Hello, I am back :) Sorry for the absence. I've been looking, searching and thinking about what I want to do with my tank and I think I've figured it out! I really like the Altolamprologus Calvus, specially the black pearl colour pattern, and I want my aquarium to focus around them. I've been...

Yeah I’m pretty sure I’ll do a rift lake tank! I hope they see this thread then! Thanks for the heads up and all the help :) Merry Christmas

Hey Thanks for the reply I’ve checked and all these fish should be able to live in my water hardness as far as I could tell. I’m just unsure about the stocking and such Cheers

Yeah i used that site. Still unsure What to do

Hello I'm planning on doing a 71G Lake Tanganyika Biotope aquarium and I need help with some stocking :) (It should also be noted I'm new to the hobby and this will be my first aquarium as an adult!) Right now I've planned the following: 2x Julidochromis Marlieri, 2x Neolamprologus leleupi, 2x...

Okay so I´ve done some digging and I'm actually pretty hooked on the Lake Tanganyika Biotope! While I do find plants really nice, I guess I'll have to live without a dense vegetation :) I've already decided on some fish, however as far as i can read they should be kept in pairs. I've thought...

Well lake Tanganyikan fish looks really nice and i could see myself doing this. A bit of a shame of the very little amount of plants however (also not really a fan of shelldwellers, as i have a phobia of snails, so the shells creep me out haha). I will look into Sri Lanka and Myanmar (Probably...

Hey! Sorry i've been away from home Can you be more concrete with region biotomes i can do? What are some of the fish? ^^ cheers

Yeah thats what i thought. Well its a shame, my options have really been limited now. Most of the fish I want require soft water sadly. Think i might need to get an osmosis plant or something

So i checked with my local aquarium shop. They told me all their fish are raised and have adapted to regular tapwater in my area and that they will do fine, as they are breed in captivity and are not wild. I have no idea if this is true or not, but they told me that i should not worry. Is this...

Ah damm thats a shame. Was really gettting hooked on my aquarium haha! Guess ill look into something else than!

As far as i can see i can still use Pearl Gourami and Harlequin Rasboras. Not sure tho

Oh wait! I looked at the wrong region lol! My water hardness is between 18-24dH! Sorry about that

Hmm what could i do? This is of course tap water. Is there no way i can buy water or do something to change it? sorry very new to all this. Again it might be wrong. I've had an aquarium years ago when i was a kid. Were i had Tiger Barbs, Corydoras, Plecos, Neon Tetras and platies.

Yeah its seems like it above 30dH. For the pH i'll have to buy some kind of tool i think
