realy?! are you sure it is a true archer fish? my LPS may have been telling me lies.

no no no, do not do a gravel siphion, I don't do a gravel siphion no more then once a month, just changing the water will be fine, if you do to many siphons then your breaking down. I remember when my pleco was doing that, and it was becuase my heater cracked and stoped working, whats your temperature in the tank? Also the pleco may not be geting enough nutriants, try throwing some cucumber in the tank, and if you can find a peice of driftwood I would throw that in thier as well, plecos will eat that stuff like icecream. If none of those things work, then take a water sample and post it here. they only get moldy like that then they are really stressed out, its just some kind of reaction to stress. If all of your water prams are ok then I would go ahead and asume it has a sickness, It might me a fungus so I would treat it with some aquarium salt, a little higher temperatures and add just a little melafix and see if hye gets any better.

I went to the petsore

simple, first buy some plants that taste really bad, like java moss and ferm, micro swords, and blotinica. then make sure you put about 3 slices of cucomber in the tank each day, this will make them want to eat the cucumber more than the nasty tasting plants.

its ick, common problem with rams since the get stressed real easy. throw in some aquarium salt and raise the temperature, that should get rid of them all. but the only way to cure ick for good is toe find out what he is geting stressed out from, do a water test and post it here.

it depends, thier are some really really good ones that have the most rarest fish you can find, and thier are some that are just down right awfull, you have got to search. The one I go to one that has a real big book of diffrent fish species, all I do is write down what fish I want, then give him a 10 doller down payment and in 2-3 weeks I have my fish.

heh, wait thats not my biggest fish, I also have a 10inch pleco
-
9 inch albino oscar

these are my favorit fish, but LPS refuse to stock them becuase they are one of the most difficult fish to keep, I was trying to get my hands on one of these guys for the longest time, but my LPS said that they did not even want to risk flying it over becuase of the cost. I asked him how much he was willing to sell one for and he said about 160 dollers
:evil: -
Lowering it will just stress them out. Yes agressive behavoir will drop down, but only becuase the fish are to pre ocupied by trying to keep warm, if it is only like a couple of degrees then I pretty sure you will not see any results.

Hey guys, just thought I would stop by and say hi.
I will start off by telling you guys what I have.
*75 gallon tank*
1 albino oscar
1 tiger oscar
*breeding pair*
1 common pleco
the oscars have been together thier intire lifes
*55 gallon tank*
I am in the process of converting it into a african setup, before It had breeding pairs of gold and blue rams, and other assorted fish.
10 gallon brackish tank*
this tank holds my pride and joy, my little figure 8 puffer fish.
this little bugger has so much personality. I have to keep the watter a little low becuase he like to jump out of the water when someone walks in the room
I have pics, but please note that the tanks look nothing like they do now, except for the comunity tank.
So how did you get hooked.

I walked in to get a hamster, and i walked out with 2 babys O and a 29 gallon tank, then I walked back in a few months later when I realized how freakin big they get, and I walked out with a 55 gallon.
