    Black Sand

    Sand is sand it'll be fine for digging. As long as the end of the filter is at least 4 inches above the sand you'll be fine. It wouldn't hurt to get sand that would buffer the pH either. I've got Caribsea Aragonite sugar sized sand and love the color. Some will get in the filters but it's so...

    Stocking Suggestions For 40G Tank

    Electric Yellow's would be perfect. One of very few mbuna you can have multiple males in same tank and they will still get along. Also Dwarf cichlids such as a demasoni would be great but only do one demasoni as they are aggressive towards their own kind but peaceful with others.

    Sa In 20 Gallon?

    I haven't done anything yet but I'm just curious if there are any S.A. cichlids that can live in a 20 gallon aquarium? I was thinking something along the likes of Convicts maybe. I mostly into Africans but I've got a 20 gallon and not sure what to do with it. So are there any S.A. that could go...

    Aragonite Sugar Sized Sand?

    I guess float was a bad term. It's not actually floating on the surface or anything. When it get swooshed around and what not it simply elevates and takes a while to sink back down.

    Aragonite Sugar Sized Sand?

    They're african cichlids so they're digging it around. My only complain is that the sand is too fine and when aggrivated it floats up towards the surface. It's not messing up the filters though because it's so fine. It just makes the tank not looks as clear.

    Aragonite Sugar Sized Sand?

    Does anybody have CaribSea Aragonite Sugar Sized Sand in any of their tanks? I put this into my 75 gallon cichlid tank. My question is this sand is so fine and all does it float all around your tank or does it eventually calm down and stay on the bottom. I've had it up and running for about a...

    Adding Water To Tank

    I was wondering instead of adding dechlorinater to a bucket of water if it is safe to let the water sit for 24 hours or so and the chlorine would evaporate. Does anybody do this method or has anybody heard of this?

    What about Ice Blue Zebra's how do you think those would fair. Those cynotilapia afra look pretty stunning that's awesome their pretty chill. Are the males aggressive towards each other or should I do 2 females per male with those?

    Fish Compatibility

    I know African Cichlids are aggressive but I'm wondering what are some that aren't as aggressive. I know the Acei and Electric Yellows a relatively peaceful as far as cichlids go. I was wondering what other fish would go great with these two. The tank is 75gallons and has a decent amount of...
