I acquired a 75 gallon with the following fish: 8 Black Skirted Tetra 1 Yellow Lab 1 Common Pleco I have always wanted rope fish and also have been interested in bichirs, so I went to an upscale LFS nearby to pick up either 2 ropes or 1 rope and 1 bichir (was wanting senegal). The guy who was...

I have a 75 gallon that I acquired from someone (already cycled with preexisting fish) that's all set up and ready for an aquascape. I'm not currently at home and will have to take a look at the wattage, but it seems to be a pretty strong fluorescent bulb. The substrate is sand and smooth...
