I do 30% water changes every week.I have a ehiem ecco 2236 cannister filter.I had plants,but with 80watts of light I was having problems.My plants were anubias plants.I took them out and put them in one of my 30gal.tanks.So I'll add more driftwood and some clay pots for the loaches and leave things ...

My three featherfins range from 6 to 8" in size,it's hard to measure them as they will not stay still when I come near their tank.The large one always starts a game of tag,chasing the other two around the tank.The ocellifer cats are 1.5 inches or so,and I still have them in a 10gal. tank.I might try ...

Right now they are in a 10gal. with poolfilter sand bottom,the size of the three is around 1 to 1.5" so they may be in there a while.I really don't know if I'll put them with my featherfins or start a new tank.I have some time to think that over.Thanks for the reply,cjp.

See,That's it in black and white.....,better go and hide anything that can be used to throw or swing with.Thanks again,now were did I put my bike helmet?

I felt like a little guilty at first,but took them anyway.I just might get the 55gal.it gives one more reason to start up another tank.Now I just need to explain this to my wife.They just don't seem to get it sometime.Thanks for the reply.

Last saturday I was in a local petshop,they had in two tanks some catfish that had no names on one tank and on the other tank was a sign that said ocellifer catfish $9.99ea.I called the young man over and asked what kind of catfish was in the unmarked tank.He told me they were misc.corys.I was told ...

One of my featherfin cats had a case of fungas and I had treated the tank with Pimafix ,and Melafix together.They take care of other problems that might come up as well.Both are made by (aq. pharm.)Hope this helps.cjp.

Sorry about the number of posts,been having all kinds of problems with my pc,it did not show that my post went thru,so I hit the submit three more times.Thanks for the welcome.cjp.

You might want to try pool filter sand,it's grain is much larger than play sand.I have a small tank set up with this,keep the sand's depth at under 2",and add mts to aid in keeping the sand turned over.One thing to remember,mts will multiply very fast,so you'll want to keep some loaches that love to ...
