Started doing joint Aquarium co-op orders with coworkers for supply.  Figure lets save money on shipping and start doing monthly orders together for supplies.  

so cool that you have coworkers that are into fishkeeping and that you guys order stuff together like that!!!

[discus stocking and tank mates]

 but maybe i could do like 1 center pieces discus ?

[discus stocking and tank mates]

I think that would be true in most cases but I am doing a heavily planted aquarium with 10 to 20 % water changes twice a week with a scape that will  have lot of open swimming room  

[What did you get done today?]

trimmed up my tank and pulled some val.

I could barely even see into it before I trimmed it up😅

[discus stocking and tank mates]

I am planning on setting up a high tech 40 gallon breeder pretty soon and was just wondering how many discus I could put in there comfortably. I was thinking 2-3 because I do not want to get a really big bio-load. also I was thinking maybe some rummy nose and German blue rams. 

[Co-OP plants with snails]

count your blessings! it can kind of get gross when you have a hundreds of snails in a 10 gallon tank

[Co-OP plants with snails]

i think "pest" snails are great! although try to control the population or they might take over the tank

[hello from cool place]

[hello from cool place]

[how many angelfish in 55 gallon tank]

I have a community 55 gallon tank that a want to switch over to a breeding tank.  I was thinking about breeding angelfish, bristle nose pleco, and maybe some guppy's. if you guys have any other ideas let me know, and how many angelfish should I get?

[Hello from Utah]

Utah is the best!!!! always like hearing about fish keepers that also live in utah😁

 

[hello from cool place]

the cool place is Utah by the way, and I cant wait to do more on this form. I have 4 tanks right now and going to get another one pretty soon!  I am 14 and have been in the hobby for 2 years, which I think is pretty good! my goal is to one day have a fishroom and make it a part time/ hobby that might break even 😂

[white cloud minnows bloating]

so 2 nights ago my one of my white clouds looked super bloated, I have over fed a little bit lately but I do not know if that would cause it. I thought maybe it could be pregnant but I have never breed white clouds so am not sure, have any of you dealt with something like this?
