My Asian tank is still simply missing something. It has so many hidey holes, all the back is covered with the moss, the caves, the nooks, the crannies and noone uses them. Sure the panda garra will flow out of the rocks sometimes, but they hang out on the glass or around, looking for food. On...

So I am guessing no experience then :)

You could take them and put them in the tank separated by glass portions until you get females and then do a mix and match? As long as they have shells and dont see each other too much, they will do ok solitary. I had a last remaining female multifasciatus live alone for the last year or more...

Hello did anyone here ever successfully breed rummynose tetra ( I have the bleheri ones)? If yes, could I have any tips? I would like to try that. Also any tips on how to catch the torpedoes? side note, I have has my bleheri for 10 months now, I have a group of 18 and they were various sizes...

I wish I could get this fish to breed. I have seen enough breeding behavior during the summer, but no babies. I wonder if it is the ramshorns or the shrimp. I am trying to reduce the snails. I have other tanks breeding with snails, but most babies are surface dwelling. I wonder if there is...

I should rename the topic, since the tank is the same, the snails are the same but the fish are not. After not having luck with the honey gouramis, I used this tank to breed white cloud minnows and then bought a group of pseudomugil luminatus. They were adult, so I got 5 males, 5 females. I have...

Forgot to mention I have three pairs of clown killifish at this moment. I assume I cant really go more than 10 fish in the levels, as the territory squabbles might be too much then

I have seen this mentioned few times on reddit or other forums, but never how it ended, if it worked out well. Just that people are considering it or have trouble feeding dry food. I have my clown killifish for just two months now, so ofcourse I am not looking to add anything right now, but...

I love honey gouramis too, but i ordered two times already from asian breeders and lost the fish in five weeks, no signs. I have a school of sterbais corydoras in my other tank and i have rummynose with them, much livelier than neons :) i also have ember tetras, the most boring tetra ever in my...

Forgot to include those. I have pH around 7, with the botanicals making it a bit lower. Water is soft, i don't remember the numbers exactly though. I keep many other fish and most prosper so i would say i am in the sweet spot with water parameters for most fish. I stay away from any live-bearers...

Hi. I have a cube 40x40x40 cm. Set up since June, i used it for fry rearing or just a spare tank. It has a coconut cave, a ceramic tunnel, some wood, floating plants, normal plants, sponge filter and now a heater. I know cubes are not ideal tanks and the dimensions are too small for most fish...

I dont think there is one for you A guy here has an interresting and similar combo (or at least idea, he does se asia) : 8x Danio Sysphigmatus (large, live, jumpers) 10x Garra flavatra 6x Gastromyzon punculatus 6x Pangio kuhlii in a 150 liter tank And another...

They were doing what I consider normal behavior - stuck on glass or rocks, sucking This is the last one this is like two months back and back in february

The tank has been running for 11 months, quick cycled with other tank gunk and the sponge, plants from other tanks, mixed substrate. I waited a month before adding minnows, two more months before adding sewellia. There is no chance that the hillstream are hiding, i checked the tank few times...

So, my attempts at keeping hillstream loaches (sewellia lineolata) failed. I waited three months after a quick setup and made a lot of algae growth before adding my first batch of 5 hillstreams. I lost two in 5 months, simply stopped seeing them, never found bodies. Bought two more in June, lost...

I am just afraid they are a tad boring in behavior aspects. I don't know. Never had them

They are definitely on my list for hatchet fish replacement for a while. Will have to check availability here though

As always (and as everyone) I would like your advice on stocking. I have a tank and in this setup it has been running for two years. I added some plants, removed some other, added some fish, removed all rabbit snails, but overall I feel like a change, even a small one might no be a bad idea. I...

So I had zero luck collecting the eggs and making them hatch in the breeding box or keeping the fry alive. I opted instead of heavy feeding of the adult tank, and I have two fry in the main tank for at least three weeks, growing steadily. All fingers crossed

I am asking because I have a microworm culture, walter worm culture and may get my hands on a banana worm culture soon. Is there realistically difference for the fish in nutrients or is it like saying chicken from a different breed? I am asking because of my indostomus paradoxus. I feed them...

True that sounds way more natural Since I have you here, could you give me two tips: the paramecium cultures look good but I have issues collecting them, from the tests the water in them is not so good. I do not have a siphon, how do I move them to cleaner water, do you have any tips? For...
