    I really like the way the Synos look, but the price on some can be insane. Should I go with the upside-downs? I don't want to overstock but I know some catfish like to be in groups so is 2-3 okay?

    I just don't know where i'd get those fish. I searched the Sunpet website and they don't have most of them. My lfs that supplies Tangs gets all their Tangs from Sunpet, so if Sunpet doesn't have them I don't know where I can get them. Do you know of any websites I can order fish from that will...

    But since you're now looking at the fish I am able to get, would it be possible to pick out which ones i'm compatable with? I really hate having a 29 gallon tank. I'm so limited right now.

    The source that I have says they grow to 5" at the very max. Here's the website i've been going off of www.sunpet.com. You can use a guest log in and view the products.

    5-6males Living Together !

    I'm not sure this is even possible at all... The only way I can think that 2 male bettas could be kept in the same tank together is if you had like a 150usg aquarium and they never see each other. If what you're saying is true, just tell your friend to expect a lot of mess to clean up if he's...

    Once again, thank you so much! So would a pair of Leleupi and a trio of Auritus be fine? (Sorry if this is way off. I can't find any real information on the Auritus) Will the Cichlids themselves take care of the algae or will I need something special for that? After doing research on algae...

    Who Will Your Betta Be Friends With?

    Bettas do NOT mix well with Blue Gouramis. I learned that one the hard way...

    Lake Tanganikyan Setup- Updated Pics

    Wow... Your tank looks great! I'm starting up a Tang aquarium myself but my aquascaping skills are so very lacking it's not even funny. But, I have plenty of time to learn. That's the great thing about being young. As long as you folks keep posting picture, i'll keep learning. In other words...

    Silver Mollies, Cute, But Normal?

    I know Gouramis and Bettas suck at the surface because of their Labyrinth organ. It allows them to inhale atmospheric gasses and use them to breathe. Never heard of Mollies with a Labyrinth organ though. Strange...

    Alright. Thank you so much for all that you folks have done for me. Especially the post above. It looks like your spent a lot of time and effort on it. I'll do my best research on the fish in my aquarium range and then try and see what I can get from my lfs. I heard I can pick up custom orders...

    Alright so i'm starting to look at Tanganyikans and saw this one called a Cyphotilapia Frontosa. It looks pretty cool but from the website i'm looking at it says they grow to be like 30cm. The rest of the other Tangs grow to be about 15cm. Are these not too big for my aquarium?

    Thank you again for being so helpful. :good: Only problem I see with those other fish is that i've never seen any of those in the 4-5 lfs around my house. Will barbs and cory cats work well? I've heard about problems with pleco's eating Krib eggs. Does that mean I would need to get Oto's?

    After doing some research on Dwarf Cichlids I started looking at Kribensis. I think there might be a few of those at my lfs. Would those work for my size aquarium? and do they manage pretty much the same as non-dwarf cichlids?

    Guess it's a good thing I consulted this forum first. To tell you the truth my local pet store doesn't have the Africans seperated. They're all just in 1 tank labeled "Assorted African Cichlids" so I have no idea which specific ones i'm looking at. I also have another bulb for my aquarium so i'm...

    New To The World Of Cichlids

    I've been running a community tank for about 2 years and decided it would be interesting to take my hobby up a notch. Then I noticed these pretty little African Cichlids in the local pet store and thought I would do some research on them. I've set my mind on getting this tank set up but i'm just...
