Oscars
It should be fine. Depends on the personality of the oscar - I've had small bottom feeding fish (8cmish) in with oscars before and things have been fine.

Algae eater vs goldfish?
Golden algae eaters are just the albino form of the Chinese algae eaters. Both kinds like to attack other fish.

HELP Nitrate Levels Sky High
Try testing your tap water, it might have a high level of nitrates in it.

Some people!
Yeah but noone could have really taken me seriously when I said "The secret [to breeding your fish] is to create as many topics on internet forums as possible about whatever flashes into your mind at the moment of posting, even if the information you are requesting is only a google search away."

Some people!
Yeah, it's called sarcasm, it's obviously a little too subtle for some. Don't give it another thought.

Posting pictures
It's just copying and pasting really, copy the URL of the image and paste it inbetween some img tags. Takes a good 10 seconds.

You realise I was kidding though, right? A joke? Like hahah get a sense of humor?
-
How do you strain your brine shrimp?
I usually just siphon them off using the hose from the bottle. A little salt never hurt anything.

Convict cichlids
Try taking the male out for a few days then add him to the tank again (keep him in another tank in the meanwhile though!), you may find they get down quite soon after that.

urgent help needed
Agasizzi aren't always peaceful. I had two males in a 4ft tank and they harrassed everything - a breeding pair of full size Angels, my clown loaches (killed one of them), siamese fighters and my school of 21 cardinal tetras.
-
Yay!! New Tank! but what to put in it???
A good alternative to neons is the Cardinal Tetra. They're bigger than the neon so Angels can't eat them and they're more colourful too.

Some people!
I myself was moved to tears by such a touching post. Group hug everyone.

Mosquito fish need death
Well yes, but there will always be some that go into reeds or whatever where the bigger ones couldn't reach, which is where the smaller ones will come in handy.

how do i breed my fish...
And what's that supposed to mean, Nickyboi? 'People like me'. I was kidding, it was a joke. You don't need to be so inflammatory.
-
Convict cichlids
It's just preparing a place to lay it's eggs.
-
Mosquito fish need death
Smaller oscars work too, they're quicker and can fit into smaller places. A combination would work well 8)

Just saying Hi....
Having multipule females with a male is fine Alex, what you've been told is correct.

scoria as media
Why not, Discusguru? It's extremely porus. My local pet shop uses it in their CFS, it does the job well

scoria as media
Yeah. Why couldn't you?

Golden Algae eaters
Golden Algae Eaters are Chinese Algae Eaters. Get some Golden ancistrus instead if you like the colour
-
Golden Algae eaters
I've had mine kill corydoras and each other before. Don't trust them with small fish, I put mine in with some oscars and it straightened up.
-
Last time I bother with pictures
Just exchange the tag with the tag if the image is too big, I really wouldn't have thought it would be this much of an issue!

Bristlenose or Pleco?
Niloc has a huge bristlenose, not sure of the exact measurement of it but it's definately over 10cm if not 15.
