Red Shiners

[fishman256]

Hello,

Now that my goldfish have passed away of old age, I have setup my aquarium again. I have decided to keep red shiners My last test showed almost nil nitrate and ammonia. I will test the water again tomorrow night and if the tests are nil I will be gong to the aquatics store on Saturday morning Pics will be posted

The tank is a 48"x12"x15" and filtered by one of the new fluval internal filters.

yeah that's the sad thing if it were easier to ship to and the laws were known Im sure Jonahs, Sachs, Zimmermans and BTdarters would do well,butIts hard to tell in Europe who can have what.....kind of like our states they have different laws for fish in Scotland than in England.

I have seen some at a lfs I have introduced 5 zebra danios as advised at the store that the shiners are not hardy fish, but I will introduce them in the coming weeks

so your tank has not been running? or you've torn it all down and cleaned it? you probably killed off your bacteria and will need to re-cycle the tank again before adding fish.

The tank had been cleaned a fully cycled. The new introductions are doing well
