I am going to get a pair of Apistogramma Cacatuoides for my 30 gallon tank. My question is, could I get a pair of German Rams for this tank too, or will the two pairs fight all the time in a tank this size?

Ok I don't have water test for this, but I am guessing this is what the problem is going to be. I have been out of town for 3 weeks for work, and I get a call from my roomate who is taking care of my fish saying that my German Red Peacock was dead. He said that he has a white film over his...

I am looking at getting 1 male and 3 females (Tripple Red variaty), and I was wondering what else would go good with these fish. I have a 29 gallon tank. I was thinking maybe Neon Tetras Angels What would be a good algie eater for this tank, and one that wouldn't eat the eggs of the...

I am going to take them back to 2 even if I don't get the pairs.

I am turning my 30 gallon tank into a heavilly planted tank. I am looking for a few fish to put into my tank that have a lot of personality and stay small. I am really leaning towards a group of dwarf freshwater puffers. I am thinking of 2 males with 2-3 females per male. Also I would put some...

Ya I forgot to put my light on there. I have a 48" flourecent fixture I have 2-65 watt flourecent bulbs, and 2 65 watt actinic bulbs. I think this should be a good lighting source for corals. Ya I think I might stay away from anemone's they aren't cheap

Would 1 arrowhead puffer do good in a 35 gallon hex tank

I am planning on selling off some of my fish to thin out the population in my 55 gallon. The dominate males are showing color and the fish are getting to big for my tank to have them all. My question is how much should I sell my fish for? All are plump, in great health, showing great color, and...

Can these two fish co exist together in a 35 gallon hex. Without the Rams killing the guppies

I have a 55 gallon tank stocked as stated in my signature. I have had them in the tank for about 6 months now. The peacocks and ahlis are starting to show color now. Most of the fish are about 2" now. Some are smaller and some are just a bit bigger but no bigger than 2.5". I am planning on...

I have a male German Ram that is looking sick. He just sits on top of the filter intake sponge, and looks like he is breathing pretty hard. He has a somewhat bloated belly. His scale look good, so I don;t think it is droppsy. He doesn't eat, and my water conditions are perfect. ammonia= 0 ppm...

What are the quietest air pumps out there. I have one for my 55 gallson that is running an undergravel filter. But this thing is loud. I am willing to spend some money on a good one, so just give me all your ideas.

Could I get a pair of angels in a 35 gallon hex tank? I would like to get about 4 or six of them and let them pair off. Would this tank support them? I did have a pair of Apistos in this tank but the female is being a ***** and killing the male, and started out with the tetra's. So I am done...

ya I know that it is an apistogramma cacatuoides. He is with another female, the store could only get the in as a pair (female and male), so I am stuck with just these two. I am planning on breeding these fish that is why they are in a tank by them selfs. There is 10 glowlight tetras in with...

These are pictures of my new Orange flash apistogramma. The pictures aren't very good, but the best I could do with my camera. I couldn't get a good picture of the female so here are some of the male. THE TANK THE FISH

The LFS has had two of these for sale for about 2 months now. I am thinking of trading in my humpback puffer in for these. I want a puffer that swims around more and is just more active. Will this fish be more active. Seams like they are b/c every time I go in the LFS they are swimming around or...

I finally got a pair of these fish for my 35 gallon hex. They have been in the tank for 5 days now. The male look awsome and the female just looks so cute. I noticed this morning that the male was already hitting the female in the side with his tail, but she wanted nothing to do with him so she...

I am not going to add a ph buffer to my water, it messed with the water cemistry to much. I will probably just add some RO water. The nitrite is 0 and nitrate is 5

I am getting a pair of these fish later the week, and I am plaining on breeding these fish as the area I am in doesn't offer them at the LFS. Question is do I need to remove the male when the fry hatch? I have heard people have removed them and some leave him in the tank. Here is my setup for...

What about mystery snails?

I have a 35 gallon Hex tank that I am setting up for breeding Blue Ram's. My question is what catfish would work good for cleaning up left over food? I want one that will not eat the eggs from the rams, and one that will fit in this tank. I was thinking maybe a Otto cat. Any help is...

Man clean that tank. Looks like that tank has been a little neglected.

I have a 35 gallon hex tank that I want to add one more tank mate. Right now I have 15 neon tetras and a pair of Blue Rams. I want to start breading the rams, so I want a tank mate that will stay at the top of the tank and leave the rams alone/not eat the eggs and fry. I am up for any...

This is my new 55 gallon tank set up. I don't have pictures of the fish that are in it. As the fish are 1/2" - 1", so they are to small to really get a good picture of. These are just pictures of my tank setup. Let me know what you think of the tank.

My king kong puffer has developed a white film accross his nose. It starts between his eye's and runs all the way to the end of his nose. He hasn't moved that much and he is really not wanting to eat. The film is white and it looks like in some places it is comming off. He just looks sick...
