  1. I don't know what is the genetic history of my endlers. I ignore if they are pure or mixed. The only thing I know is that they breed like mad. If you want a few breeding pairs I can give them to you for free during your next trip to calgary :)

    Thanks will get in touch with you when i am coming up.

  2. Awsome that gives me some ideas, for the planted tank wondering if i should get rid of my peacocks and turn the 120 gal in to a planted tank ? bigger is better?

    were can i find some nice endlers?

    Thanks for the help i will probley have more questions as i go espically when i go to pick plants and sand.

  3. Well i have decided to start a community tank 46gal bow front and have show guppies and endlers in it ,but after reading many forms about endlers and guppies cross breeding i have decided to just have endlers colony in the 46 gal and keep the line pure.I will put the guppies in a 75 gal community tank and i have added 3- 20 gal long tanks divided in to 3 compartments each with spunge filters for breeding show guppies.

    I am looking for ideas of what to add to the guppy community tank for tank mates as i have always had cichlids and i am new to having a cumminty tank.

    Next project planted tank--

  4. Hi all i have a 30 gal rimless tank i was thinking of building a 3d back ground in ,i was planning on using a styrofoam shipping box ,cutting it cross corner and glueing pieces to it .

    My question is in all the DIY articals there is only 1 reference to the paint used in building these and it is concrete paint,Since i am not planing on using concrete in the build what type of paint shoild i use to paint my styrofoam.

    thanks Dana

  5. What i have found that works for me in my 108 gal 6 ft tank is a school of cyps [black fin] which stay close to top of tank,

    a small group of 8 tropheus moori[firecrackers] and 3 frontosa which stay at mid tank and some leleupi 3 ,black calvis 2, compressive 2 which stay at bottom of tank. they seem to get along fine and my tank is always busy.

    I am hoping to add some tri color cyps soon and some more leleupi also.

    hope this helps

  6. I was at the LFS yesterday and saw some Zebra tilapia ,Very nice looking fish and can get quite large.

    My question is does any one have any stories about them good or bad and what would be good tank mates

    in a 108 gal tank.

    Thanks Dana

  7. I joined five years ago and want to thank those that run this site as well as members who contribute.

    I was invited on by someone who saw me as Albertan on another fish site when this forum was quite new (I am #80).

    I was somewhat skeptical about a regional forum but I was soon impressed.

    I have met some very nice people through the Buy/Sell feature (even people from Edmonton!!!)

    Congrats on the 5 years i also was invited from another form ,It is great to have a local site i have meet some great people here and found some beautiful fish through these people .Congrats again,Dana
