    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    Probably a DIY Barrel filter. Basically use a barrel as a massive canister filter.

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    Given where I live and the current plan, hillstream loaches may not be the best idea, but I’ll keep it in mind. Also I will definitely be sending pictures lol.

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    I am planning on doing this almost 100% myself. The plan would be three concrete walls and one large viewing window. And thanks for the ideas, it’s greatly appreciated.

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    I would like to mention that the high hardness of the water will only be a problem for the beginning. The reason why I say this is that since I live in south Florida, and since we have tropical weather, Im planning on this being an outdoor aquarium. A heater would only be required for a few...

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    Yup it is pretty strange overall. I have done a lot of research into fish that come from these areas, and just compiled a list of possibilities. I also have a few fish from outside the Orinoco and Amazon river basins because i personally like them, but i am still keeping to the northern South...

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    My source water is fairly neutral when it comes to PH hovering at about 7.3, but I also have access to well water which is slightly more acidic I think at around 6.4. Both sources are fairly hard water if im not mistaken but i haven't specifically tested the KH or GH but averages for water...

    Oh yeah, its gonna be really nice hopefully. Itll take some time, but I definitely have the space and the equipment needed to begin building it. Im working on a list of possibilities, but with a tank this sized, most fish would work. Lets see.

    Fish Stocking Ideas?

    Hello everyone, I've recently been toying around with the idea of creating a 2,000+ gallon fish tank (Being 20 feet long, 4-5 feet tall, and 2-3 feet wide) and basing it off of the Orinoco and Amazon river basins. I was wondering if I were to build this, what fish can I add. I was thinking a...

    Kribensis Jewel hybrid?

    No yeah they are beautiful and one good thing about living in Florida is that there are a lot of fish farms that breed rare tropical fish. Probably the main reason why I love cichlids is the variety that I can find decently close to me. And to be honest ive never kept normal Kribensis cichlids...

    Kribensis Jewel hybrid?

    That's what I thought, but the Kribensis cichlid is still defending the cave from all the Congo tetras in the tank making it seem like the eggs are still there even if they are infertile. Also I just use jewel cichlid and Kribensis cichlid to refer to their genus's since they are the most well...

    Kribensis Jewel hybrid?

    Hello everyone, I currently have 7 tanks, all of which contain cichlids of some sort. I recently rescaped a tank and modeled it after the Congo river and have Congo tetras, Kribensis cichlids and Jewel cichlid living extremely peacefully. Today i woke up with my Kribensis cichlids having laid...
