If u dident know i am raising two 1 inch reddevils in a 15 gallon.I decided to give one up and keep one in the 15 gallon for 2 months.I am upgrading to a 90 gallon at the end of the year.I dont want to upgrade to quick for such a small fish that could die,by some freak accident so this is the question.What size tank could i keep the reddevil in for about 8 months and not stunt it.I was thinking about a 55 or something by what do u guys think.On my 15 gallon i have a ac 200(50) gallon filter with a ac 10 powerhead.any helps is apreciated.and please tell me something that could help me not some smack about how i take care of fish.

In theory, you could keep it in the 15g if you do enough water changes. I'd suggest daily OR setup another 15g. Move him from one to the other each day. Drain and refill the empty one.

go buy a tank for the RD in the 40gal
go buy a tank for the butti in the FN 29 GALLON!!!!
go buy a 125 for the pike and oscar
stop asking repetitive questions about your fish

after this you can raise up some more red devils

Chill chill, IMho dont buy a tank unless you can house the fish when its full grown. But idk what im talking about i bought 2 arowanas and there in my 120gallon. Also i think he would be fine in a 55gallon for a couple of months but you do need some bigger tanks.

take the first sentence and reverse it. dont buy FISH unless you HAVE a tank big enough for the fish full grown. its real easy to say your getting bigger tanks soon but ive heard that a million times and rarely do they follow threw. you need to get some priorities strait. lets hope your mommy will let you get some larger tanks.

I said i am upgrading tanks!


and i said earlier i apreciate the advice i got but if your here to be a u kno what then why dont u explain what kind of tank setups u guys got and see how it feels to criticize your lil 10 gallon!

But i already kno u aint gonna tell what kind of fish u got so why dont u guys just back off if ur not going to help......im here for advice not to argure

Just because i hear your advice dosent mean i have to take it.

lets refrain from name calling and personal attacks.
Large_cichlids, please refrain from redundant posts and consider the advice given to you. You're getting good advice, you're just not taking it. Dont take offence when someone who cares about fish tries to give you the know how to make yours happier.

That said I would go ahead and just get a 55 now to use as a cichlid growout, or even perm. housing for some.

I don't know specifically what people have that are giving you advice but I am seriously doubting that they have 1o gallons. Rallys has enought tanks to fill up my freaking house. And I have kept fish for almost as long as you are old. And I know I don't know everything and would never call somebody out on here like you are. Most of the people on here know 10 times as much as I do and I know you need to just calm down get a couple 75's or 55's and just grow them out and not buy anymore unless you get rid of some. Just calm down and listen to the people on this forum. Until you buy larger tanks nobody is going to stop telling you to buy one. You posted so many times about your tank sizes that now everyone knows what you have. Just try not to take it personally they are trying to help the fish you are buying.
