ditherfish Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 Back in the hobby after over 10 years with only pond fish. With the sad demise of my last goldfish, and a move, I'm back to tropicals. Can't believe how much has changed! Great to have forums such as this one. Biggest change since I last did this: fishless cycling! Great idea. After only a 10 day cycle - plus a few dyas for paranoia, I just added fish to my little 20 gallon hex- all at once, and ammonia and nitrite have stayed at zero (!!!) Next biggest change: the amazing variety of fish available to the hobby, and excellent information. No longer at the mercy of my lfs! So, while I continue to research and save up for my African cichlid 90+ tank- I am the proud owner of a newly set up S.A. community in the old renovated and re-siliconed 20g hex - bad idea the glass is soooo old. purely sentimental reasons. It's just not a great shape for much. and hard to aquascape!!: 4 angels (growing out a pair) 6 panda corys 1 clown pleco I really would like a pair of kribs (my former dabble) or rams- but I know that there is not really room, and the corys would harass them if they bred. Tank #2- probably in the spring: minimum 90 gallon. Would like about 125 gal. No more than 175g. I'll post in WANTED. Would love anyt help from local fishkeepers when I set up the mbuna tank. Don?
