I really hate to see people defending this way of genetic altering :( . They may have not found proof of any harm to the fish, but I'm sure it does, either mentally or physically or both. Poor fish will think it is daytime, when there is no light.

I wouldn't suggest buying these fish ever. By buying them, you are just contributing to the cause. Nature is best left alone. I know that dyed fish lose their color and have a shorter life span due to stress and mishandling, some even end up blind(makes me sick to think about it). At any rate...

I would add 1 serpae tetra and 2 more head and tail light tetra, then I would get rid of the pleco and catfish and add 2 cories of your choice :)

I totally agree with the above. I started out with ugf's and it didn't take long for me to realize that they are no good. They don't even compare to hob or canister filters. Everytime I would clean the gravel in my tanks, I would put the end of my siphon hose over the outlet on the ugf's and get...

I would get 2 more pepper cories and 3 bronze cories, you have plenty of room.

When I transfered my fish from my 2.5g to my 5g, I used all the water from the 2.5g and filled up the rest of the way with new water, used all the old gravel and added a little new, used old filter and cartridge. Worked out perfect, no problems at all.

I have 4 tiger barbs as you can see in my sig. They pretty much keep to themselves. Get along great with the other fish. I thought that there might be a problem with them and the cherry barb because he is just a little guy(3/4in) but they pay no attention to him. I never see them nipping at each...

It worked perfect, thank you very much :D

Thanks platypus! btw, how do you get the different colors in your sig. if you don't mind me asking :)

I would say an albino cory because I have 2 of them and they are kind of peach colored, and the barbels (whiskers) could have gotten rubbed off on sharp substrate or nipped at by other fish. But by the size, it kind of throws me off. I have a green cory that is about 2.5in. long, but have never...

AWESOME FISH! Your tank was to small for him? To bad you had to get rid of him, very cool fish.

Very nice tank, good job! :nod:
