coolest fish for a 29 gallon

[frogman5]

any ideas

[frogman5]

or wat would u do with a 29

[Sandman334]

use it as a sump for my 30gal tank.

[synodontisjack]

what are the dimensions

[andres]

use it as a sump for my 30gal tank.

:ROFL: knew someone would say it

[djdlemma]

Planted with loaches.............

[frogman5]

the dimensions are 30x 12 x 18...not really into loaches any fish with a bunch of personality

[synodontisjack]

macrognathus cirucumcinctus or m.pancalus

[frogman5]

yeh i may do a spiny eel not sure tho

[jworth]

tiger barbs

[haynchinook334]

use it as a sump for my 30gal tank.
HAHA!!!

a nice planted tank with neons and gold rams.

[Cblake007]

put smaller fish in it until you get a bigger tank

[HPIZZLE]

u could do a singal RBP in there for a while. or a datnoid for a really long time. buy you would need to upgrade...

[Pyramid_Party]

Small brackish tank

[frogman5]

not really into the whole brackish thing any other suggestions

[dzb912]

get a baby whale
those are cooooollll
or a single rbp
or some kind of rhomb
elong mabey?

[frogman5]

yeh i may be doing the rbp or the rhom.....if i could find a baby whale that would be awesome i used to see them every once in awhile havent seen them for along time tho

[nuggets]

buffalo heads , shellies,and cyprichromis would be nice

[frogman5]

been looking for a buffalo head locally for awhile no such luck....i may do the spiney eel since i have been thinking about doing an eel for quite some time

[ghostknifefish0909]

Maybe a Leopard ctenopoma? they are awesome!


-GFK

[cl0wn knife]

1 gulper catfish

[frogman5]

keep the ideas coming haha...but i guess it is watever the lfs has that will be coming home with me tomorow

[Pyramid_Party]

Maybe a tank with a crab or 2.

[Bderick67]

Go with a Silver arowana or a Redtail Catfish and then just tell everyone it's a growout tank.


Or do some research and find out what kind of fish belong in a 29g tank. Asking questions here can be good, but as you can see from my idiotic reply above, the answers you get may not be necessarily accurate.

[crenipterus svenagalus]

small crenicichla. compressiceps or regani? i believe a 29 with a bunch of pvc would make for a great little breeding tank! pikes are such interesting curious fish. i think you would really enjoy them if given the chance!

[Cichlaholics Anonymous]

if you want personality just get a pair of rainbow cichlids.

[cassharper]

ok, minus the obvious joke reply. REALLY? Cyps in a 30? Yes there length may not be an issue, but have you ever watched one swim? Plus they are schoolers. 55g min, they get real cool at 75g.

Red bellies can (theoretically) get 12", I've seen lot and lots that are 10". If you have ever seen one you can say they have a good amount of body mass, that's a lot of waste. Don't use it as a grow out, get something that you can house for life. It's not fair for the fish.

[cassharper]

and so you don't get the wrong idea, DWARF crenichlia should be emphasized if you decide to go that route

[frogman5]

yeh i wasnt going to go with the rbp or any pirahna for that matter...ill just see wat they got tomorow and update this tomorow

[frogman5]

those dwarf crenichlia are cool i hope i can found 2 of those

[Swiftwater]

6 exodons and a shrimp

[frogman5]

update came home with 2 oddball clown loaches both just nearly an inch one has half a stripe and the other has about 3/4 of a stripe 6 dollars had to get them

[Thedaniokeeper]

A lone mormyrid.
Elephant nose, baby whale, or maybe a horde of guppies. :)

[frogman5]

couldnt resist the clowns

[Arturo]

Planted shrimp tank.

[XxPrudencexX]

A nice planted pea puffer tank u could fit a bunch in a 29. They also got tons of personality.

[frogman5]

already got the fish guys

[crenipterus svenagalus]

you do realize they will eventually outgrow that tank right?

[kevbc03]

Put a pair of convicts in there. See if they"ll breed?

[christ4paul]

600 fancy guppies

[2004exrider]

HE ALREADY GOT SOME FISH! haha.
