  1. The festae wont need to breed to kill the other fish, theyre just plain agressive, as for the 90g the midas will prolly go nuts and kill everything, expect maybe a male, so consider that :smokey:
  2. Most plecos are nocturnal so you wont see them out and about much, and yea the biggest bristlenose ive ever seen was 4" :smokey:
  3. Goooooooo Random Raffle of Members cuz i suck at all the other options :bang1:
  4. It could grow back if its damaged, worse thing that will happen is that it will be oddly shaped, but thats about all. Now clamped fins USUALLY means disease, so what might look torn may actually be somthing like fin and tail rot, when fish get this they will often still eat (unless it progresses to an extreme degree) and will have clamped fins, ill give you the best pic i cant find of fin and tail rot and you can judge for yourself and if it its disease it will grow back, after medication. Ok this is far gone, as you can see because the fins are totally gone and the fish are dead, but look at the lil bits of fins that are left, they look cloudy with blood in them, thats what youll need to look for in th early stages, oh btw this is caused by bad water conditions.
  5. Rams, Corys, Danios and Maybe a angel fish
  6. He looks nice, mines a coward to, try adding some more fish to the tank, somthing that swims alot buts waaay to big to eat, that helps mine come out more
  7. I need to find some one crooked to send me channa!
  8. They reach around 8" so id say maybe a 35g would be good, youll need the height due to them being almost round heres some info you might want LINK
  9. Some one buy 4 and mail them to me, id do it myself but i dont have enough for a min order plus shipping, i swear i wont rat you out :ph43r:
  10. I feed mine algea pellets every day 2 or 3 for plecos that are 2-5" and 4 or 5 for plecos 5-10" (thats the biggest i have)
  11. Blood worms, other frozen foods, sinking shrimp pellets, and theyll clean up left over flakes too
  12. The cray fish would kill the polypterus for sure why not try some catfish like striped pims those work well and theyre to big to eat or larger loaches (i mean over 4" when you buy them) or geophagus, they sift the gravel/sand and clean up pretty well
  13. Why does the top one have a giant red...........ya know what, i dont wanna know :shock:
  14. Sorry this took so long Hemi its a male at about 13" The fahaka is in a 65g right now, but ill move him into a differently shaped one in time (48x18x18) And its a Parachanna insignis
  15. If you have more the one syno theyre fighting, as could be the case with the pleco and syno, theyll chase each other all around then one darts to the top and flys across the upper half of the tank splashing all the way
  16. Hemi ill give you the 4" synspilum and a 5" black belt for that demp :drool:
  17. 3? theyre tiny lol get 10 muahaahahhha
  18. I agree its pretty but a show guppys its not, its suppose to be a leopard or snake skin, maybe a cross of the two, its fins are small and not very flowing, it looks like it was crossed with a ferral aka feeder guppy, ive seen these in batches of feeder guppys at my lfs, its tail looks like a low grade spade or flag tail, still mixed with to much ferral guppy bood and yes that red spot is a flaw, but i still think its pretty Leopard Snake Skin Guppy Tails
  19. Are you sure thats a fryeri? they usually have orange on the fins, not yellow i have seen yellow on Sciaenochromis ahli tho
  20. Carinotetraodon travancoricus is what youd want to look for
  21. Id leave them in there, free meal for whatever gets them first
  22. Wow congrats, and its nice to know fish are easy to trick :rofl:
  23. Its not the fishs fault tho, its the stress, especially if the store just got them in from a shipment, thats one REALLY stressful experience, then getting bagged moved and dumped in a new tank is also stressful, so you really need to be carful with this, ive bough fish and brough them on a three hour drive with me and they never got sick, but ive bought fish from a store 5 min away and got ich, its all conditions, filtration and stress, i have several pred fish that wont eat anything but feeders and theyve never had ick, meanwhile fish that only ate pellets and had been established in a tank unchanged for months got ick, so you just need to be careful and having a bottle of stress coat helps alot too
  24. Ya if theyre fresh dead it wouldnt make a difference, itd be like feeding them frozen fish
