The silver fox is The Chinese Algae Eater. It was probably the one who attacked as the fancy lace catfish barley ever leaves the castle in the tank. I doubt the loach was the one who attacked it because it went behind the castle as soon as I put it in and has only come out twice. About the tank...

Tank size: 20 us gallon high pH: unknown ammonia:unknown nitrite:unknown nitrate:unknown kH: unknown gH: unknown tank temp: Upper seventy's lower eighty's. Fish Symptoms (include full description including lesion, color, location, fish behavior): Angel fish was fine when I put it in yesterday...

The 2 fish are platy Varitous or Varitus. The red tailed shark is not a reaglur one with black fins. Instead all its fins are red and its body is black. The Flying Fox or Siamese algae eater and the red tailed shark have been getting along fine. If any of the fish get to big I can move them...

I went out and bought 2 vartious (can't spell it), 1 flying fox and 1 red tailed shark. My old 160GPH filter broke so I got online and bought a 210 GPH of the same kind on Ebay. the old filter had a melted top so I also moved the heater over. I got a large castle and a small castle for Christmas...

I went out about a month ago and bought 2 neon tetras, 1 lace catfish and a silver and black angle fish. I also have my brothers black band cory (I think thats what it is) in the 20 US gallon high. I've been feeding them FLUVAL tropical fish flakes at the store owners suggestion. A few days ago...

Thanks. I got a 20 us gallon high at a yard sale a few weeks ago. I might use that instead of a ten gallon. Is there a site online where you could buy cherry shrimp?

I don't live near any SW beaches. Do they need salt?

Ok, thanks for the quick reply. I know of a person nearby that sells farm raised shrimp but I'm not sure what kind it is. If I did put in a snail I would probably just put in 1 so it can't reproduce. Do you know if cherry shrimp can be put in with a pleco or some other kind of cat fish or would...

Hello, I was thinking of getting saltwater invertebrates and a jaw fish but after realizing how much salt would cost I decided I might go freshwater. I have no tanks right now but I plans to get a 20 US gallon mudskipper tank before a freshwater one so it will probably be around 6 months to a...

Ok thank you for all of your information. Do you know of a cheap (say under 50 us dollars) way to make a tidal tank without changing the SG? I was thinking if I made a small "river" with a pump from the main water area and then ever time there should be a tide change that a timer would increase...

Mudskippers are brackish at a SG of around 1.005-1.015 If you do get one try to stay away from Atlantic mudskippers. They fight with each other a lot. I would recommended the Indian Mudskipper because their smaller and can be put in larger groups. I haven't got anything yet but I have been...

I will probably go with a 20 gallon high if I do anything. I'll have to wait a wile though because I haven't even started on my other tank that I'm setting up first. It will probably be at least 6 months before I start on this one. If I did a 20 gallon high would it be big enough for a small...

This is a paper I had to do for school. I though it would be nice to post it on TFF. I researched mudskippers and fiddler crabs a lot before so this is what I chose to do it on.  If anything is incorrect please tell me. Enjoy.                 Mudskippers And Fiddler Crabs by Gnoflet 6/10/2015  ...

I have read up on mangroves and they would have to be mainly out of the water so they would ether go out the top, which would make it hard to keep jumping fish in, or you would have to have a half empty tank. I would put in fully aquatic plants or else go with a mudskipper tank which need a half...

Ok. Do you where to get live bloodworms? Also I was thinking of hatching brine shrimp for them.(after I got them of course.) Do you know if they would eat it?
