Unhealthy green terror

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The growth rate isnt something that can be answered in a straightforward manner. Nutrition, water quality, low stress, and genetics all play a role. If the suction cups came stick with the divider for at least a month. Stop messing with the fish so much. Other than water changes or adding/removing decorations there's no reason to be digging around the tank.
 
Hey guys
Do you know how to make my green terror more frank to me ?.Cuz I see many cichlids following the finger of the owner and eating food from their hand.
See Zanzag's post above about not messing with them so much. You can't expect them to calm down around you while you're moving them in and out of buckets and boxes or constantly messing with the tank. It's one reason I recommended a divider several pages ago.
 
Thank you ☺️
I will not touch the tank except water changes and cleaning filter I got rid of parrots and red jewels I will rethink my tank a little but for now no interference.

No not the safest by any means. A Texas of any sort is gonna be mean.
Good tank mates would be large peaceful non territorial fish. Plecos, big tetra, larger barbs like gold barbs, the list is pretty big with you having a 125

Are there any good common cichlid for my tank? cuz sometimes she spook tinfoils so they bump on things and lose their scale.Will there scales regrow ?
 
Yeah scales regrow. Tinfoil barbs are bigger than I'd want in a 125 but not my tank. Honestly adding other cichlids will most likely cause fights
 
Thanks ?,I will rehome them in my friend's tank after they get big.So is there any fish except catfish and plecs? cuz i want something that roams in whole tank in budget.
 
Gold barbs are a good choice I believe. Fast, hardy, and cheap just in case one occasionally gets taken out. Also get about 5"
