Ok... my mother was out of town and stopped by PetSmart since the closest one to us is 70 miles away. Mind you, I didn't know this until she handed me a bag full of smaller bags with 6 kuhli loaches and 2 of what I believe to be senegal bichirs (receipt says dinosaur bichir).
She figured that since I have 7 tanks running, I could just put them in the 55 gallon I'm cycling for some Koi Angelfish. That's not gonna happen. (The angels are tiny still and were given to me by my grandfather the day he passed away recently. I refuse to keep anything that could eat them in their tank.)
I've since explained to her that fish are not bubblegum and must be planned out. The kuhlis are in my angel tank because I wanted some anyway.
My question is, for the time being, what do I do? I can't take them back and she wants to keep them.
I have a 46 euro with 7 giant danio, a 45 tall with 3 skunk loach and a pink gourami, a 55 gallon with 7 bluegill, 2 3inch bullheads, and a red crayfish, a 30 gallon hex full of mystery snails, a 20 gallon with small black convicts (growing out) and a 10 gallon with the small angels and a few snails (also growing out until they go in the other 55 gal with kuhlis)
What should I move around? What habitat do I need, and is anything I have listed compatible? I can't move the skunk loaches to the tank with kuhlis since they've systematically hunted past kuhlis. I don't want the skunks eaten, because I've had them 6 years already.
Help?
