. Don't want another severum cause I...

Besides not turning on the heaters how would I treat goldfish differently.

Guess I am just old school about goldfish. Never really experienced them outside of a fishbowl. Which I know is not good.

What about a green Severum. Do they have much personality

Looking for suggestions for a single or pair of fish for a 75 gallons tank besides an oscar. Not going to upgrade my tank size so obviously can't outgrow 75g. Don't want anything that is difficult to feed. Would love a fish that will interact with me. Have some time to decide cause tank is...

Should I feed more then normal each time. Inhabitants are two gupppies, an adf and a mystery snail.

Sister is going on vacation and wants me to feed fish while she is away. She wants me to actually move tank to my place which I really don't want to do even though only 10g. So over two weeks how often do I need to go over to feed fish. She overfeeds anyway so I think some fasting is ok. Is...
