Hi all,
quick question on the bgkf on how fast they grow, im hoping to add one to my tank to finish it off, im aware they can grow larger in size but my tank should take care of them for a good while ( i hope)
at the moment my tank is a jewel rio 300 approx 180 litres and in it at the moment i have
10 neon tetras
3 clown loaches
4 ballon molly's
2 headbangers
2 silver sharks
4 serpae tetras
4 fry (mollies)
2 angels
at my lfs they have some bgkf in and they are about 1 1/2 inch in length im, wanting to introduce one into the tank until i get my new house sorted which im planning on building a tank into the wall ( new house will take up to about a year to complete, then about a good 2 months setting up the tank plus cycling. ( planning on around something like 400 litres)
so if anyone can give me a good indication on what size i can expect after a year would be fantoosh.
also id like to mention that i lost a clown loach the other day, no idea why, came home from work and he was at the top of the tank, no signs of infection and the rest of the fish seem happy, tanks stats are fine just one of those weird things.
since the clowns were small and all my lfs had was medium size ( around 3 inch) i took the plunge and was happy that once i got him/her home, into the tank and left him with the lights off to calm down,
once i switched on the lights i was overjoyed to see my 2 small ( 1 inch) clowns huddling around him or her. made me fell all warm inside
