Operation Giant Danio Extraction......

[nuth88]

Hey All~

You Convinced Me,

I Have removed all of the remaining (4) Giant Danios from my 125 Monster Tank....

Them Boys was a runnin' for their lives! They done had a Posse after em!

I waited after my Tank lights went out popcorn: ) and sure enough, My Tiger O was hunting them down!

So I did a Monster Size water change, moved everything around, and chased down the Giant D's. (Took me almost a 1/2 Hour) & Relocated them to the Severum tank. (I Removed the 3 Con's and the Firemouth, then replaced them with the Giant D's, also lightening up my Bio-Load)

I don't know who is more Tired.........

Me or the Damn Danios??

Now on to replace my dithers!!!

Tomorrow............

Giant danios are a pain to catch, took me half an hour to net my 4 out of my 10 gal.

Goose!!! GOOOOOSEEE!! Haha...love TopGun....

Anywhoot, there are several types of dithers you could use...not just SD or Tinfoils. Basically anything that is deepbodied would work out for yaz. Also depends on how you are using the dithers. To lower aggression or make the fish more active? Severums, firemouths, and giant gourami are some GREAT dithers...

That does make a difference, I'm trying to lower aggression, what would you do?

Lots and lots of tiger barbs...haha..those bugga are fast and the big numbers would confuse the mess outa the other fish. Probably wouldn't work to hot with the O's though. I wouldn't care if some got eaten though, so probably not your route.

Addin more cichlids might help to dissipate the aggression, but it will also raise your bioload. Don't get any more oscars or texas though, cuz if they pair up there will be hella aggression right on. Clown loaches are attractive, and TFD has some pretty good sized ones for relatively cheap. Active, colorful, and full of 'tude.
