what fishes to remove

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
IMO it's all trial and error. Some fish might be fine in my tank and kill each other in yours. If you really weant to know you're just gonna have to wait and see. You should search some of HKNs threads the fish and turtles and things in those tanks have no business getting along but they do. If a fish starts causing trouble get rid of it.

Kinda silly for him to buy a 180 which he doesn't have yet, when he could just go with a 225g(72x30x24") which is 6" wider and would do the jar for life.


Yes it is silly and the bigger and wider the better but that's up to the OP's finances to decide. A 180 is a standard size tank and are cheap to pick up brand new from LFS but the wider you go then it's not standard and the cost difference is quite a difference. For price difference I could get a brand new 180gallon tank with stand and lid for 475.00 CAD but for the flat down 225g it's about 1000.00 CAD with stand and lid.

Exactly, so why spend the money on the tank that eventually may not work?

If it was me I would go for the 180g and grow the aro in it for 2 years or as long as it can before upgrading to the larger tank cuz then when the time comes for upgrading I would have an extra 180gallon tank for more fish:D

That is a good plan too:thumbsup:

Wow brian for once we actually agree on something together instead of the usual wars:headbang2

No I believe we agreed before, the difference this time is you are not calling me an ***hole. :p
 
in this case, it didnt. i removed the maganese and the wolf, and replaced with the silver aro, but to no uck, the silver aro couldnt hold its own. sadly not even 3 hours in the tank, and it passed.
