final question: which of the two produce less waste? im not going to be adding new fish for another 3-4 weeks to help my current fish get used to the tank but i just want to know ahead of time so i dont end up buying the wrong ones i understand that if i add guppies i would most likely...

yea thats what i mean ether guppies or the platys definately not going to add both which of the two do you recomend? keep in mind i already have 2 female and 1 male platys in the tank

did it eat an algae wafer? mine did that once and became very swollen in about an hour just dont feed it for the next 12-24 hours and it will go back to normal

sorry for the confusion about the plecs after going back to the store i found out they are not plecos at all instead they are suckermouth catfish (they look almost identical to plecos) they are actually called Otocinclus Catfish and they only grow to about 2in max they suck on things and...

the store name is Petco its like petsmart but they also cary salt water fish unlike petsmart ive spent over $200 there so i dont think returning them would be much of a problem i'll replace the $1.79 ea. gourami with some 2.79 ea. guppies maybe i'll get an extra so i can have a 2:1...

no scales are sticking up and the fattness has gone down a lot (8hours later) ive decided to take the gouramis back to the store and get some smaller fish (maybe some guppies or zebra danios) i also have 3 red platys in the same 10G tank so i know my tank is extremely overstocked however...

yea for now i keep the food locked up in my room i feed the fish twice a day once in the morning when i wake up(around 7am) and again at around 7pm usually when i feed them all of the food is gone within 2 min

today i went and bought 2 1in plecos for my 10gallon tank which currently has 2 male blue gouramis (which i was told would grow to a max of 3in) so i put in an algae wafer broken into 2 pieces and put them on opposite sides of the tank and an hour later i came back and both pieces were gone...

ive never had plants in an aquarium so the answer is no if you know of some easy (to take care of) plants then please tell me if not dont worry about it

wow thanks for the quick replys i think i'll just take the gouramis back to the store because i really dont want any fish over 3in because my parents will mostly likely overfeed them the plecos are actualy very small about 1in right now so i'll put 1 with the gouramis and 1 with the...

im not really a complete noob when it comes to fishkeeping (ive had goldfish for over a year now which have been very healthy but died due to high levels of amonia) since my goldfish have died (my parents fed them way too much) ive decided to start over completely and this time get tropical...

ive never tried cabbage when i had my goldfish but i did try lettuce and they didnt even come near it however the 3 things that they loved most were broccoli, oranges (cut in big circles), and fresh peas i fed them those 3 things for the first 3 months and they practically doubled in size...
