How’s it goin, I recently upgraded my powder blue dg from a 10 gallon to a 20 gallon and I also picked up a german blue ram to go along with it. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of some possible tank mates. I was thinking about doing some sort of bottom dweller and or a small...

I actually ended up moving her to her own tank,and I would agree she seems happier and has more of a personality now that she’s not chasing around my other fish lol

okay ill give that a try, appreciate it

correction: 4 juveniles 3 adults

So in my 29 g i have a juvenile convict cichlid and a small school of tiger barbs, there were 7(3 juveniles and 4 were fully grown) of them before the convict began killing/eating the small tb’s at some point whenever the lights are off. Also, on one or two of the adult barbs i can tell there...

sounds good, thanks for the help colin!

the pH was very high at 8.4, i added pH decrease to the aquarium before seeing your reply. would you advise me to do as you recommended and do 10-20% water changes every 2-3 days until the pH is where it should be?

Just got back from getting the water tested. Everything was good besides my pH which was high. I bought pH decrease and just added it to the aquarium. Do you have any idea how long it may take to see results? or should i keep bringing water to get tested daily?

opinions: is 2 dwarf gouramis and 5 h-rasboras overstocked in a 10 gallon?

does he do this during the day time? have you watched its activity at night time?

yes i did, i did a water change somewhere’s between 50-75% just now. i was just saying for the future ill begin feeding less. going get water tested tomorrow

that may be part of the problem, i think i may have been overfeeding. ill start feeding them less and see if that helps

okay will do, appreciate the help everyone

the tank was recently set up(over the past week) fish were added 2-3 days ago. correct the convict is a juvenile and so is the pictus(id say not even double most of the barbs size)i have not checked for ammonia,nitrite,nitrate,or ph but i will do so tomorrow to see if that is the problem.i did...

He seems to get along well the the bigger barbs though, the ones that can give a little aggression back to him per say. he really only picked on the smaller barbs, and doesnt mess with the pictus at all. i also dont know if i would count out the pictus as being the culprit of eaten barbs bc he...
