I was afraid of that...   Ok, then, Galaxies only tank!   Thanks

I am rearranging my Aquanano 40 completely. At the moment, it only has 10 Galaxy Rasboras in it. If I plant it heavily, would a dwarf puffer be less aggressive towards the Galaxies?

My tank is an Aquanano 40 and is heavily planted     The fauna is Two Honey Gouramis (M/F) 8-9 Galaxy Rasboras 6 Chilli Rasboras 3 Rummynose Tetras (which will soon be back to the LFS, but if anyone wants them for free, I am located at Bournemouth so be my guest, come and get them!) 30...

Yes, the water parameters are great and it's more than 6 or 7 females pregnant, so I presume some other females might be in breeding condition.   The tank is like a jungle, it's really heavily planted. I actually had to cut some of the plants as they were creating so much shade that the tank...

Hello to all!   I have an AquaNano 40 tank and lots of red cherry shrimps. Yesterday I noticed a very strange behaviour: many red cherries gathered at the out-take of the tank (this is where the water gets sucked into the filtration system. Here are some photos to show what I mean:         It...

To be honest, I don't really like any other rasbora. I'll try without the spraybar, to see how things are going. Will keep you (and this thread) posted...   If it is ok, could you please tell me where you bought your CPDs from? Was it online or at a LFS?

I was hoping you'd pop up in this thread! I've seen your gouramis and they are just beautiful! To be honest, you are the source of my inspiration/idea of a gourami...   The betta is now in the recently cycled 20L tank, along with 7 tylomelania sp. (who, had I not removed from the big tank...

Oh, that's so sad... Can't you find someone with a few floaters from the forum here?

Water sprite it is then! The few water sprite plants I already have (back right) seem to attract the amanos like bees with honey. They practically stick to it and won't leave even if I try to "push" them away with my finger! Along with some amazon frogbit, it would do the trick, won't it?   My...

Yes, that tube (is a spray bar) has been in my plans to cover but I don't know what with! A crypt or an anubia? Suggestions?   Also, how would a single male honey gourami be with the CPDs? Any incompatibility there? Maybe I should get a female honey?

That means "add more", I assume?

What would a "good size" school be? 10? 15? Maybe I could get the honeys out of the equation. I only wanted to add them because I thought the CPDs would be too shy and the tank will look empty if they are hiding constantly.   By the way, this is how the tank looks like after removal of the Betta...

Do you think CPD's will be too shy even without the honeys in there? I could get the CPD's out of the equation and maybe add more honeys?

So now that I moved the betta from the AquaNano 40 to a smaller (but much denser) planted tank, I'm left with 5 Amanos, 5 red cherries and 52.50 lts of water (minus the plants and wood). So I thought I'd buy some honey gouramis.   Initially my thought was for a couple but then I read that some...

Thank you, that's what I'll do!
