That's looking good, you'll need to keep us updated with the plant growth I love the black sand :bounce: -
they are so cool. What size are those ones smidey?
-
Hmm I would have to ask hubby first on the clowns - the african tanks are his :roll: not sure if he'll want them in there :lol: and the discus tanks are mine So are small clown loaches good at eating snails, I mainly have the trumpet snails which range in size from tiny babies to fully sized
-
We have several tanks so homing them when bigger is not a problem - our biggest tank is 1800 x 600 x 600 - it's wheather they'll live with african cichlids My biggest discus tank is 3 foot x 2 foot x 2 foot
-
Hmm thats proberly why I have so many, breeding in my nice overly warm discus tanks :-? If you'd like to pm me your address - if i get a chance and don't manage to get some loaches then I will be more than happy to send you some
-
Awesome guys, thanks Oh my the dwarf loaches are cute - how much are they usually to buy at LFS? says they need to be a groups of at least 5+ I do like the clown loaches, but they'll grow abit to big for my discus tank
-
So I've done a quick google search, and it says the yoyo loach is a good snail eater!! I'll wait for more advice from you wise peoples before deciding
-
I got a kuhli loach yesterday - will he do the trick?
-
OK i have like a zillion snails, malysian trumpet snails and also tiny litte ones that i'm not sure of and I am sooo over them - I WANT THEM GONE!!!!! So what is the best fish to elimanate these pests!! Fish in questions must: 1. be ok in high temps, ie: discus tank 2. NOT eat plants 3. easy fish to get, ie: readilly available at LFS and cheap 4. must get on with my other fish 5. would be good, but no big deal - like eating algae Many thanks in advance
-
LOL - really!! :lol:
