  1. My current guppy strains

    as far as fishlore you are second behind mimo91088 for the purples. I am setting up 3 grow out tanks just for the purples. one for baby fry and one for juvenile boys and one for juvenile girls so I can do this line correctly.
  2. Can I get a Bristlenose?

    Yes HOB = hang on the back Just because the water is clear does not mean it is low in nitrate. Yes under 20ppm is best for nitrates. All my tanks will test under 5ppm. Ammonia and nitrate there is no safe level. Needs to be at 0. Yes low 60's is a bit cold, I say stay between 68 and 82 if...
  3. HELP! I think my guppy fry has columnaris - quarantined but how do i make sure the others are safe ?!

    first before adding medication to the tank you want to make sure your medicating the correct issue. do you have a picture of the infected fish? how big is tank? is it cycled? water parameters? how long have you had this fish before seeing signs of unhealth I have the chart of what meds will...
  4. Can I get a Bristlenose?

    I still check my tank parameters once a week at minimum. I would yes start with just one pair, but are you going to fork out the extra $ to get an adult or raise up a few fry and find out sex later? FYI i have a friend with over 100 regular Bn plecos they cant sell or give to LFS... i...
  5. What type of guppy is this?

    Sometimes I worry with how much my fry stay in flow... but it's their choice, I'm feeding high protein fry foods so get your workout on I suppose.
  6. What type of guppy is this?

  7. Can I get a Bristlenose?

    even with a heavily planted tank i change water multiple times a week. you said water seemed healthy, but you lost fish and don't know the parameters of water so i would guess that it was not healthy. i have a few BN and guppies in a 55gal and change that water mult times a week also...
  8. Got some more plants and I don't think my guppies want me to plant them! lol

    im going to plant on my highest driftwood so can grow out of water I have read conflicting reports, and I guess ill find out for myself. I got for really cheap from friend owner of a LFS
  9. Can I get a Bristlenose?

    You can breed BN in 20 long buy you have to give perfect environment and 3x WC a week of %50 minimum, maybe daily. I would not put BN pair in 29gal w corys. If you are beginner and lost a BN in past I personally would at least test water weekly maybe 2 times a week. Just topping off the...
  10. Got some more plants and I don't think my guppies want me to plant them! lol

    Got some scarlet temple and mondo grass today and was lazy and just tossed in my 55gal to keep wet until I figure what do do with it. even though a heavily planted tank I don't think my guppies want me to plant these. I think ill let them float and see what happens with roots.
  11. Can I get a Bristlenose?

    it would be more suitable to breed them in the 29gallon. my question is how many corys do you have in that tank? they are also bottom dwellers and you need 8+ to be happy and that is too many for a 29 gallon. also no room on the bottom for the BN to breed guppies and BN plecos go great...
  12. What type of guppy is this?

    this is what emeraldking informed me of about my bluegrass, and after doing research with my blue and blue i may only get %40 blues. genetics are crazy. so i have 5 tanks just for my bluegrass / redgrass to keep blues genetics as clean as possible " Don´t be surprised if you´ll see red grass...
  13. Time to buy food, looking for ideas on new foods

    wow! so much food for such a good price and variety for stages of life $27 after shipping and tax
  14. What type of guppy is this?

    Females have that color because redgrass and bluegrass have both Gene's in both strains. Probably redgrass
  15. What type of guppy is this?

    Yes redgrass an option as they have that classic black swoosh up side. They look orange in pic. I know how hard to get true color of guppies on pictures. Here is bluegrass for reference
  16. What type of guppy is this?

    Orange yellow tiger I think. Never had them. But guess.

    Yea i know they are cheaper but I like the tetra whisper also, I think I will get a second pump to run the new 6x 10 gal. thanks for the insight
  18. HELP with choosing a new air pump.

    Hello all, I am in the process of setting up a new rack with 6 x 10 gallon tanks. In this same room are 4 x 20 gal longs (running on a tetra whisper 100) All 10 tanks will have sponge filters and some of the air line will need to be ran 15 feet or so if I choose to use one pump for all 10...
  19. PSA remember you can lubricate a loud filter.

    $15 used for aquaclear 70 was hard to pass up. Agreed there are many ways sometimes to get to the same goal.
  20. Will this work for stand?

    With the 3/4 hardwood ply upgrade I think will sag much less.
