My New Stocking

[michellebradford]

hi

ive been using this site for a while and im finding it very helpful listen to these people they give good helpful advice, and they DO know what they are talking about.
My suggestion is this take back the fish this was suggest to me and it was what i did and i couldnt of been more pleased with the way my other fish grew and they are so much happer with all there space.

They are only trying to help you asked for advice on your stocking and that is what they have given you. Listen to what they say and then its up to you to choose weather you do anything that they suggest

im sorry ive gone on a bit but i do think they are all very helpful

You've already been told in previous threads about the stocking of your tank. There is no point asking for advice about stocking if you are not going to listen.
It's your fish that I feel really sorry for.

just take a look on my sig plz is it ok

]That BGK and Clown Loach will need like a 100 gallon tank when it's all said and done, they both can get around a foot long, your fine right now but in 6 or so months it will need a bigger setup. And I've heard the pictus catfish can get a foot long as well, it is a predator fish, and when it gets big enough it will eat anything small enough for it to eat.

Honestly, your tank would look better and be better for you and the fish if you took 'em back and got some apprepriate ones for your tank.

The Pictus will get to about 7" but you're right, it is a predatory fish. They also need plenty of swimming space as they are an active fish.

Some people just don't get it, do they?. Just what is the point of asking for advice, then ignoring it?. I pity your fish, I really do.

Not one to jump on the bandwagon but i did also infact tell you ages ago that the BGK, common plec and clown loach will get far too big to live in there and also the pictus will eat the smaller fish, we are not saying this because we want people to have "crap looking tanks" i would love a tank with all those fish in but the fact is you cant put them in a tank that small as they will suffer, if you dont believe us then look on various fish websites for the recommended tank sizes for these fish.
