Be careful with the betta. Each has its own personailtys, mine would slaughter a frog. He hunts snails, and has killed a 2" long ($13) marble shrimp.

How? That would be good to know, I can only sex them by the presence of a gonopodium.

You don't use it for bio, you use it for amazing mechanical :)

Don't use cheap plastic plants with bettas, they will get torn fins.

Ammonia is very toxic to fish, so change 50% of the water daily to combat permanent damage :)

Ok, first off, a little background. I am 18, a sneior in highschool. I take care of the Video Yearbook's 54g corner fish tank. In this tank is one three year old , 12in+ tiger oscar, Devon, a 5 inch silver dollar, Ben, and a 4 inch Turqouise Severum. Now, I know it is overstocked, and on Friday...

I just cut the head off, very quick and humane. Working in a pet store, I have to do this too frequently :(

Sounds like you have a standard 55g, but either way I think it will work.

Tiger salamanders live for more than 10 years. Touching slamanders is very harmful to them. THe oils and such in your skin damage their sensitive membranes. They actaully breath through their skin, especially the lungless salamnaders. While Tiger salamanders are mole salamanders, touching...

You cannot hold a salamander or newt lol :)

THanks :) No salt water for me, too much work and money haha :) And if I did slatwater/nano, I'd go for a mantis shrimp lol :)

Nevermind then lol :) I guess its a cichld-forum.com thing after all lol :)

Take out the serpaes, and up water cahnges to 40%, and you shopuld be fine.

Your fine. I would return the clown, or get 2 more. You also need 3 more corries. So I would return the clown.

I would also recomend lowering the temperature a few degrees.

Wet pet normally refers to a single fish that interacts with the owner, taking food from your hand, following you around the room, possibly even letting you pet it. Many large scouth/central american cichlids fit this description. I wanna know the smallest of these wet pets :) I guessw the term...

How many do/did you have? I have read at least 8 are needed to thwart aggression. Also, what size tank?

Ah, I believe I should have explained myself a little better :) By wet pet, I mean doggy like, like an oscar or midas, etc. lol I already have 55g mbuna tank, 30g angel tank, and 2.5 planted white cloud tank :) Plus a male midas in a 90 :) My midas is/was my favorite, he WAS in the 55, but...

What is the smallest wet pet there is? I can have fish in college, but I dont want a 55, I am not sure if there is a maximum tank size, but I think a 55 would be pushing it lol... Thanks :)

When I start college this August, I plan on setting up a ten gallon with some GBRs... hope that will go well :)

What kind of fish are you talking about? Is this a 15 long? I could see 20 small fish in that, easily. What kind of filtration are we talking? I have a 2.5 that is heavily planted with 3 ottos and 8 white clouds. You think its a lot? Tell that to my fish who are pigs, and have colors you...

Well, I just know that on average, for example, a Midas cichlid will grow 1-2" a month, until it hits about 7", after which it will slow down. They also grow to about 16" max, average around 12". I understand what your saying, so whats the life expectancy of a senegal bichir? Does anyone have...

Omega ONE is almost as good as NLS. Don't worry :)

I'd say big cichlids like midas or oscar use their eyes.

I have 1.2 guppies in there, but have yet to see fry, and its been a month. Maybe I should get 1.2 platties as well...
