Wanna get my Grandpa a big tank :)

[Lukee]

i was thinking 5 foot or 6 foot.
just write down everything you would buy . eg gravel.. fish.. filter..
no price limit
he wouldnt care...
i was hoping some big fish..
but i would like a jardini-to small?
maybe one of those shovel nose guys..
maybe a oscar..
loots of choice..
but not chichlids..
would what you get!?

 

[santoury]

You say OK to Oscars, but no to Cichlids.... Make up your mind Oscars are Cichlids.

 

[Lukee]

i mean with the ph...
like i dont want to put ph up everytime i w/c...

 

[santoury]

Luke, do you mean African Cichlids, that need high PH? Is that what you're talking about?

If so, there are many South American / Central American Cichlids that you don't need to change the pH for.

 

[Lukee]

yeah...
but i dont really like any chichlids apart from oscars anyway..
got any ideas??

 

[Mystix212]

Cichlis are the best. They interact with you, you can hand feed, them great colours, lots of spunk etc. Or would you prefer a shoal of tetras?

 

[arkmann]

Does he really like to have a fish tank? (Not trying to be an arse)

 

[Lukee]

this is getting nowhere..

 

[Mystix212]

Does he want a fish tank that he can maintain so you dont have to be there all the time. Then again, you dont want a Dovii chewing off his fingers.

 

[Lukee]

yeah he doesnt have much to do... so he would clean it out well...
and they would stare like the whole day..
