Sophia Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 full tank shot please! I used to have a fighter in those colours :cophot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binklebonk Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 This is my tank it's only 29l so nothing compared to the amazing ones on here but it gives me hours of peace just watching the inhabitants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFishing Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Nothing wrong with that tank. Nice clear water that's for sure. Looks great. :cophot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Make sure the current from the filter is not too strong. Fighters like calmer water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanityChelle Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 You tank looks lovely! It's very sweet with the teacups and the wicker behind it. How big is it, and what else do you have in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binklebonk Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 I have turned down the pump flow to the lowest it will go but I still think I might need to buffer the flow somehow. Though he seems to like playing in the outflow water LOL! It's 29L with an inbuilt sump that houses the heater and filter etc. The wicker is just stuck on the back (friends worried it would rot, they'd assumed I'd put it IN the water). There is 6 black phantom tetras in there and one poor otcinclus. I got the wrong advice at the pet shop when I bought the Oto and I learned now that they need friends but I have no room for more fishies!

Discusguru Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Adding a few more otos in there won't take up much space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binklebonk Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 True - they stay fairly small. But it's only 29l, apparently I'm 'overstocked' as it is (Don't worry though, I'm keeping it very clean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 If everyone follow the so call rules for keeping and stocking fish you will need an ocean :facepalm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binklebonk Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 LOL very true. I might get one or two more and just keep an eye on the water quality. At least it's not cruel to rehome fish like it can be for other animals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyay Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 It's overstocked but two more otos shouldn't add much more bioload just keep it clean and you should be all good - better to do an extra water change than to have a sad lone oto!
