I would suggest some Boraras brigittae or some endlers, No dwarf gourami, they need at least 15 Gallons. I still think guppies need more room than that, I would get some shrimp, pygmy cories still need a bigger tank that that. Perhaps some African Dwarf Frogs? Or maybe even a betta?

A Blue Acara will need a bigger tank than a 110 unless your talking gallons.

I've been reading about these lately, most people seem to say they are super aggressive and are cold blooded killers.

I wouldn't go for that filter If I were you.

Well that would be the bare minimum, really they need a 4ft to be happy. Not sure on it though, it will work with kribs but not sure on the tank size.

Balas need 150+ Gallons

Very good reply Wills! I love Denison barbs but the price is what put me off, I guess I will have to add them slowly. Im going for those now, very nice fish! Thanks

Tetratec and Fluval Head to head.

What would be a suitable sized tank to house a whole school of balas in? Thanks

Im not sure on that, I had a molly in with my firemouths (bad I know) it got picked on, but now its rather aggressive and chases them away, moved it in the oscar and tries to starts fight with it, Lol. So yes I would say it does depend but its all about the fishes temperament.

Lol I see

One thing I would like to know about is about frozen bloodworm, my lfs said all CA/SA cannot digest it properly and die from it, Is it true?

Would I need to run 2 FX5 or just one?

Thanks, im tempted to get it now but I know minnnt will be unhappy Lol.

I see no difference, I've had both and they were the same.

Despite what people say mine does a great job of keeping the tank glass clean and clearing out the algae!

Im sticking to pea sized black gravel from now on.

Lol they are very different.

Yes most oscars are placid but as most oscars age their aggression kicks in. Bearing in mind convicts will pick on anything and everything.

Lol I much prefer clowns over kuhlis. Kuhli's are like squiggly worms.

Well the zebras really need a 4ft tank as they are very fast swimmers, the other fish are ok, you should be able to get away with a pair of honeys but that would be it.

Ive seen some people say on the forum if you put an oscar in a 6ft he will reach a ridiculous ize than if he was in a 4 ft. So why is the minimum tank size for an oscar 4ft if it does not allow them to reach their 'ridiculous' size? Isn't this depriving the fish? Just a thought.

Corner ones seem to have less floor space, so its up to you really.

Their not really my thing. I love loaches but i've never had kuhlis so have no idea.

Im not too much a fan of them either.

I have considered it but the price is out of my budget right now, maybe later down the line.

A bigger type of catfish or a catfish species tank.

Did yours come out in the day? Mine always out and about cleaning and such, he hogs all of the bloodworm to. Just got mine to handfeed to!

LOL I was wondering if they can see good, my lfs they see color but they also chat alot of sugar.

The plecos.

Thats 4ft worth of plecos! Lol How good is their eyesight?

Sorry for your loss

How long have you had them and how big is the tank?

They are New World Cichlids not African. There is a disease that makes fishes eyes go milky, not sure if there's a treatment. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/117598-faq-topics-and-guides/ http://www.fishyfarmacy.com/fish_diseases/eyes.html

My mum drives me a bit crazy, I told her im getting another tank for my room in MY house, she says I don't need one and ive got enough tanks :S . Im like 'hello? This is my house? Lol.

Lol the 900 will be sometime from now but he will be the first one in their. He will be getting a much bigger tank soon, he still eats the same, he isn't bloated, just leaves less waste than he use to. I thought common plecs don't tolerate their own type? How do you sex them?

I will be running 2 externals in a 4ft Or 5ft, haven't decided yet and not sure on which one, i'm now hearing great reviews on the eheim, Which would you go for?

Lol my common wont touch cucumber, he is getting very territorial though, and hes making less waste as he ages, is it normal?

:D He will be getting an upgrade soon aswell. I like the idea of having a 24inch plec Lol. He loves his veg. Broccoli is a favorite of his.
