would Apisto Redfaced Macmasteri work?

ended up doing it all last night.

I'll go to Lowes tomorrow and grab some, is there a brand that you personally stick to? It's not so much that I am in a rush rather I'm trying to better understand my timeline. When I set up the tank last week, I used 50% of the water from my 10 gal (so about 5gal of cycled water) and the old...

I brought the fish back and went to buy sand, however, they were out (such is my luck this week). new shipments will not be in until Tuesday. How long should I wait before trying to stock? Would black rocks be okay if I cant get sand.

If I bring them back right now what would be a better fit? I just want healthy fish. Im floating as we speak.

Oh boy. So the platy he just sold me won't do well, he sexed them all and they are all female, he said they are a little heartier so we should have a better outcome. I can definitely change my gravel, not a big deal there. But is there a way to soften the water? I'm pretty frustrated with...

I definitely appreciate all advise I'm learning still and every bit helps. I went in today and grabbed 2 red wag platy and 2 Starburst Mickey mouse platy to get things started. He pointed them out and my daughter loved them, he said they would help with my nitrates and are a good fish to get...

That is a Beautiful tank! I have two Green cory in my daughters 10 gal with 4 guppies I'm thinking that's where I'm headed for the bottom of the 29, Tigar barbs are beautiful as well its so hard to pick.

Yoyo Loaches, But I have not been able to find a healthy supply. Pet Smart (being the only Aquatics store in my area) seems to only carry very small babies and after my second failed attempt at adding Yoyos I contacted the chain and they advised me that the most recent supplies have all been...

I have a Cycled 29 Gallon Aquarium, I'm looking for something to put in it. My original idea was Loaches but my local supply is not very healthy. Doesn't really matter if its a schooling fish or a show. Just want something pretty that is relatively easy to care for.
