I know what you can do..... |
| About Yourself: |
I have been keeping fish for more then 20 years - never tried salt water. I love to spend time watching the habits of my fish - it is very fun to watch them inter-act with each other.
Never give up on your fish - they seem to have 9 lives.
|
| Advice: |
Change water at least 2 times a month, purchase a LARGE filter if you plan on having alot of fish. Compare fish types BEFORE purchasing SOME fish do not get along |
| Fish Kept: |
all kinds mix fish, africans, cory cats, mollies,clown fish and many others |
| Plants Kept: |
mostly plastic - many are hand made by myself. I have a few live plants - vals only. |

I Changed my tank around and added lots of live plants. 90 Gallon bowfront |
| Quote: |
Keeping it all natural. |
| About Yourself: |
I work shift work at a refinery. The fish are relaxing to watch and enjoy after the work day is done. |
| Advice: |
Try not to buy entire put together kits when buying an aquarium as the componets are generally poor quality. Buy your tank separtely and upgrade in better equipment.
When going with african cichlids purchase your peacock cichlids, cats & algae eaters first and later after a couple months add your more aggresive mbuna. The mbuna may not attack the established fish in your tank but they will be very aggressive or kill new fish. Learned the hard way. |
| Fish Kept: |
25 male only african cichlids (mbunas & peacocks), 1 convict (south american), 2 catfish, 2 clown loach. |
| Plants Kept: |
All Live; Anubius, sword, java fern and one other? |

| Description: |
90 gallon bowfront, 47"x24"x14", 2 power-glo floresent lighting tubes, fluval 404 canister filter, Boyu s-2000 dual air pump, lace rock, 3 20 lb. bags of white/black african chiclid mix gravel |

-60 Gallon Malawi Mixed Mbuna Aquarium-
I just moved up to a 60 gallon from a 20L less than a month ago. Switched from gravel to pool filter sand. I got 2 AC powerheads, 2 tetra whisper ex70's. I just use a 100watt topfin heater and keeps it at a steady 79 degrees. Aqua Glo+Moonlight lighting.
Video of my tank on youtube. click high quality!

| Advice: |
There's no such thing as overfiltering :).
Do water changes at least once a week. They loveeee fresh water
If your cichlids are always hiding and not very sociable, then add a few more. It'll make them less shy and more social.
Cichlids love cucumber's and zucchini's!
Good luck :) |

| About Yourself: |
nothing is better than sitting back and tokin starring at some fish. |
| Advice: |
If you get a canister system, tap in to the out-take with a air hose. It spreads the o2 very well throughout the tank. Good for bacteria!!!!
ohhh and if you wanna make your own stand outta wood and want it to look really good.....just buy the thing! makeing it costs alotta money...This stand costs just over $1000 |
