  1. if you want ones that arent as mean you can go with hunuran red points (they only have about 30 fry each time though, unlike the 50 convicts have) But ya they breed just as easy.
  2. haha that elastic band makes it look like a tank at petland b/c of that elastic bands (-.- people are always shooting them)
  3. I have no idea but I had this problem. I just turned my tankl around when I had to many
  4. melafix + aquarium salt usually works on a ton of fish wounds. Good luck to the guy. Btw watch out b/c sometimes pirahnas decide to eat each other when more then 2. So thats what could be happening.
  5. I lovely thing happened the yesterday (at noon). My 21 gallon geo system crack on the bottom and it was like a water fall off of the stand. About 5 gallons ended up on the floor (I got a hose out the window into my tank right away so the rest was outside. It has been a day and is still damp and smells funny. I put a fan on it but still smells. think its mold? Can it form this fast? And is there a way to get ri of it if dont wanna rip up carpet?
  6. 8 years old?? wow haha only got into the fish hobby 2.5 years ago. I killed my first betta (put a lamp to close, and fried it). then never got another one till my baby salvini (now its 4") and I have had it for 9 months i think I suck with time so could be off completely
  7. Won't the vaseline mess with the water?
  8. wat about the small cascade under water filter. I had a fluval 1 on a 2.5 (alittle much but had it lying around). I had baby fish in there and some got sucked up by it so got a sponge filter, those work good.
  9. if the fin is bitten to the flesh (alot missing) It usually takes very long or never returns.
  10. Nice one patrick and Toitis the mom was a Nosy Be and the father a (something) ambanja I think he will turn out good and his name is Vino
  11. There is only one metal part in the Rena, and that is the impeller shaft. I would assume that they would be no different than any other impeller shaft for corrosion. I have 2 xp3 filters and think they are great. Fluval's are ceramic. I think I'm just gunna test out a fluval impeller shaft in my rena
  12. and by that you mean the store? I couldn't get any at me store for a bit now so j n j s
  13. Crappy fishkeepers.... I hate those people! and ya try and get the rest before they die
  14. pinch the hose so less water flow in syphon so current isnt as strong
  15. they can't resist the urge to come back
  16. that tank will be awkward going around a 90 degree angle...have you mesured to make sure it fits? also its probably a heavy tank. Took 4 (kinda 5) people to move a 180 (1 inch thick glass)
  17. Im getting my first BN tommorow (just got some in at work) I have a peppermint and a common. My golden nugget died recently
  18. anyone comment please comment on corrosion of the metal in renas???? Wel it corrode. if so, how long?
  19. Wat type of cichlid is that in the first post????
  20. Sand sucks for cleaning but there is geosystem (I think its geosystem) gravel/sand the does not get sucked up as many crushed coral you could buy. I have sand for 2 tanks and gravel for one
  21. Its what is the best? And can anyone comment on the corrosing of rena parts? because im not even sure it happens?
  22. k. I just wasn't sure if it was safe and all. I dunno
  23. I've heard so many opposing views - Rena is better b/c easier to put together/maintain, and just over all works good. Rena sucks because if a part breaks you have to order it. (Can’t buy it in stores) Rena sucks b/c the metal pieces corrode. Fluval is better b/c the system is set up much better. Fluval is better b/c replacement peaces are easy to get. Fluval sucks b/c plastic pieces always break. Ehiem is better b/c lasts longer then other filters (they don't break) Ehiems suck b/c they always break. ANY More oppinions?
  24. super fish

    Purigen

    I'm having troubles with the purigen staying in the fluval/aqua clear bags. Will pantyhose or something else work?
