I'd love to have a massive South American Wild Type tank. 500+ gallons the bigger the better. Nothing that has been bred for a trait. Either wild caught or tank raised whatever I can get my hands on. Altum Angels, corydoras, tetras, discus, you name it. Not sure which all species specifically...

Is the filter waterfalling into the tank or sending it across the surface. I have that filter in a 10 gallon and it's totally fine for me. If you do think it's too much you can always baffle it. Edit: my apologizes glazed right over tank size in the title

It doesn't sound like your tank is cycled. Please read up on the nitrogen cycle. It should be hyperlinked to that. So first thing is you need to cycle your tank. 50% daily water changes. You need a test kit to check your water parameters if you don't have one already. If you do please post your...

My heart and blood pressure did not appreciate that game. But man that was fun to watch neither team gave up in the slightest.

Tarpon don't have big teeth it's like sandpaper. But their head is like a giant cinder block if that hits ya you're in serious trouble. Have fun in the keys Stargirl! Very jealous

You could do one or two. Ornate rainbow gobies are absolutely gorgeous. Annie's goby is very colorful but also very small. Don't know much about them. Blue neon goby. Flaming arrow goby. If you go to the wetspots website they have a whole bunch of gobies listed with pictures you can take a look...

As long as you're not getting wild caught fish your water hardness doesn't really matter too much. Tank bred fish are very tolerant to most conditions these days.

Hello just your local goby advocate here. They can be quite the interesting little guys. Just make sure they don't burrow into the betta's section of the tank Absolutely love watching mine scoot around the tank.

You don't need to cycle the tank all over again. I'd do a series of heavy water changes to get the meds out. If there's nothing alive in the tank anymore then just feed it with some sort of ammonia source until you get a new betta. That way the bacteria won't die and you won't have to cycle again.

That's nuts! Really can't get enough of how bright green and uniform they are. Straight up and down. Mine are the wonkiest things ever. They've started sending runners vertically. Leaves a lot to be desired XD

Absolutely love the 55. Very jealous of the Vals

If it ever doesn't load try using a different browser or going incognito. The latter tends to do the trick for me if it's being fussy.

Take a paper towel and lay it over the top of the water to soak up the oil. I have to do this in my betta tank every now and then. Usually it has to do with the food you're using. Different foods have different concentrations of fat, protein, fillers, etc. Depending on what's in it and your...

I think you've got some good ideas so far on schooling fish OP. A little something different marble hatchetfish. Super cool looking. But they'll only inhabit the top part of the tank. They pretty much just chill out. Not very colorful though. Someone mentioned cardinal tetras earlier I believe...

If you can get a small goby they are awesome! I have a Sumatran blue goby and just watching it roam the tank is super cool. It burrows under my rocks and hangs out all over the place eating algae. There's a bunch of other kinds of small gobies that don't get more than 1 1/2-2" some even smaller...

Aha! Looks a **** of a lot like Cynotilapia Afra black.

Haha okay that makes more sense. It's late my brain is slowly shutting down No shame starting with a smaller school of them first. MissNoodle has 10 in a 10 gallon plus a school of rasboras. So you can definitely bump it up to more safely in a 20g. With ample filtration of course. Imo can't...

Pseudotropheus Saulosi?

I wouldn't run gouramis with the betta. You could do gouramis instead of the betta. But bettas can absolutely be community fish. It just depends a lot on their temperament. Also I would stock the tank with everything else before the betta that way the betta (even if it's a female) doesn't have...

Just keep an eye out it's hard to get your hands on true JuliI corydoras. More than likely you'll end up with false juliis. Very similar looking just don't get ripped off
