This isn’t because I want any marine fish,I’m rather content with my freshwater tropical fish but I’m just trying to do some research for future reference. I love the different species of marine tropical fish and would one day like to become an owner of some. What size tank should you ideally buy, how many fish in one tank etc. I am going to buy some books eventually.
I have tiger barbs, gold gourami, bala shark, pleco, rainbow shark, Cory cats, clown loach, and my other tank jack Dempsey and a tiger Oscar and angle fish.
Okay so I was thinking about getting some fish but I don’t know which kind to get and how many I could get in upto a 20g tank. I was thinking of:
Fancy guppies
Bloodfin tetra
Algae eater( I don’t know which kind would be best)
Angle fish
Redtailed shark
I was thinking of maybe getting mystery snails to go along with them.
Tell me how many of each and who to put with who
Tthanks
I have a 35 gallon fresh water aquarium, it has one sliver dollar in it, two angle fish, one beta shark, one mini cat fish and one bottom dweller. It has a duel oxygenation system, a filter, various fake plants, etc. The problem is the underside of the aquarium light hood keeps getting green from algae and the water is never crystal clear anymore. I know about checking the
nitrates, and ph balance and that when you clean the water you need to leave some of the old water at the bottom so that the ecosystem doesn’t get messed up. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can make the water crystal clear again (I suction the rocks about once a month), and how to keep the underside of the hood from not getting green all the time from algae. I was also wondering how many more fish I could possibly add to the tank, what other fresh water fish are compatiable, etc.
I am relatively new to marine and reef fish and some of the live rock that I purchased a year ago is now overgrown with mushrooms. I dislike them in my tank as they are taking over my other corals.
Does anyone know what type of fish or invert might eat my mushroom and leave my other corals alone. I just have some polyps and xenia. Or other ideas on how to get rid of them. Thanks.
okay i want to buy either 1 of these fish only 1 of them though which 1 doesnt mind to be kept alone?
20gallon tank
This is the first time my angle fish lay eggs. The father was doing a good job in taking care of them but today when i put warmer water to the tank to make it 78F, the father stop caring for the eggs and in the afternoon they were all gone.Was it my fault?
i have a 10gallon tank with some guppies and a angle fish and i was reading that i should give them live fish food.what is that?my guppies are small so i dont see them eating another fish.
why do my fish always hide behind the rocks when i go near the tank?is there any way i can make them come out.the only time i see them is when i feed them.any help would be magic.
