Good point, and the sale is every month. I'm still shooting for getting at least half of the stock done and taken care of. I'm gonna still transfer media, and gonna watch my ammonia closely

I thought about that, I will think about it more, one day im gonna go up there, write down all the prices, add them up, add tax, and do see how much im out. Cardinals are like a dollar more than neons. Plus Tuesday is a sale, so all freshwater fish and plants are buy one get the other for 2...

I have 55 US gallon. My original plan was to slowly plant it and have it fully stocked by Tuesday. On my birthday I got $100, that was Sunday, well today, I received another $100. So that gives me $200 to work with. I can fully plant it and stock it. I'm not worrying about a mini cycle because I...

Think you could do a photo with a tenmis ball for comparison, looks amazing, pictures dont show the size that well, but an excellent looking puffer though.

looks just like the heros sp appendiculatus pic bonzo gave a link to :good:

Usually can tell around the 2 inch size colors of the male and the shape, females aren't as bulky. I have a stunning 3 inch male I've raised. Might keep him and do away with my big male when he gets some size.

I second recommend or third recommend the Male HRP, very nice fish. Males are mild alone, and are no where near as aggressive as Convicts, still can be nasty but not like Cons in anyway. They are true beast fish, even through all the massive in-breeding in them. Imagine a bull Con 'bout 7 inches...

I'm keeping this tank at 7.0 ph, all fish are OK with this, and I may take out the glow lights, cories are just an option. I'm thinking going with 6 celebes, the farowella are very cool, I'm not doing 2 clown plecs, but a clown and a Bulldog. Got the Bulldog today :). I really want the group of...

Hello, I visited my LFS yesterday and talk for an hour r two with a couple employees there. I told them about wanting rainbows or congos. One of them gave me a good idea, move the HRP pair to a 29 gallon, and make my 55 into a community. I then walked around, made a list of compatible fish, and...

IMO, If two species can interbreed and make fertile offspring, then whats to say it don't happen in the wild, yes if X species can interbreed with y species but there's many other x species around, very unlikely x species will breed with y species but there's the possibility they will. No one...

I have a 55 US Gallon, 4ft long, 12in wide, 18in high. I Know for sure my tank is gonna have: 1x HRP (Honduran Red Point)- just my male, hes mild with out his female, im removing her for this set-up. 6x Bolivian rams 8x Bronze Corydoras 2x BN I have bottom dwellers, a group that stays on the...

I've heard stories, and I think there are a couple members with full marine Figure 8's. I know its a slow process to convert the fish though

I want to know if ts a good idea to get and use wood from a wooded area. I live in south Alabama, Theres pine, oak, aspen, and few trees I don't know what they are. Any of these trees make good woods for a tank? If so, when collecting wood, what do i look for to tell if its tank safe or not? An...

ok, thank you. still gonna ponder on my possibilities.

How many max in my tank?

any ideas to add using the HRP as a center piece, and having a school or two of fish?

I have a 55 us gallon, 48l x 12w x 18t, and my grandfather wants the tank to be flashy. Meaning more activity. I could just pop in a large group (10-15) of small tetras, and some bigger fish like rainbows, giant danios, or congo tetras. I do want my tank to still atleast have my male HRP, and a...

Tank mates?

They are still young so idk how they will turn out. Also they gray one is defiantly the dominant one

I've had a HRP pair for a year now and HRP are generally placid. How big is your tank. I've kept them with 8 Serpae's in a 29 US gallon, no problems till breeding. That's why I got a 55 and everybody is doing great :)

well, ones clearing up and turning a grey with bright green sprakles

The JD's are small ATM, and pretty soon Im getting an 80 US Gallon for them.

I got her as an impulse buy *slaps hand* Soon im getting my other 29 gallon running properly and moving her in. gonna riase fry in a 10 gallon soon as I get more babies, they last batch was umm...sucked into the siphon :blush: I love the HRPs. At they lfs they had a male bred with a female...

Hey guys, don't know the last time I was on the forums here. Recently, I acquired a 55 US gallon tank. I gave her one of my 29 gallons, she needed a smaller tank and I have been after her 55 for years. Well, I took a well stocked 29, transfered into a 55 and its quite beautiful when there is no...

I see no problem with GloFish or geneticly moddified animals. If there are GloFish who are fertile and can breed and have been bred to the thousands, they stand no chance in the wild due to their color since bass, brim, and pike are attracted by the bright colors. I have to agree since they are...

It may be the blue gravel, but his white seems blue.

I would kill for those amazon Swords :drool:

I actually got one and was sold to my dad as a Clown Pleco or something. Great fish, my dad had it for about 2 years and me another 4-5. Always out and about, good temperment, tolerated my cories who would bother her often.

I can't at the moment but, you can find some great Rio Tapajos Setups, all with Red Heads. I love Red Heads now. The one I like had a small ray maybe 8 inches in it. I wish I could find it.

There are some great Rio Tapajos tanks on youtube. Saw one 1600ltr that was stunning.

Are those Archocentrus nanoluteus in your tank? I love those fish but mine died months ago from my HRP pair. Edit: Nevermind, They are cutteri instead, but I do enjoy cutteri too.

For your tank, I would adise not to unless you have a big tank, I like the look of rapheals and these are what I want with a 1000USG pond.

Even though Texans are 3x the size of Convicts, a pair protecting eggs will whoop a big bull Texans. I'd Say get one Texan with 2-3 Male Cons, but BNs are too small to deal with a texan. They would attempt to eat a BN.

Those Lemon Fins will grow 10"+ i believe. The are Closely relaated to Tin Foils so I would expect same big boisterouis barb behavior.

Mt Cories hate my little pebble pit, so they have covered it in sand. Mind that this pit is in there favorite spot.

I wish I lived in the UK or I would snatch that up

unless you could simulate a huge waterfall on one side of the tank by dispersing the flow of water EX: over emersed rocks or plants

AND YOU NEVER TOLD US?!?!?! I blame Chops for hogging attention away from an interesting cross.

its a firemouth for sure, a young juvi. Bolivians are hard to sex unless you have a group, becasue they seem to show more in a group and you can distinguish male from female easier. I have 4 in my 29USG and I have 2 males to females, females just have the dot and little coloring compared to...
