A group of cherry barbs and then build a one-way flow river system, the loaches and barbs should love it

 

[livefishguy124]

what about eels and knife fish, i saw they were from this same area

 

[sinibotia]

I don't think any eels or knifefish are small enough for 40 gallon

 

[peacelizard]

I can't remember the name but I think the smallest listed knife I've seen maxes at like 8"

 

[livefishguy124]

i know that you can put eels in a 55 and mine is the same length.

Can you update us on the current stock in each size tank? That would probably help with suggestions. Thanks!

[livefishguy124]

for my birthday i got from my parents, a 200 watt heater, a marine land emperor 400, for the 90 gallon, and best of all i got a fluval aqua sky 48"-60" light, we saw it a petco for $130, it is so cool, it has a wireless remote, that has 3 storm settings, with lightning, 3 moonlight settings, a sunrise/sunset setting, you can customize color, to have different quality's and looks and you can program light colors to, very cool

P.S, if you ever return the light just know that a finnex planted plus can do all that and have a higher PAR, for a Lowe price

but i need some new florescent light bulbs 24 inch t5s where can i get plant bulbs for a lower price, what bulb do you recommend?

 

[livefishguy124]

[livefishguy124]

Not exactly spot lights, but you can use 13w or 26w 6700k CFL bulbs paired with clamp on dome lights. Both available at most hardware stores.

Agreed 100%.
I have found a pretty powerful spiral compact 6700k that works well with clip on lights..

 

[Eggheadfish]

Aquasky lights are cool, I have them on 5 of my tanks. I also use clamp on shop lights with 13w CFLs.
