I am growing out a group of wild true M. festae babies and wondered if it was at all possible to later put one female in a 90 gallon tank with one male Jack Dempsey (garden variety JD, not EBJD). I picked this guy up as a rescue and thought perhaps he might be able to survive in a setup with...

Alright, sooo... I posted about adding an Oscar to my tank with Tiger Barbs and Crays, but have decided against it... However, I now took out the more aggressive, two-pincered Cray and put it into my father's large tank after one of the barbs had lost a fin on one side and couldn't swim, only...

I was wondering if a red fin wolf fish would be ok as an addition to my tank, my lungfish is roughly 12 inches and the gar is 10 inches, if this is not a great idea is there any other suggestion you guys have for me I would like a fish that eats live minnows or meaty food off the bottom like the...

I currently have a 7 inch jade goby and I want to have a tankmate with him. I only need one tankmate due to size and stuff. I am deciding on 3 fish, a bluegill (one I want the most), cow goby or a flowerhorn. I know the bluegill likes more of a colder water but, they're tough fish. Which of...

Has anyone here ever kept mustache cats with their stingrays? I have a pair that need to be separated and am considering putting one in one ray tank and the other in a different ray tank. Not sure it the will bother the rays though.

Ok, long-time reader but new member to MFK, so I apologize for any faux pas. I've finally picked up my own silver arowana, under two friggin' inches! I've been eventually planning for one so I've done a fair amount of research (and or course have long-term plans for housing) but the biggest...

Ok, I have 2 -two inch EBA's, 2 -one inch EBJD, and a 1.5inch Diadema cichlid in a 125g. Im so hesitant to add anything aggressive because I want all of these fish to survive. Does anyone have experience with meeki fire mouth aggression? I was also going to get 2 more EBA'S. I don't want...

Hi. Right now i am having a 2,5 cm long leopard cteno. I want to put something nice for a bottom fish and something herbivore. Should i put 3 sterba cory since they are a bigger species of cory or a red fin shark since both of them are kinda passive aggresive fish? Or is it more suitable if i...

Hello. I have a 75 gallon tank with one poly, a black knife, and a peacock eel. Them being mostly bottom dwellers I’d like to have some higher level and more colored fish and a clean up fish. I’ve read that plecos can eat the polys slime coat so I’m looking for recommendations.

Hello all! I’ve been a lurker here for a while but finally made an account to post some questions I have. I currently have a very established 75 gallon stocked with a motley crew of Corydora Catfish (a few Albinos, Juli, and Pandas) that essentially school. Most are fairly small. In the same...

Recently bought a 7" Jardini arowana and moved him in today with my 5" asian rt. Has anyone who has housed these two together (or any arowana with a asian redtail catish) experience any nipping from the rt to the aro? Is the rt just displaying territories? From what I understood you could have...

As the owner of three potential giants (CK, pbass, black ear pangasius) and a medium-sized pleco, I've been told my 60g is overstocked. As of now, everyone in my tank is doing well; none of my fish are over 7 inches. I wish I could keep them all, but my tank limits my options. I am looking at an...
