Rewcolee1 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Hi all. I’ve been keeping fish/aquariums for 30+ years. Clearly I’m new to the forum as I stumbled onto the Co-Op videos a few months back on YouTube. I’ve now purchased plants and switched to the Co-Op fertilizer. My current main tank is a 75 gallon with a Fluval AquaSky 2.0 and Fluval 407 filter. I’ve recently have been trying my hand at live plants for the 1st time I think it is going OK. I’m looking forward to having some good conversations on here, but more importantly learning some new stuff. Like most things in life this “hobby” is a never ending learning curve. Which is amazing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewcolee1 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) 2 golden rams— 4 angel fish— 2 gold sevrums— 4 head & tail light tetras— 2 ”kissing” gouramis 10 neon, 5 cardinal, 5 gold tetras— 8 Cory’s—- 2 gold nugget pleco’s— 1 spotted and 1 striped Raphael —oh and 3 silver dollars, which I’ve learned are horrible for planted tanks, but are 10yrs old along with the Raphael’s so I’ll have to live with it.

Rewcolee1 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 I had the neons and other smaller fish established before I purchased the Sevrum’s. I’ve had success in doing this over the years that way the bigger fish maybe won’t see the smaller fish as food?.🤷🏼♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schuyler Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Welcome! I actually just learned about kissing gourami and how their "kissing" is actually males sparring for dominance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neitherman Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Your tank and stand look like that Marineland kit at Petsmart I've been eyeing with envy since I first saw it. Great looking tank, I love the giant crypts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great looking tank, I love the giant crypts! Yep, that’s where I purchased it 2yrs ago. I was just in there the other day. They are saying it’s “on sale” for $699. 🤣 I got it for $300 and thought it was a steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
