beeko Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Im 24 male living in Auckland, just started my tank up in December. Its a 110l tank, holding at present a m & F pink kissing fish, 1 black shark, 10 black dainios, m & f Kribs, 2 flying foxes, 2 brisslenoses, 1 colbalt blue gourami, and 2 yellow sucker fish not sure what they are called, alos to female platies. I have had trouble keeping alive male platies, and also just had a lot of deaths with angels, and my gourmi's. Feel free to add my msn or yahoo to yours, and we canchat. :roll: :-?

Caryl Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 Hi beeko and welcome to the fish room. How long has your tank been set up? I am not sure what size a 110L tank is (never good at working it out) but I wonder if you have been adding too many fish too quickly without gining the tank time to 'cycle'.

MGilchrist Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 welcome to the fishroom beeko, if you want to chat come along at 9pm most nights and join our chatroom (click on link at top of page) there is usually a group in there about then. How long has your tank been setup, do you test the water, are you still having deaths, do you have plants, what sort of filtration do you have?? lots of questions, but its always good to find a cause for deaths in the tank also as caryl asked, what size tank, length width and height. mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegasus Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Hi Beeko, Welcome to the forum. You have to think 'future'.. when thinking of fish, in other words, not the size they are now, but what size they will be a few months down the track. Usually tank stock limits can be worked out by using the adult size in preference to the shop bought size. Overstocking can stunt growth, plus cause major probs.

Alan Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Tell ya what Beeko, you are lucky to have a pair. Kissers are nortoriously hard to sex, even in adult form, an expert eye is needed. So we'll say you have two kissers. Did you know that they can get to !2" long and are used as food fish. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
