    Door Pike Tankmates

    I have a 260 gallon with 4 Channa pleurophthalma. I’m thinking of adding an odoe pike to the tank. Is this likely to work? The channa haven’t been aggressive to any other fish they’ve been kept with.

    Jaguar Pairing

    Anybody have experience pairing and breeding jaguars? Had an 8" female for a few months and just bought a 10" male for her a few days ago. Introduced him to the tank and she followed him around constantly and they seemed to be getting on great. Next day I got home from work and they started...

    Gravel with polys?

    I'm using gravel in my tank currently with an 18" ornate, 12" delhezi and an 11" lap. Is there any issue with using a gravel bottom? The previous owner of the ornate and delhezi used gravel with them for the 3 years he had them with no issues but I've read there can be issues with them...

    Losing interest in the hobby

    I went through the same thing for a long time, buying and selling fish, changing stock and rescaping my tank constantly and now for some reason the spark is just back. I'm loving just watching my tank, love feeding them and love maintaining the tank. I've kept all the fish I currently have...

    Saltwater vs Freshwater fish?

    I've just closed down my salt water tank and I'm going back to freshwater. Got fed up with buying ro water every couple of weeks, buying salt, mixing salt water every week for water changes, testing salinity and topping the tank off with ro every day etc. The fish and corals are amazing but I...

    75G Stocking

    Have bought a new 75G tank and I'm looking for stocking suggestions, preferably predatory fish. Don't want to keep small community fish or a large single wet pet.

    RTC and TSN

    Thanks for the reply. Just did some reading and if I stuck with the 3 pacu, the TSN and my giant gourami the max weight these fish would get to in the wild is less than 250lbs. The TSN was a rescue from a 180 and is now in my 300, it's around 20" long. The pacu were given to me by an LFS because...

    RTC and TSN

    Currently planning my indoor pond and it's going to be a 10ft diameter intex pool, 1200 gallons. Stock so far will be my 3 red belly pacu and my TSN. I want to add a silver arowana and a red tail cat. I'm not buying the red tail but will wait until I see one being offered free from a small tank...

Long term plan when I move house is to have a 10x4x2.5 tank built but at the moment i'm looking for options for when they outgrow this tank. I'm thinking of using an above ground swimming pool, i've seen...

    Midas injury

    Honestly I have no idea, the way the guy said it sounded like it happened recently. I've had him for a few days now and he hasn't eaten, hopefully just still taking time to settle in.

    Midas injury

    Picked up a large male Midas a few days ago and it had an injury on its face. The owner said it was caused by breaking a heater. It looks like a deep gash across his forehead. Should I be worried about it? Any tips to help it heal? He's very aggressive and trying to get at me through the glass...
