  1. I have Skunk loaches in with angels cory cats neons etc.. And I believe as long as you have 5 or 6 they will spend all there time eating snails and chasing each other.. When I bought them I was looking for the Dwarf (zebra) but I purchased the skunks.. All I had a couple days later was empty shells littering the bottom
  2. The one fellow at paradise pets is really good at gettin parts for your hagen style equipment compared to other outlets in the city,, so if you need parts a great place to go.....other parts too I Would assume.. Lots of parts on hand also..... Do to possible disciplinary action I will say no more!!! Really good at gettin parts though A+
  3. What kind of tetra grows to be around 3 inches and is not a fin nipper?
  4. I know it looks like that from the angle of the pic's. I removed some caves/rocks from the tank for cleaning and my main feeding bay is where they come when there is a change in the tank. It is a 600gal tank (8X6X2) also once pairs started to form I would drive to W.E.M. and do some trading or donating to them(the extras)........ underneath the mall , very impressive under there. This club should set up a tour (for free) with the mall..... I did it on my own..... contiuisly hasseling the person in charge of the underwater world until I finally was accepted........ Any way I had to always have at least 6 of each species to get breeding pairs.... I would not do africans again, yet they did serve as dithers... just my preference.... Sometimes they would keep my fish.... like my 10inch bifaciatum... which I seen 3 months later and regreted trading him in ( they have small tanks set up down there to) and on the other hand when I brought my extra red devils to them ..... Well I had to watch them been thrown into the shark tank....RIP....The filtration system was amazing.... You say that tank was overcrowded and I do agree but I never lost one fish!!!!!!!! Anyway who do we talk to .......to call W.E.M. and set up a tour of the under mall tanks???? It's amazing...buddy told me to jump out on a large rock... I did .... next a red tail cat (must of been 5 ft) jumped onto the rock ...its head landing at my feet... begging for food ..................AMAZING........... had to go to the washroom after that............. Nandosis what do you think??????? For all members!!!!!................................... :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: Are you just talking about an area where someone takes care of the aquariums for the mall?
  5. I heard on a radio ad they are re opening there fishroom on the 24th. they are advertising a state of the Art fish room? Anyone a regular customer or deal with them an have any insider info? there gonna be any good deals ? or specialty fish there? anything ???

  7. I dont know how accurate this is but.... I think some of my fish have callamanus from frozen food... I found a few articles saying over feeding especially the frozen food can lead to this problem in your fish... So when I feed the frozen food I am very careful to make sure it is eaten or removed promptly... just a thought in regards to your outbreak in your betta's
  8. I don't know how you can only have several ramshorn snails... they seem to be multiplying in my tank like crazy,,,, there was even 2 that were connected at the head floating around my tank!!! why they were hooked up like that I dont know The connected at the head would be them breeding....... And I only have 8 right now (I was actually updating my signature while you were typing your post.) I've given away approximately 50 baby snails since I got the original 5 back in about April? I also diligently remove the egg sacks as soon as I see them. It was kinda neat when I first got them to see the eggs hatch and the baby snails grow, but now that I understand just how hardy these guys are, and just how many eggs they can lay, that novelty has worn off. And the Ramshorns in the brackish tank? They only lay eggs after a freshwater change. (I alternate brackish and fresh, keeping the sailnity between 1.002 and 1.004.) Well it is good to know they are breeding.... when i pulled them apart I thought they were dead and I thru em in my tank with angels and my loaches but they are moving I see... these ramshorns are the generic snails you get with plants right?

  10. I have a tank same as hers someone has rubbed 3 or 4 inches away cleaning it I assume(used tank) What is the purpose of the inner silicone then? Should I bother to reseal the 4 inch piece?
  11. If you have a heavily planted smaller tank like this should you avoid adding aeration to the tank? or only at night or during te day?
