okay :)

thanks very informative, ive heard of people putting oak leaves in with their filter to colour the tank, is this recommendable as i would of thought it would make the filter slightly unreliable ?

so I have decided on starting a black water pool aquarium in my 125 litre tank and I am going to be stocking it with gouramis, rasboras and loaches. what would be the best type of gouramis and rasboras and it what numbers should I keep them in. Also what plants and substrate should I use and how...

sorry for the double post but how many rasboras could fit into a tank of this size?

cool, thank you, I knew I wouldnt be able to fit that many species I was just asking for possible combinations, what plants would work in this sort of tank ?

would like to now if my 25 gallon fluval 125 is suitable for a south east asian black river pool biotope aquarium, and if so what fish and plants would be a suitable size to put in there, i was thinking maybe these types of fish (although obviously i wouldnt be able to fit them all in my tank)...

Okay thanks for all the help and advice it is much appreciated, i now have a bit of a better understanding of my fish now and sorry if I was a bit of a hassle

Okey dokey :). Would another pair of key holes fit into my tank as I am unsure as to whether the pair of already have are the same sex as they are way too small to be able to tell what sex they are at this point, and I want a breedable pair

I've just that hoplo for a couple of years now and it hasn't grown too large, do you reckon this is due to stunted growth. The hoplo has also recently started to get covered by Wartish spots and it definetly isn't ich any suggestions as to what this could be?

Okay thanks for the advice I don't think I will get any more cichlids for now im just going to focus on maintaining my aquarium, and I read somewhere that hoplos can live in harmony with cichlids without causing any problems, what sorts of problems could a hoplo pose?

Thank you and your aquarium looks great by the way. :)

have 5 zebra loaches, a bristlnose pleco, two key hole cichlids, a hoplo catfish, two opaline gouramis and two angel fish cichlids.It is a 125 litre tank, what cichlids would fit in to this community?
