I have a 36 inch long and 24 inch tall and 18 inches in depth 65 gallon tank. I have

2x Blood parrots
2x three spot gourami
3x zebra danio
1x black skirt tetra
2x cherry barb
4x DAWRF aquatic frogs.
4x tiger barbs
1x Australian rainbow fish
1x male Betta

I had 4 giant danios in there too. but i moved them into my 30 gallon tank with my fire mouth cichlid.

I was going to re home the zebra danios,The cherry barbs,the male betta,and the black skirt tetra. Is that still too much. MFK shut down my other thread beacause we switched subjects. So I will not try to switch subs. Thanks!!!!
 
I am giving up some fish. So my fish will be healthier and happier. can you please reply. Thanks!!!!
 
Your thread was shut down because it was 10 pages of the same thing. U got alot of help in the cichlid section but took no ones advice so you come to the general forum to avoid the cichlid members. The Bps require to much of your 36 inch long tank so most of the community fish will have to go. You need to decide what you want out of your fish. You can keep cichlids in community tanks but not a 36 inch long 65 gallon unless you keep small cichlids. The people on here no more than what most of the websites you research know about fish because they have experience with the fish. I hope you can help your oscars pop eye, and i hope you can rehome your fish before your bio load starts to kill them off. Good luck. Also try posting pics of your fish so we can see their living conditions and health or will you avoid that like you did about members asking your age. I'm only 28 and i know a lot about the hobby but not everything. Thats why your on here is to share and learn. So start learning and take the help that people give you.

He is right Blood Parrots get up to 6" and give a lot of bio load and if no one can see what your Tank looks like then no one can help
 
come on now you got 1 thread shut down now you move over here and start asking same questions. You know the answer. Either listen to good advise from members or do what you want and stop the non sense. Try **************** maybe they will put up with your games.
 
I've told you before in about 40 other threads "Good advice only works if you're willing to use it". You have been given plenty of good advice by lots of folks around here, yet you keep asking the same questions and your fish seem to keep dying. The only thing you've really managed to do here is possibly hold the record for the most threads started about essentially the same topic.

I really hate responding because it bumps the thread, but you're just not listening to folks trying to help you. If you want your fish to stop dying, stop overstocking your tanks and /or buy bigger tanks. It really is that simple.
 
OK i will listen. But can i get rid of all the small community fish. I wanted to keep 2 three spot gouramias,1 Australian rainbow fish,and possibly some tiger barbs. I will be re-homing about 75 percent of the community fish. I just wanted to keep my favorite community fish. This sounds fine to me. What do you think? Do not freak out I am just asking a question. Thanks!!!!

My new oscar is in a 75 gallon tank by himself. The Oscar is recovering from pop-eye.
