im pretty new to fighters, here is my 100L community tank. so far so good as my male is not very dominant, i have a funny feeling the longer finned cambo 'female' is actually a male. Male was sold as a red/platinum HM but he has a fair bit of fin damage as i have moved house a couple times recently, females are VTs i believe.

After getting sick of the colour of my water i made my oscar tank bare bottom, its awesome to keep clean. i have recently added a second filter and now there isnt even a single bit of crud on the bottom after 2 weeks running. tanks been bare bottom for like 6 months and if anything the fish are happier as the water quality is better. Even in my new community fighter/guppy tank im only running a very fine layer of gravel- maybe half the usual amount. lets just say im convinced.

yeah my male is a small community with 6 guppies, 2 loaches and 2 whiptails. he is only young but still the boss at feeding time

very keen on one of those awesome fish

chilli bin my oscar smashed my 4foot with a rock a few months back- 10mins before i was leaving for work. what a mish. he was in time out in the chilli for a week with a 50w heater

yeah im pretty keen to try it but want to wait till everyone else has sorted all the problems out for me :lol:

old glass is brittle and will break easily, its also pretty hard to cut small strips off (ie 50mm or less). Put it on a table with a towel or somethin under it and score along a straight edge pushing until you can feel it scoring/grinding then hold the offcut piece over the edge of the table and give it a firm push. should just go "tink" and break off, if its not scored well it will break funny tho. IME the best cutters are the type with a tiny wheel on the end.

nice ghost dont see big ones too often

more severums/ other fish to spread the harrassment around?

cant see it being a problem, loaches are pretty fast an prefer to feed at night anyway

i spotted some pretty nice ones in rotorua too. at the shop on the way to paradise valley. im not sure of chassis numbers but they seemed well priced :lol: . some of the ones with the tiny white/blueish spots and various yellow/green strains. nice shop and well worth a look.

hell yeah
