That’s a bummer. From the looks of it, I’m thinking it could be a female just because of it having more of a green coloration. Their tank mates look awesome btw! Don’t think I’ve seen those before.

Thanks for the help! It does look very similar to the first picture. Hope that’s what it is, flag fish look awesome all colored up!🍻

Just bubbles. This is the only fish that was in the tank.

Here’s another picture.

Hello all! I order some plants online about a month or so ago and after a week or two, I found this little guy swimming around. Just want help identifying it so I know what to do with it. Thanks in advance!

Why those two over ceramic?

Hello all! I know there have been conversations about this on the forum before, but I haven’t found anything that talks to the comparison of different heating types for a fish room. I’m just about finished building my first fish room. (will post pics when 100% completed) I’ve been trying to decide which type of heat source to use for the room instead of heating each tank individually. Did a cost comparison after running out of outlets😂. I decided to go with a 1000 watt ceramic heater with built in fan, thermostat, and all the bells and whistles. But am starting to second guess myself on if I made the best choice. I’m trying to find out which is the better choice between oil, ceramic, and infrared heating elements. Which is safest, more efficient, least maintenance, which will evaporate the least amount of water, etc.
