Endler Info Please!

[-FighterFishh]

When my new tank is ready, I'd like to put in some Endlers, but do they need to go in later or would it be okay to put them in first?
I was just wondering if they'd be able to take the water when it's so new.
Thankss!

Has long has your filter has been cycled to handle the bio load then adding endlers should be fine

Endlers will do fine in a newly cycled tank but as Harlequins has asked, is your new tank cycled? If you have a cycled tank and temperature match endlers, they will do great for you. My own are moved around in my fish room by simply making sure the temperature in 2 tanks is matched and using a net to move them. Of course all of the water in my fish room is identical since it all came from the same tap.

It's in the process of cycling now, should be finished by the weekend. I've decided I'm going to put in 2 platies next weekend, then the week after that some corydoras, the week after that the endlers, then move some platies from my biOrb up, then put in a male betta.
And, I plan to put in pure endlers, so they won't be a threat to the fighter

I would actually change your stocking sequence some. The endlers, at least pure ones, will probably do better in a newly cycled tank than the cories will. Real endlers are some tough fish.

And extremely hard to find. Most endlers you find in the pet trade today are hybrids.

Okay!

I actually found a tank full of black bar endlers in the local Maidenhead Aquatics, so I can get some from there
