    Who is your tank boss?

    The boss of my tank is my pleco (Gord)...he is only aggressive when other fish are in or near his cave...none of the other fish dare venture into his cave anymore though my Female Blue Ram chases the Male around, but I think they're just having fun ...and my rainbow fish are as dosile as a snail

From what I've heard they are the kind that don't require large shoals and I was thinking about maybe getting 3 or 4 for my 33 gallon community tank. It has a fair amount of water movement, it has about 7 medium sized plants, a log, and...

    UGLY

    shopping list

    you don't want to use medicines for most bottom feeders (Corys, plecos etc.) they don't take it too well if you get ich in your tank (whitespot), just change 25% of the water every day, and keep the temperature around 80 degrees. that's what I have done in the past, it worked fine sure it's a...
