I don't think you would be overstocked from adding the additional fish. But, I would have to go with a Cuban.

Interesting as to why you have so much algae. But yes, a timer would be the best thing. I would simply do a 50% water change for a few weeks just to make sure things clear up. This is because as algae dies, and rots it releases carbon dioxide in the water, dramatically reducing how much...

Welcome to the forums :)

That Jewel Cichlid, definitely is a jewel! How did you get his colors so vivid?! :WHOA:

He looks great! Hopefully, you'll have a like father, like son situation. ;)

Ammonia is definitely worse, than nitrate.

The green tint to the water, could be caused by the blue lights themselves. Try limiting how much light the aquarium receives. 8-10 hours, is sufficient enough. I would do water changes once weekly, to about 50%. Your algae problem should clear itself up. Also, make sure the tank is not exposed...

With cichlids, often you will find that one, (usually a larger male) will seemingly appear to mediate the tank. I've had similar situations happen in my aquarium. What I've found is that the fish may not actually care about the other fish themselves, he just will not welcome any additional...

Dragon Gobies, are pretty neat fish. With time, they should become more active, but keep in mind that they are not very active fish. They should also be kept in a slightly brackish aquarium.

I'd definitely tell him. I'm done with people not knowing anything about fish.

Those are pretty nice finds. My male convict cichlid is slightly larger than those. Where did you find them?

I think that that would be a decent amount of aeration.

Welcome to the forums! This is a great site! I too, used to care for my teachers aquariums.

Basically.

I would go. There are numerous technological advancements on the ship, so it's quite unlikely to sink.

You're just two hours north of me! >.< If I only had the tank for them!

Welcome to the forum! :welcome: I've fed my Knife fish various diets, such as blood worms, or even tropical flakes. They don't seem to be picky eaters.

I don't see any problem with doing a 60, or even 80% water change on your aquarium, as long as you replace the lost water with a water conditioner.

I attempted to look up their conservation status, and it says they weren't evaluated.

The fish will only loose their color, if they are dyed, and it fades over time. Otherwise, if their color fades, it would be due to a poor diet, or water conditions.
