I Finally Got Fish!

[GobyMaster]

I finally got some fish into my new 30 gallon aquarium!!!

It's currently stocked with the following:
1xClown Plecostomus
1xArmored Bichir
1xMarbled Sand Goby

I'll be adding some banjo cats and a small eel next week.

I'll get pictures posted as soon as I find my camera, my mom hid it after I forgot in the middle of the floor and forgot where she hid it!

i hope ur planning to upgrade otherwise correct me if im wrong but that will be overstocked

 

[roseK]

well hurry and find it, i like fishy pictures

What's the eel you got?
Sorry, I dont want to put your spirit down but as Lhutch poited out your tank seems to get overstocked.
Also for an armored bichir a 30gal isn't enough. They need at least a 55gal - http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=34710

Well the armored bichir you will need a 55g, the marbled sand goby (according to your fish profile) will need a 125-150g tank...Dont add anything else!
If I were you, I would take back the bichir, and goby. Add 2 banjos and a small eel (zig zag, yellow tailed, peacock or zebra) and have your clown plec aswell (thats not too big is it?)

I had a great reply to this disaster you call stocking I suggest next time you research your choices better because you are way way overstcked
unless you're upgrading in the future-Anne



because you want it doesn't mean you can have it

 

[Straydum]

well there's still hope and salvation, you could either return the fish to the shop and get smaller, more suitable ones, or get a bigger tank. the former sounds more practical.

[beblondie]

Yes if you have access to cycled filter media you can basicly instant cycle a tank.-Anne

you need to take some fish back or get a very big tank. like a 120g or something to house all your fish you are plannig on getting.

I live in Lincoln, Nebraska. Why??

Oh, and aparently the lfs guy sold me a senegal bichir, but he said it was an armored bichir. And yes, I do have bigger tank that I will put them in. I was just put the 30 until it gets big enough to put in my bigger tank. Oh, and about the fish in a 2 day old tank, that quarrel was already covered here.

I'll get pictures on as soon as I can.

Clown Pleco stays small. I think under 4 inches.
