Yeah this is their first one and I’ve been raising them since they were small
-

2 Angels
20 Black Neon Tetras
15 X-ray Tetras

Tried to introduced 10 of 30 Cherry Barbs to my established 90 gallon community tank with 2 large angelfish, 20 black neons, 15 X-ray tetras, 10 peppered Cory Cats, and several BN plecos...
My thought was with 10 they would school together and hold their own.
What really happened was there weren’t enough of them and they scattered as soon as they hit the tank... I can only assume since I feed a lot of red food (Xterme Krill and Hikari Vibra Bites) and their size the Angels started going after them one at a time and even the larger tetras did as well...
The lesson is to only introduce bigger community fish and in larger schools as the Angels and the Tank are so big...

Yeah black and white fish are on purpose, silver tip tetras are hard to find in my area but I agree that would be another good schooling fish to add
-
What do you think 4 max? I worry about long term aggression with each other.

I have a 90 gallon with tons of filtration (2 AC 110 and 2 XL sponge filters)
stocking
20 black neons
10 peppered Cory cats
2 LG Angelfish
2 BN pelcos (breeding pair)
what would you add?? Open to all ideas
-
Yeah I see that, I wonder if it’s better on the fish as I have the light on a timer at 3pm to 11pm but maybe at 9pm switch to blue
-
Here is a question for the pros...
what is the purpose of the blue only light on my led lights for my tanks? They all have them but not sure when or why to use them... planted 90 gallon community tank with 4 black mollies, 20 black neon tetras, 2 black angels, 10 peppered cory’s, 2 black spotted bristlenose plecos + fry...
should I ever use the blue light or no?

Will be out of town for 6 days. I have a 30 gallon community tank with about 18 fish (neons, guppies, pelcos, etc..)
I don’t want to use a feeder block, what do y’all think a great automatic feeder option is?
Thoughts on the Ani Mate Fish Feeder?
-
Does a usb air pump have enough power to work the xl sponge filter? Plan on using 2 xl in my 90 gallon but should I use the USB pumps or should I just buy one larger air pump for both?
-
True that the only thing I worry about with two 110’s is that it might create to much current in the tank
-
Maybe the aquaclears in the 2/5 and 4/5 of the tank and sponge filter in the corner... should I get one or two?
-
Yeah I can’t decide if I put the aquaclears on each end and a sponge filter in the middle... in this case it would be the 50’s. If I go with the 110 then I’ll put it in the middle and have 2 sponge filters on the ends. The price is the same for one 110 or 2 50’s
-
Getting ready to set up a brand new 90 gallon community tank... lots of smaller fish and plants. Should I go with 2 aquaclear 50’s or one 110? Also plan on at least one sponge filter... maybe 2. Thoughts?
-
Have a pre filter sponge on my HOB, the last fry have been in the tank for about 3 weeks and 2 are left probably because of my gourami... I’m thinking of putting her in a breeder box to let the fry drop and not get eaten... I don’t want to put her in there that long.. is she close to giving birth?
-
Can she be pregnant from 3 months ago?
-
Ok so we had fry and they are starting to look orange after a few weeks... now this platy looks pregnant and I’m assuming the black dots are eyes and her belly is getting square... is she pregnant and how long until she lets them out? Also fun fact I’ve had these guys for 3 months and honestly they both look like females.... life finds a way
-
Honestly I’m a big fan of lots of small fish... I’d rather have 60 small fish vs 10 big ones

Hey Nerms,
Scored (2) 90 gallon brand new tanks off Facebook marketplace... Need to build them now but starting with one
Look for the best shopping list through Aquarium Co-Op... Here is what i got so far for the first tank
2x usb air pumps
2x large sponge filters
2x no clog air stones
25ft tubing
Filter Media
Pre-filter sponges
3x plant holders
2x amazon sward
Question, would yall change anything above? am I missing anything?
I am going to need other items I cant get from the Co-Op like substrate (Black gravel), going with two HOB filters that honestly I will probably hot rod( I don't want a canister filter), and I have lights already. Have chemicals but thinking I might order the fritz products to help start...thoughts?

Scored on Facebook two brand new 90 gallon tanks. I plan on heavy stocking community on one and an African Cichlids in the other. Community tank will be planted and Cichlids hardscape. Will be using the XL sponge filters with usb nano pumps, 2 per tank. My question is would you go with two aquaclear 30-50 gallon filters or one aquaclear 110 filter?? Or would each tank be different??
Angels just laid a bunch of eggs… what should I do next?

They laid this (their second time) in the last 24-48 hours. What should be my next move? The piece can be removed easily, should I grab a currently used sponge filter and place it in a new 20 long?
