I have a group of 3- 3.5"(d) Red Hook SD's. I am trying figure out the future bio-load of my 55 gallon tank when all of my fish are full grown. I have been trying to research their full grown size, but I have seen people quote 5-12". I NEED ANSWERS! Also, i am wondering if there is any...

Wow, that is really sharp looking. Are those reds? Do they have any aggression towards one another?

Well, I don't have it, but it looks pretty frivolous. I mean, if you really want to log information about your aquarium, why not just make a spreadsheet?

It's a 24x12x15 (inches) ...or something close to that. The betta fish is in his own little 5gal.

I use a rubber band and a rock ;) .. I should sell that...

It has been about 6 months. It doesn't look infected, but the skin tissue has been slowly peeling away. It's starting to look better, I just wonder if she will ever get to a point where she can eat stuff that is better for her size. They get along fine now, can you explain why she needs to go...

For those of us who are in the US, a "courgette" is a "zucchini". I got kinda thrown until I looked it up :shifty:

A while ago, I though I could make friends of a Jack Dempsey and a Green Terror. It worked for a little while, but after about a week, they started a fierce jaw locking bout. Thankfully, nobody died, but the green terror ended up with a split bottom jaw, which makes it difficult for her to nab...
