    Ecosystem tank?

    If you feed both then its defiantly possible. I would look at a small calvus species. and then the shelldwellers. I would def only keep 1 calvus. And not more species then those 2 since your tank is quite small for multiple territorial species of cichlids. If you want an ecosystem i will...

    Ecosystem tank?

    An ecosystem is a closed, selfsustaining environment. I do take you plan on feeding the shell dwellers? The fish you wane keep as predator is gone eat the same food as the shelldwellers probably. So you just want a fish that keeps the population of shelldwellers in check right? Its possible but...

    New Baby Ornate Bichir

    bichirs sometimes swallow stones. I would watch out with your substrate, sand or fine gravel is better. Ornates are one of the fastest growers in my experience. he or she looks great :)

    How do you think of this tank stock?

    no it does not make sense. colder temperatures make aggressive fish less aggresive? no not at all, keeping fish in bad conditions makes them die earlier. Having less warmth makes coldblooded animals less active, but that does not mean its good for the fish. Please dont keep tropical fish in...

    How do you think of this tank stock?

    75 gallon is not a lot. And defiantly not enough for bigger fish. if i just google: spotted pike characin - 100gallon needed red tail baracuda - 250 ∗ 90 cm 300 gallons recommended pink tailed chalceus - 60 gallon minimum Bleekeri Cichlid -120gallon recommended whiptail catfish - 145 gallon...

    What is this?

    is it stuck on the ground or is it placed on it? thats the easiest way to find out what it is. I do think algue . Do you have new wood in it? Could also be broken down wood, kinda hard to say with this picture.

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    you could probably keep 3 acaras but i got no experience with it myself. What i would recommend is to get 1 male and 2 females if you try this. 2 males will not end up well. you might wane reduce the ph by adding oak leaves (which is also natural and fun for the fishes) or something else. i do...

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    i must agree with this tbh. I would go with the acaras since you can keep them as a pair in that tank size and you wont need to upgrade (as you would for the severum). and 1 bn ancistrus and maybe some dither fish or corydoras. sounds like an awesome tank. 2 big cichlids, group of fish on the...

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    sorry i think option two is already quite from ideal in a 80cm tank. I would not recommend putting anymore fish in it since it is already overstocked with so many fish. If you really want multiple cichlids take a look at tanganyika cichlids since they live in a lake with a looot of cichlids...

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    you did not read the message before correctly. it said: option 1: two pair, maybe something like HRPs and Rainbow cichlids or keyholes, but you have to scape it properly option 2: - a severum as the tank boss, - with few smaller cichlids(like apistrogram or altealst dwarf species) - catfish...

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    the thing is 75 gallon is still way to small for a ghost knifefish. And a year is to long to house such a fish in a 50 gallon. Please find a better home for the guy. Either way with that fish in the tank you should not put anything else with it. Its not fun for the fish and for you to house it...

    50 gallon aquarium stocking - jack, green terror, blue acara, etc.

    were still talking about a 50 gallon right? 65 gallon would be minimum for severum so i would not recommend it. 50 gallon is not a lot. Cichlids are quite territorial that means that in the wild a couple even small will probably defend a 1meter square. (what is kinda your whole tank) If you...

    Alligator Gars in coldwater ponds

    how cold does it get in the wild where they live then? I live in europe and i always would have liked an indoor pond with gars. Sadly heating costs will be massive. It gets as cold as 15C in the house. If thats possible for gars that sounds awesome to me. But only if they will have a decent...
