    For Sale Pacu

    IN AMERICA I CAN BUY THESE FOR $5 AND THEY ARENT VERY SOUGHT AFTER BECAUSE OF THEIR GROWTH RATE. GOOD LUCK BUT YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF JUST KEEPING HIM UNTIL HE GETS TOO BIG, CHOP HIM UP AND FEED HIM TO YOUR OTHER FISH.

    Fastest Growing Aquarium Plant?

    I want the satisfaction of having real plants but I hate how slow a lot of them grow. I would like a plant that grows very fast to quickly give my tank that natural look. preferably a pond plant. Thanks.

    Thickness

    If you don't wanna spend a million bucks youll prob get a baby or juvie at around 6'. hell be like 1/2' wide. a real big fish might eat em but most wont because they have some sick spines.

    emergency (first post)

    This is bull, just change the water every now and then. the bacteria will form up eventually but even then who cares? You have a total of $8 worth of fish and I bet youve spent at least 100. I used to have a goldfish in a bowl. Everyday I poured him out into the sink, refilled his bowl, took him...

    Please help... Internall parasite infection

    quarantine the gt right now, drain and sanitize everything, house the gt in a bucket and try to treat him that way. at least your other fish wont die too.

    Schooling species suggestions?

    Good call on the rainbow fish I will look into them. However EDJDs are a little out of my price range.

    what im doing now

    I prefer fish but if I were to get a reptile it would be an iguana.

    Schooling species suggestions?

    In my experience it depends on the fish. Ive kept a jag and a JD in a 55 without conflict but then had an oscar and a pacu that hated eachother. Ive kept bluegill with oscars and goldfish without issue. I take it in individual cases just like dogs. I DO know that if i get a nice little school of...

    Red tail barracuda

    Those are cool. How big do they get?

    Schooling species suggestions?

    yeah I just did some research on them. They grow way too big. Theres no way I can do a school of 10-15 10" fish. Im rethinking the jag and considering some smaller predatory cichlid. I have a 75g bowfront so space is limited. Im thinking something like clown loach size but not bottom dwelling...

    Schooling species suggestions?

    Thanks. Im ideally just looking for a schooling species big enough to not get eaten, and small enough to not demand too much territory.

    Need a compatible monsterfish with current stock?

    You could try different SA/CA cichlids. Jaguar cichlid, jack dempsey, oscar, green terror. Or if you want something less aggressive you could get a paroon shark, or a large catfish. One of my favorites is a Pike Cichlid.

    Schooling species suggestions?

    I am planning on a setup with only 1 or 2 predatory fish (maybe a JD or a Jaguar cichlid, not sure yet) and I also want to have a school of a different species (10-15). Im looking for something not too aggressive and not too small to be eaten by predators. Also something that will not grow too...
