My 10g Freshwater

kyle sicard · Mar 4, 2008

it only has 1 fish which is a sucker fish that's hiding in the log =)

I plan to add 4 or 5 guppies some cherry shrimp and a african dwarf frog =) and maybe use guppy babies as feeder fish for my snowlfake eel in my 125g reef tank which is posted below. In below i mean in a different topic called my 125g salt reef

Have you been testing ammonia and nitrite? Once you see a 0 for both, then you can slowly start to add fish. Could take anywhere from 3-4 weeks...

A suckerfish!? That's a pleco! A very nice one too... Looks like a variant of a bn.

That will be a nice stocking.

before you add anymore fish have you tested your ammonia and nitrite, if not please do as these are deadly to fish and should always be 0

I'm worried about my pleco and fiddler crab. If there were cock fights in water this would be what one looked like they cosntantly attack each other. I've seen my fiddler crab pick the pleco up with it's claw clim on my heater and drop him off the top of it. Then my pleco constantly rams the fiddler crab. What should I do?

You should separate them, seeing as how they need different water conditions anyways. The pleco is freshwater, and the fiddler crab is amphibious and requires brackish water.

dizzied is right!

O jeeze how long can the fiddler substain freshwater?

And would my bamboo shrimp and guppy be ok in brackish?

not sure about shrimp, but guppies DO NOT do well in brackesh.

they may survive.

but not likely.

sorry to burst your bubble :unsure:
