Fish Fanatic
Hi all decided to interact with everyone after reading so much from these forums. Also get to show off my tank and fishy friends.
I have two tanks a 36g bow-front and a 60g which is currently being cycled
The 36g was my first tank as an adult and has been an awesome learning experience. I've had it going for a little more than a month now. It has 8 tiger barbs (4 reg, 2 albino, 2 green), 2 Balloon rams, 2 platies, crayfish and a mystery snail. It is lightly planted but looking to add a few more plants. It has 2 Aqueon quiet flow 30 filters. I'm having a a little trouble with an ammonia spike currently but i think that is cause i stocked too many to fast. Oops. Doing frequent water changes and the ammonia is dropping.
The 60g is a lucky pick up and since im having so much fun with the 36 i thought one more would double the fun. It is currently cycling. I'm planning on putting African cichlids in there but haven't figured out exactly what combo i will go with. I really like the peacock and the electric yellow labs so i would like those to get worked in there some how. Bit confusing on what fish will most likely work with others but trudging through a lot of reading so hopefully can figure it out . Any recommendation or even just fun suggestions are very welcome.
