Great to have another discus fan on here
-
Great news Casey! Hope you get a batch of nice frys from them.
Ron
they are still a young pair so i will have to wait, may end up having to get rid of them cos they are beatting up the others
-
so yeah great news, the super red maps have been in there all of 4 days and they have paired up and decided to clean the back glass of the tank, so may have to remove them, as they are bullying the rest
-
Yeah I'm pretty much finished stocking
-
just put them in, wait till later on and if they come out i will
-
ok so just got back from pupuke aquarium and have a few new additions 3 new blue diamond discus , and 3 beatiful blue rams
-
Beautiful plant growth
+1 !drool:
Thanks , but I still haven't finished scaping the tank so I didn't put all the plants in yet
-
one tetra
That's guna over stock the tank :lol:
-
Stunning. Love the harlequins !
How long until we see those numbers increase dramatically ? :spop:
Everytime I go hunting harlequins, I either find none or they're in short supply, therefore unusually expensive
well for the moment i wana add some other fish but maybe later on this year ill add another 40
-
Great minds ...
I'm only at 30 in my 3ft - by far my favourite shoaling fish.
i have 90 in my 4ft, still thinking of adding more, when you get this many they are amazing in there shoals
-
600 harlequin rasboras
hey thats my idea, dont steal it, im at 90
-
yes, its hard to get a nice pic of the whole shoal, but in person its amazing
-
so discus decided they were happy, so heres some pics
-
anyone wana join me im bored and keen to discuss fish :cofn:
-
sorry guys no pics tonight , jut added the discus so im trying to leave the tank allone while the settle in,but on a side note i fould one of my juvi long finned bristlenose had be attacked, im thinking its the larger male who did it, but the strange this is that it was only one of the juvis the rest are fine, so im thinking that the one that was attacked was a young male and the rest a juvinile females?
thoughs please

:spop: Can't wait to see the photos!~
I heard you had a bit of a disaster in the fish room at work this morning :lol:
Poor Laura had to come get our wet vac

-

-

so this is my upgraded 4ft, same stand, differnt tank, the tank is 122cm long X 45cm wide X 60cm deep, i changed it over because this way i can have a deeper substrate and it suits my new discus anyway the specs are as followed
lighting: 1 twin 4ft T5HO with 54w 6500k bulbs, and 1 4ft single T8 with a 40w powerglo in it. ( i have timers for the light but im new to this depth of tank so help would be appricated, also have a spare 4ft twin T5HO fitting if you guys think it is necessary)
Filtration: eheim 2213, fluval 305
heater: aqua one 300watt, think bout switching to a jager 300watt tho
substrate: daltons aquatic mix, about a 3cm layer, covered buy fine black gravel, which has been mixed with some orange flecks to give some color
CO2: I have a proper system with 7.5kg bottle, just needs filling and setting up
Ferts: none at the moment,was using valrays( trademe) ferts but was to much hassle dosing every day, thinking of just using flourish comprehensive
Plants: ambulia,stargrass,sunset hygrophila, green hygrophila,red rotala, water sprite, red macandra,valasaneria , narrow leaf java fern, windelov java fern ,amazon swords, borno sword?,green barcalya, xmas moss, and a crypt of some sort
Fish: 90 harliquins , 3 super red map discus ( stunners thanks to ron), agazzi 3m/1 f, 2 female triple red cockatoos ( guna get a super red male), 4 blackline flying foxes, assorted cories ( will post when i have decided what ones to put in) breeding pair of long finned bristlenose plus about 7 junvniles. Think about getting 4 lancilot whiptails.
advice?

Ok so I've switched tanks now to my deeper tank, have made a thread under members tanks, so just waiting for it to be approved,but you will like it I hope
-
Man I'm lucky that my boyfriend is just as fish obsessed as I am :sml1: :lol:
you may want to mention its josh
-
yeah i had a few pairs breeding when i was doing discus and they were 7 and still going strong
-
IMO I think you need to build up and take advantage of your depth? Maybe some taller wood plantedwith java fern , just an idea, that way you don't have an open top part
