Well I found some more Oscars, I found a 3.5" Tiger to go in with my Albino and GT in the 20 long.
However I also found 3 1" Tiger/Red Oscars and could not pass them up.
My 120 gallon is going to be 6 Oscars(I want a breeding pair) and 5 Clown loaches so I went ahead and bought 5 1.25" C loaches.
I went to petsmart asked for 5 Clown loaches and only got charged for one.
The bag clearly had the item # X 5 clearly marked but the girl only charged one. I don't know I guess she messed up.
So I don't want to put the tiny oscars and loaches in with my bigger oscar because I already transferred the Giant Danios and he already ate 2 out of the 7 I put in there.
I knew I was going to massively overstock my 14 gallon tank so I bought an Eheim Ecco 2232 to put on there along with the AC30 that is already on it.
a couple weeks ago my 14 gallon contained 4 1.5" Convicts, 3 1" Oscars, and 5 1.25" Clown loaches.
Water parameters are all great and I keep doing 25% water changes every 2 days to keep nitrates down to 0 close to it.
I have had this setup for about almost two weeks now and I have noticed a few things, my convicts were not really growing that fast and would not eat all that much when they were the only fish in the tank.
Now that I have all these fish in the tank, the convicts, oscars, and clown loaches have all grown and they are all nice and plump and all the fish are very competitive when it comes to feeding time.
The diet consists of Hikari Gold, Hikari SCP, NLS 1mm sinking pellet, and shrimp pellets.
Currently, almost all the fish are pushing the 2" mark so I am guessing that the constant water changes are the reason for the growth.
I tried feeding the Clown loaches some cucumber but they ignored it.
The oscars get live crickets too from time to time.
Once the Oscars and clown loaches hit the 3" mark or close to it they along with the eheim will go to the 20 long.
My 120 should be setup and cycled within a month if all goes well.
Let the flaming begin lol...
