its all good im planing a bigger tank for my knife eel duet. 130+ he should be coll in that right. also its gunna have increased floor space in hope of getting a stingray of some small veriety like a retculated or motoro.

thanks for the response, but a puffer is out of the question, the last thing i need is to have a puffer ( who i have a hard time blaming for anything) chewing on my bgk, i might look into some cats, i had a crazy idea last night im glade that passed. my lfs has a lung fish, and although there...

so im looking for an oddball that tends to be a mid swimmer or will at least swim in the middle, im thinking a knife but i have a bkg and dont want one thats nocturnal any thoughts?

mines been eating blood worm and tubflex that i give him and has tryed to catch a guppy or two but when he gabs them they end up swimming out of his mouth. hes really small so ill give him time he does seem to be learning though

so the other day my peacock eel jumped and killed its self. ( while i was trying to feed the tank) im thinking of getting a new eel but dont want a new peacock its to soon. would a fire eel be ok in a 90 gallon?

so i just got him today. ( as a late birthday present) im wondering what you guys feed yours. it seems interested in tubflex worms but i havent seen him eat to much.

yeah i have gathered as much, im doing my home work on this and im beliveing more then on change a week would be good for this fish. but i dont think i could do 5-6 i would love that but i dont have it in my budget ( im going to put them all in at once so they will all get settled at once and...

they range from puffer to puffer ( like with all puffers), but they tend to be territorial little fin nippers. the fact is you can never be sure till you have one so maybe you should experiment, but any thing that eats him will be dead and you should have a back up tank fully cycled for him if...

so hes a bit chewed up due to bad stocking at the lfs, but hes makeing a fine recovery. he eats well and i will see him swimming around most of the night looking for food and any time in the day when the other fish disturb him ( but its usually only from place to place) my question is will he...

he is cute usually puffers a finicky and if wild caught after a certain age they wont do well at all but if you get them young then you should be fine i have never had problems keeping a puffer alive then again im not going to be owning this species till after work today so i guess i cant speak...

see thats my problem im scouring every thing looking for there requirements and someone ive been taken to has had there's for over a year now and shes keeping it in full marine and 65 degrees. which is weird because there from china and Vietnam but its working for her and also i hear that...

so im setting up my second marine tank at the moment i have it all set up with all the plumbing done and all the live rock in but im wondering if i could lower the water temperature to about 65 degrees so i can get a Takifugu ocellatus which is at my lfs so im wondering what the best way to do...
