    Pictus Catfish

    I may be wrong on this, but I always thought pictus catfish need at least 75 gallons. They don't get big, but they are movers I guess.

    55g stocking check

    AqAdvisor is conservative. If you're an experienced aquarist, you could handle as much as 130 percent stocking level.

    Hand-feeding

    So I recently got an elephantnose (I have multiple posts up right now), and I know they can be difficult to feed if they don't get hand-fed. Does anyone know how to train a fish to accept food from the hand?

    Feeder tank

    My Oscar is getting to the size where he can start to eat other fish, especially small goldfish. I am think of making a separate tank that has just goldfish in for the sake of feeding Grouch. Is this a lofty goal? Is breeding goldfish easy to do in a 20g? I don't want to do just regular feeders...

    See, on other forums I have been getting different advice. One said to do biological filtration in the top two, but mechanical in the last. Another said to use activated carbon in one of the trays.

    The primary food source for my blood parrot is blood worms. Sometimes flakes, but he really enjoys algae wafers for some reason. I also hear blood parrots like peas.
