u can have normal corys in a 10 g tank, i have a 5 g with 5 neon tetras and an elegant cory, at my lfs he sez i can get 5 corys with all my other fish and don NOT tell me he is unknowledgeable because he takes care of many saltwater fish that r just brilliant in color and never have disease...

nice discus, dude. Did you breed those?

I tried flakes, but they refused. Good news, though. I went upstairs to my bedroom to see if they would eat if I gave them some more food, and one of them was picking at a pellet on the bottom. thx fr th help J :good:

do you live in wisconsin?

I have been using new life spectrum community pellets that are 1mm, and my tetras won't eat a thing. I have tried flake foods, and they refused that too. The one thing they will eat is frozen daphnia. (but they dont eat too much, only like 10 bugs a piece, so I do not feed them that very often.)...

I guess that's a prob. :angry: , but I could still could make some money if they breed often enough, I will probably make more money off fry because the pet stores are not "overflowing" with cichlids. So I can probably make a good $95 and make a deal with my mom (she'll probably say that if I am...

was he selling newborn fry, or 3 month old fry?

watcha mean break even??? powder blues are around $10 at the pet store, and they will probably take them for 3-4$ if I sell 60 of them from various spawns, I would make $180-$240 and a 55 gallon kit with a tank, filter, food, water conditioner, lid with built in light all in one is around $175...

Sorry, but I dont think that any of those fish are pretty, and danios are not for me. :good:

Also, What does IMO mean? cuz I have a 30 inch long tank. :hyper:

Ok, I guess cichlids are not for me until I have a bigger tank so probably another 4-5 years for me :-( P.S. I guess i better change that top post J

O.K., my tank is a lot smaller than it looked! It's 17 Gallons. could I put a powder blue in there?

I'm gonna go check how big my tank is. :drool:

I have Heard of someone who put one in a 11 gallon tank :shifty: , but if this is COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE, then can anyone reccomend a begginer malawi tank setup fish that is blue and small? P.S. Musho, You ROCK!! Thanx J

I am accepting advice, the thing is, though, I have heard otherwise for different types of fish. I was just wondering if it is different for pseudotropheus socolofi. :good:

I think I might put 2 youngsters 1 male, 1 female, and breed them and sell the fry to petstores for money so i can get a 55gal. tank, I also have a gigantic tank in my basement maybe 35gal. gotta go J

I am DYING to get a powder blue cichlid (Pseudotropheus Socolofi) :D (But I can't) My mom says that I can get one :yahoo: (But I can't) The only thing is..... I am young and I cannot afford anything larger than a 5gal. tank. Can I put 2 of them in my tank? (Beep Beep) Could I put 1? (Beep...

you should return your female guppies, if they are healthy, they can have a batch of up to 100 fry at a time and pet stores won't take fry....... you might as well just let the parents eat the babies and the rest that they cant eat.. ya gotta kill with your hand sorry

congradulations! you should be very :hyper:

keep your tank just the same because if you don't have the female in a breeding trap she will be having a friday night fish fry! :rofl:

You should Not put a guppy alone because it might be like this: :rip: the next day because it is too lonely. Guppies are schooling fish and are more comfortable in groups of 4 or more. P.S. (Don't even think about putting 4 guppies in a 2.5 gallon tank) Sorry if I am being the :big_boss: to...
