I see a lot of fat bellies. keep us posted as they grow. Umbees are on my bucket list

I have found consistency with pH is they key to happy fish. Letting it fluctuate trying to reach a set pH can be worse than being a few points off. Some fish won't color up as well if they are too far off all the time.

I have 6 or 7 jewels in with 12 inch oscars. They have some spunk to them. They get a super bright red when they are happy. The males and females get different spangling patterns and turn different shades of red.

Female red Devils tend to not get so big. I had a female who would bang the glass.

Thanks for the replies. I did some research and they are cool fish.

How big do they get? Do they get heavily spangled?

I'm not sure what this is. No one at the pet shop knew what it was either.

OH, and is it worth it to get one with a heater or build an inline heater. Yall know how destructive oscars are.

It's come time to upgrade the filtration on my 75 gallon. Currently I'm running an emperor 400, I think it's a penguin single bio wheel and a Fluval 306. I have two 12+ inch oscars, a 12 inch pleco and probably 7 or 8 jewels. I'm tired of the noise. I want to put another canister on it and...

The two oscars are both about 12 inches long. The one which is mostly red is notably bigger. There is maybe 10-15 jewels in there and a 10 or 11 inch pleco. I've had the oscars, pleco and the parent jewels for roughly 2.5 years. the oscars were only 3 inches then. I've decided on a 1 1/2"...

I currently have a 75 gallon with two 12 inch oscars. I have been keeping fish for a while now, but I have never had a drilled tank. I found a bare 120 gallon with twin overflows and each box has two holes. One hole on each side measures 1 3/4" and the other measures 1 1/2". My question is with...

I thought I would share my tadpole. I've had him since January. He's in with two yellow labs and a couple of rosies. Sent from my SCH-I545 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

He is pretty big. How big is the tank he's in? Sent from my SCH-I545 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Try it both ways and run your pH, ammonia, nitrates and nitrites numbers here on the board. Sent from my SCH-I545 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Just my own theorys but feel free to correct me. In line wouldn't be as efficient as them separate because the second one wouldn't be receiving the same concentration of ammonia nitrates and so forth. Your filtering the water before you filter the water. The first filter would begin to clog...

Great color. He looks like he would be a good single fish. On my list of wants for sure. Sent from my SCH-I545 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

I live in South Carolina and you can get blues and channel cat for 5-10 bucks for 2-3 inches or I can go catch them up the street. Caught a 75 lb one a few years back. They get monstrous and will eat everything usually. Anything short of a small pond won't hold these monsters. Both are really...

True parrot cichlids would be cool. Sent from my SCH-I545 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

They are about 11.5 inches now. They live in a 75 gallon with a pair of jewels and about 20 baby jewels that are about to hit 1.5 inches. They get fed a varied diet of pellets, flakes, gut loaded feeders, crawdads, bugs and pieces of shrimp. Plus whatever I think they may eat. They had a...
