Well in my house besides fish we have 3 children.... a 3yr old a 2yr old and a 1 yr old hehe

I posted your pic on a forum that I have been going to for a long while and the gentlemen said this... Pseudotropheus demasoni. Its a rift lake species from lake malawi. They are rock dwellers aka mbuna. So there that is what your fish is... The yellow one might be a yellow lab aka electric...

The Blue Fishy looks like it is part of the Cichlid family.... let me see if I can pin point it for ya... I will ask a friend of mine that is very knowledageble in cichlids. Could I use your picture to help me find out what it is? ;)

Hehehe that is a cute story! Thanks for sharing!

I was thinking if I could get a 75 Gallon for the same price I plan on spending for a 55 Gallon, with moving everything from my 40 Gallon to the 75 Gallon and only buying a bigger filter. Would this work in my 75 Gallon....I know the plants and the driftwood will, but this is what I have in...

I have 3 Gouramis (used to have 4 :-( ) 2 Blue, 2 Gold... now I have 2 Gold, 1 Blue. Alot of people will tell you that they do not get along to well, they don't but mine do now they were all small when I purchased them. I made PLENTY of hiding places and they have gotten along well since then.

Hi, I have 4 Tiger Barbs and I also keep 3 Gouramis with them.

I have 9 now, did have 10 :-( 3 Gouramis (lost a blue gourami) 4 Tiger Barbs 1 Rubbernose Pleco 1 Golden Chinese Algae Eater Come on People whatcha got!!

Well I changed that much cause I took a mini vacation and I did not change the water for almost 3 weeks!! :crazy: I do dechlorinate my water before it hits the tank. The ammonia is down, I think I did not rinse out the test tubes good enough before I did another test. :look:

It's never been this high except when I first got the tank and did not know about fishless cycling. There is not a sign of ammonia in my tap water. I did a 75% water change and removed the plants and driftwood so I could clean the gravel. I do 25% water changes every other week. A 75% the...

Okay I just did the parms in my tank, cause 'Goldie' my male gold gourami was swimming at the surface. Looked like he was dying for air! (He's still alive BTW) so this is what I came up with. Ammonia : .5-1.0 pH - 7.6 (same as always) NitrIte - 0 ppm (same as always) Now I did a water...

LFS's have told me that they are Violent Gobies. and that they are AGGRESSIVE! Hope you have a good time. Thou someday I see my oldest son or middle son getting something that freaky. As long as I do not have to keep frogs in my house they are welcome to get almost anything, except things with...

Thanks I will look into all of those fish! Thanks again!

CRAZY!!! These fish are scary! Good luck to ya, do not mean to scare ya away thou I would never keep these things!! EEK! Or is it this and I just looked up the wrong thing?

Okay so get a few more tiger barbs, I had that in mind already sorry I did not post it. Hatchet Fish eh, hmmm never heard of those before. Thanks!

Do not mean to hijack the thread, but I have family that lives in Fairview Pk. I haven't been up that way since I was 17, but I do miss it a lot!

Wow Aquanut, what a lunch, or dinner. My fish have a varied diet.... Monday: Lettuce hangs on the side of the tank then on the floor of the tank at night. Tuesday: Fish Flakes Wednesday: Brine Shrimp, Algae Wafers (sometimes, mostly always, skip this one) Thursday: Lettuce again Friday...

Welcome! :D Hope you enjoy your stay!

Yes I did check it out and I haven't had that much time to scan it closely, I will tomorrow I have to clean my house tonight and then get my oldest ready for school tomorrow. Thanks again!

ok thanks!

My husband has made a clear point that I could not have a stable SW tank just yet as we are soon to be moving into a Double Wide Mobile home (please no jokes) It is his mother's and we are able to live there rent free so we can save up to get us our own place, but first we are going to get a...

Thanks! that is what I thought too, thou I do not understand the treats 51 Gallon's part. Meaning if I was to start a 55 Gallon SW tank I would have to put the whole bag/bucket in the tank and then before I do a water change I would have to go out and get ANOTHER bag/bucket.

First I take it this is a live plant? what kind of substrate do you have it planted in? For a planted tank I would recommend a substrate like Seachem's Flourite. You can mix it with your existing gravel or you could use it alone as a substrate. I, myself, do not have live plants as I do not have...

General Freshwater right now. I am learning a lot about Saltwater here thou. Thanks!

Thanks!

Which Salt should I get for my SW tank? When it says treats 51 Gallons? that is not that much is it?

Would this Filter/Skimmer be okay for a 55 Gallon SW tank? http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod...935967&siteid=6

True it could possibly be Fry... is there a pair of something in the tank?

The Red tailed shark get to about 6-7" and it would be to big for a 15 Gallon. However the 15 gallon would make a perfect house for a duel tank for Bettas. Go to your LFS and get a tank divider, plenty of plants to hid the divider from each other and viola, you have a duel tank that is ideal for...

so that is 2 pm CST which makes it 1 pm EST. Correct?

There are African Claw frogs which grow to about 5 inches. There are Dwarf African Frogs that grow to 1.5 inches. Those are the only 2 that I know of that friends of mine have in their tanks.

Well not quite a newbie to fishkeeping or forums. Thou I am new to this forum. I have been keeping fish for a little over 4 years and have been loving it so much. I started out with a goldfish and a bowl without a filter, never changed the water, etc. Everything thing you cringe about in...

Hi, sorry I am tuning in a little late, thou this page might help you out Here I found it useful when I was considering building my own tank. HTH

Hi, Yes you should boil the piece of wood 2-3 times to kill the bateria, then put it in a 5 gallon bucket filled with water and let it sit there till it sinks to the bottom. Everyday it is in the bucket test the water and make a log. After it sinks test the water again ... make sure that there...
