That's cool with me. I'm just surprised that I have only seen one. I know they can birth up to 80 at a time so I figured it would take at least a day for the fish to eat all those fry... Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I have 2 female swordtails and one male in my 55g community tank. Both of the females look pregnant but today I saw a lone fry swimming around in the tank. I've done some research and I've found that the fry usually come in greater numbers. Do these fish not birth them all at once or should I...

They are not always aggressive. I have two female gold gourami, two female pearl gourami and a male blue gourami in a 55g tank with some assorted tetras, live bearers and a pair of Bolivian rams. One of the golds chases the blue and other gold for about a second every once in a while but besides...

Thanks for the reply! It's like getting blood from a rock around here sometimes! Haha I kinda figured that, I just didn't know they would be so territorial at a young age. I went out and bought a bunch more decor items to break up the tank a little more. It seems to help and they have calmed...

I really like diamond tetras and red eye tetras. Buenos aires are pretty sweet too (but will eat all your plants!) Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I know that German Blue Rams are supposed to be compatible with other community fish. That being said, I just picked up a male juvenile GBR from my LFS and after acclimating him for about 2 hours, I finally transitioned him into my tank. Since his release, he has consistently been chastised by a...

The fluval canisters call for dense foam to light foam then bio max then charcoal then out Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I love my Aqua Clear units but my Fluval 206 canister is the quietest thing on the planet Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I think I'm starting to see some ich like signs on a few of my fish (small white specks on the fins of a buenos aires tetra and a gold gourami. I'd like to treat with heat so I do not have to remove all of the carbon from my filters. I know I need to slowly raise the temp to 86 degrees and keep...

Run them both, that will help transfer the good bacteria to your new filter. You can keep the combo going or leave the AC50 and decommission the old, either works. More filtration is never a bad thing! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

***UPDATE***. He's healthy and the ich has been removed! They will be getting transported to my 40g hex on Monday! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Mostly McDouble's from McD's* lol *= Denotes sarcasm

I appreciate your advice. I am in the same line of thinking as you are, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't wearing rose colored glasses because I wanted to keep them haha. I have a few other tanks I'm going to set up when I can afford new filtration for them. I will probably move some over when...

There is so much contradicting advice on this fish, it's crazy! They seem fine now but who knows about the future...

Filtration: 101% Stock: 128%

Anyone?

So I added some fish today. I hope the LFS didn't lead me astray. I went to a new shop that has a different selection of fish than my normal shop. I told them what I currently had and I added more fish based on what they said we could handle. I'll let you know and hopefully I am good to go! An...

Not a bad idea, don't know if my current one is M or F though. I guess I'll need to sex this one first! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Get a blue lobster. They are awesome pets and a blast to watch! Just make sure your lid is on tight! They are escape artists! You could probably even throw in like 5 -8 danios too. They are fast, top swimmers so they won't get messed with too much!

Below is my 55g tank. I believe I am just a tick below full occupancy on the tank and I wanted to ask around to confirm my suspicions and see if it's possible to add a few other fish from my hex to make room for some fancies. Currently the tank is stocked with: Pearl Gourami x 2 Bolivian Ram...

What kind of fruits and veggies would you recommend? I only have sinking cichlid pellets currently. They don't seem to like them very much, they will spit them out after a few seconds. I do think I'm underfeeding them though, I was just doing flakes once a day, and not a ton of them. I just put...

Yeah, he's been really lethargic and just laying around the bottom, I'm afraid it's starting to spread to the Black Moor as well :-/

I bought the Black Moor about two weeks or so before I got the Celestial Eye. They have both been in there for about a week and a half, maybe two. I have been doing 25% changes the last few days but before that I probably only did one because all of my levels were always good. I was planning on...
