    The Best Fish Ever

    For me hands down dwarf cichlids - every single one of them - I just love their character.. Second would be Puffers or Coydoras - puffers for character and the way they bond with you and Cory's cause they are just really fun to watch ;)

    Need Quick Help With Bolivian Rams

    Unfortunately it doesn't work that way with Bolivians ... they are notoriously hard to sex and seeing males can also be quite 'mild' to each other there is no real way of finding out... the best way to keep Bolivians is if room permits it is to purchase 5 ... see if 2 pair up... if so you can...

    Ahhh Whats In My Tank

    Sounds like a Planaria to me... They come in all colours but usually grey/brown....if there is only one I would not worry about it...just remove the little guy... Planaria are generally harmless except to eggs and possibly newly hatched fry Good news is Betta's like to eat them ;) ;)

    Colorful Fish

    I'm not even going to discuss this anymore seeing everything I seem to say is a lie or laughable...after keeping aquariums for many years and never having an overcrowded tank and perfect water parameters and actually seeing the Dwarfs attack and kill the said mentioned fish... To read up on...

    Colorful Fish

    Nice idea but not really suitable as they have different water parameter needs than Endlers....the checkerboard needs quite a low PH (ideally really low 4.5 - 5.5) whereas the Endlers thrive on a higher PH of 7.5....mmmmhhh thinking caps back on...

    Colorful Fish

    We are talking about a 10 gallon aquarium so that is what I am referring to...They are far too large for a 10 gallon is what I am saying...you have to consider their territory and give the females a chance to get a break from the males... As for aggression..yes they can get pretty aggressive it...

    What Else To Add....

    Thanks for the fast reply's...gives me something to do ;) ;) Like search them up on Google ... I think the Colisa Fasciata's are a bit big...maybe the Colisa Lalia or Chuna but I think they are not compatible with cichlides... (another excuse to get another tank hehehe) I have heard that...

    What Else To Add....

    Ok so my 130 Liter tank is looking kind of empty...the Neon's like the right corner...the Corydoras are always on the ground hiding around the plants...the Apistos have take the left corner of the tank and I am staring at a empty center... Current inhabitents: 15 x Neon Tetra's 6 x Corydoras...

    Colorful Fish

    Dwarf cichlids are all quite aggressive except for the Rams and grow quite large....they should also be kept as a couple if it is a Ram or in a Harem for the agassizi. I really would not recommend only keeping 1 of these as alone they are quite miserable. Also not sure if your Endlers would...

    Fishalicious's Tanks & Some Fish

    Thank you so much :blush: I like the busy look as well...although it does look more tranquil in real life...there are tons of hiding places and lot's of plants for swimming through. I guess I always try and make a tank the fish would like the most - hiding places, open areas and lot's of...

    Setting Up A Hospital/nursery Tank

    Buy the tank and keep it empty until needed...indeed put the filter of the hospital tank in the main tank and keep it running that way you get the bacteria culture you need (cycled) when you do have to use the hospital tank... If you do need the hospital tank then also scoop up some of your...

    Best "hand Feeding" Fish?

    My Betta's and Apisto Cacatouides eat from my hand and even nibble at my fingers when I am arranging plants in the tank...it is a nightmare when changing the water as they are so tame they always swim up to the tube giving me a heart attack half the time <sighs> My Neons are also pretty tame...

    Need Help About If The Fish Is Pregnant Or Not ?

    Looks pregnant to me...but they can stay huge for a long time before actually having the babies...as millym said they go a really boxy square shape just before having them and you can sometimes see a dark gravity spot at the back... It depends on the age and how many young they have had...

    Food

    Is it frozen food or dry food? If it is frozen make sure you really really wash it out well to eliminate the salt .. if it is dry it shouldn't be too much of a problem but as Fishlette said only this once as they may not be getting all the vitamins and nutrients needed as these differ in...

    Rolling Some Ideas Around In My Head...

    Bumblebee Goby's are fantastic and really really fun to watch...if you are going down the Brakish route Or you could keep a harem of 'different' fish such as Dwarf Croaking Gourami (get ready for some noise) or the beautiful Dario dario (Badis bengalensis) with 1 male and 2 females and create a...
