cichlids rubbing on stuff

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What is that?
 
Oh, I don't know of anywhere that sells them especially cheap.
 
thats ok i just thought you might you seem to know a pretty good amount when it comes to this stuff. i found one for 70 dollars with a 3 year warranty
 
You gotta love a good warranty.
 
i had 15 fish die in two days i have two cichlids left an a raphel catfish i put them in my 55 i set up an they seem to be doing better all the paramters are good in this tank an 3 fish shouldnt be too bad it should cylce pretty good this time i got some bacterial supplement in it an i have some media that has a head start so things should be better this time around
 
I did read both threads - It seems they got you on the right track. I just wanted to throw in a reminder - do be to overanxious to add more fish. If it were me - I'd add no more than 2 fish at one time and wait several weeks to add anymore. This will help the bacteria to slowly increase to handle a larger bioload without creating more ammonia than it can handle. Adding lots of fish at one time can start you problems all over again

Oops typo - Don't be to overanxious to add more fish.
