Thanks very much guys. My mum named his 'Gizmo' today lol

I have 3 of them, ranging from 1.5in to 3.5in. I have 1 light in there, which is a Triton 38W 42in. Whats the best sort of light for plant growth and for colour enhancement in fish??? Cheers Alex

Yea, the big clown loaches have to be some of the most beautfil fish. I know they can reach 12in, but I doubt my 2 will get much bigger because they are in a 4ft tank with quite a few other fish, and they spend most their time in their little 'nest' together lol. Cheers Alex

It does look simular to the one u have just shown me, but its more colourful and the shiny light blue spots under the eyes are much brighter. Also there is a yellow/orange line going across the top of their top fin. Cheers Alex

Sorry. Will remember in future

I just did a search on google using those two names you guys gave me, but they dont match the ones in my tank. I will try and get some better pics later tonight, because those are a lil dark. Cheers Alex

Thanks very much guys

I bought the clown loaches and the shark about 6 months ago for £10 each. They have grown about 1/2in since then, but I doubt they will grow much larger. I have been told that you can grow clown loachs from about 1in to 6inin about a year, as long as they have a nice big tank with plenty of...

Thanks very much tammyliz. Any1 else know anything about putting rocks in tropical and brackish tanks, and which ones are ok and which ones arnt??? Cheers Alex

Hey all, Buying pieces of wood, rocks and plants is very expencive in fish shops as im sure you all know. I was just wandering if any of you get those things from out in the garden or at any shops where it is much cheaper. Also how do you go about treating the wood, rocks and plants before...

Thanks for the help everyone. Nmonks, thanks for the great list. It will comein great use. SLC Flyfishing, I didn't know about the stress on the filter. But now that i know, iwill have few chichlids with my puffers. prob only about 4. Cheers Alex

Cheers for the help. AMS, I was just stating that I would have rocks in the tank, just so it looks like a chichlid setup. Also, can any1 tell me themost common chiclids that are able to live with figer of 8s in slightly brackish water??? Cheers

Cheers for the fast help. What I will do then is set up another tank with sand, rocks and few plants. I will keep just chiclids and figure of 8s in there, and a fish or 2 to clean the tank (can u think of any?) I have been reading the links you gave me and its great help. It does say that...
