Yeah i'm also putting cycled sponges along with the gravel into the new filter. Just wanted to make sure the material the panty hose is made of wouldnt leach something harmful into the water

I'm gonna seed my new fitler by putting gravel from established tank into panty hose to put in the new filter. I'm just wondering if the panty hose will harm fish. Its a brand new pair of panty hose. thanks for any help

I understand. Another question has only ordered africans cichlids from aquarium fish depot? Are they a reputable store to order from or should i stay away?

I normally wait til the day im gonna put the fish in to switch ky cycled filters to the new tank. Should i switch the filters and filter media to the new tank sooner?

Yeah i just don't want to overwhelm the beneficial bacteria i normally only at 6 fish at a time but this is my first time doing africans and people say either do one group at a time or add all at once. I'm just trying to figure out if 16 is too much to add at once even with them being juveniles. And of course i can feed them one day them skip a day or two for a few weeks as not to have an ammonia spike.

So my goal is to have 8 yellow labs and 8 yellow tail acei. I'm gonna order them as 1.5 inch juveniles. If i order them all at once i'm gonna get a better deal on them. Is it possible to add 16 juveniles to a new tank all at once? I have media for the new filters that will be going on the 75g in my filters on my 125g. I also have 3 cycled sponge filters and i have a bottle of fritz zyme bottled bacteria. Can this be done or should i just add one group at a time? Worst come to worst i have a 40 breeder that i use as my quarantine tank i can put one group in there and one group to the 75g and wait a couple weeks til i add the fish from the 40 breeder. On corys video he said he adds a lot of fish at one time so just trying to figure out if this is a good or horrible idea. Thanks for any feedback

Ok thanks

i'm setting up a new tank and im gonna use a couple filters from a cycled tank to cycle it. Should i put the cycled filters on the new tank a week before i'm gonna put the new fish in or like the day before? I dont want to put the cycled filters on the new tank too soon and all the bacteria just die off.

Ok thanks so much

Do you feed bug bites cichlid formula?

I ordered northfin veggie formula is this what i should mostly be feeding them? Can i feed them frozen brine with spirulina once a week?

What are some good foods to feed yellow labs? Please be specific. Thanks for any help.

Yeah it just seemed like people would use crushed coral or aragonite even if their water was already suitable for africans. So i was just wondering.

I'm starting a 75 gallon mbuna tank. My ph is 8.0-8.2, gh 14-15, kh 8-9. Would adding crushed coral be a good or bad thing for the african cichlids? Or am i better off just leaving it alone? Thanks for any feedback.

thanks 🙂

Done the best i could his color is faded cause i got him out of his cave to take a picture he normally has dark stripes going horizontally across his body and the rest of him is that tan color

Looks like a clown pleco to me but idk

This was sold to me as a rubber lip but it defenitely doesnt look like a rubber lip to me. Any thoughts?

Ok thanks everyone!! 🙂

Ok thanks so much

Im thinking of getting a heater controller for my aquarium. Any recommendations on the best ones to buy would help me out a lot. Thanks for any replys.

thanks for the replys. My angelfish likes to eat as well. Im gonna give it a shot i just ordered the rainbows wish me luck lol

I agree with Jeff. Aqua clear filters will be what your looking for.

Keep it stable. Dont use any ph down or any products like that. You could add some driftwood if you dont already have some that will lower your ph a little bit. Its always better to keep your ph stable rather than trying to chase the perfect ph. My ph is 8.2 and i keep all the common community fish like you have listed with no problems. Just keep it stable and the fish will adapt to it and be just fine.
