Well I guess I’m just used to them around other fish then, they seem so odd on their own…. so peaceful, LOL. The tank definitely needs more plants, but I wiped the LFS out of plants while I was out there yesterday just so I could put some fast growers in until […]

How is it too far? Were you looking for someone within driving distance? Over night shipping with fed ex is really overnight (even in Alaska).

Earthworms don’t come out much here, I could find lots of slugs though, LOL. I was thinking of maybe small crickets? Or do worms appear tastier to fish? LOL I can’t remember the kind of worms I bought for my oscars it was ages ago. It’s right on the tip of my fingers […]

I was just concerned that their uneaten food will be an issue. I didn’t want to add snails, but I wanted some sort of bottom feeder that was protected enough from their nipping. (it’s not pleasant heh). I haven’t been overfeeding them very much but they don’t seem as hungry, perhaps […]

The plecos prefer the soft green algae. I have bristlenose that take care of the glass pretty well.
I also have zebra nerite snails.they are new so not sure if they are eating the black beard algae or not, but they appear to be in at least one tank. They reproduce only in brackish water […]

My pH is 7.8 and I have lots of black beard algae. I think its the SAE that eats black beard algae, and you will probably have to order them. They like to be in groups and in a large tank, a 55G should be OK.
Im using my vallisneria to out-compete […]

These Rams http://www.aquatic-hobbyist.com/profiles/freshwater/cichlids/bram.html should grow to around 4″ which kind of makes them not suitable for a 10G tank. Most profiles/care sheets recommend at least a 20G tank for this species. It’s best to keep fish that stay under 3″ in 10G tanks so this Ram is only a little over the limit […]

A Pleco comes to mind. Preferably one of the dwarf species so it’s not as much burden on the bioload. A Bristle Nosed or Clown Pleco both stay under 5″. They are both “armored” catfish so they are at least designed to tolerate a little abuse and ward it off with their […]

They don’t have the CAE’s here in town, I would have to order them. Do Otto’s eat this algae? I doubt it. I figured raising the KH, GH and pH would help get rid of it, as it prefers low pH water (6 or less apparently). Oh and the lights are on for 8 […]
