Looks amazing! I've been looking for this thread ever since I first heard about a gecko terrarium. Looks to have turned out really well. Congratulations!

Definitely don't do Otos. Information on Otos from the a lot of sources are very misleading. They need vegetables and algae wafers every day. Are extremely fickle and fairly fragile. Otos from Petsmart will usaully die. They also need extensive quarantining before adding to the system. If you...

I have goldfish, but they're charm definitely lies elsewhere. Their personality is the best, but maybe I'm just crazy. I love odd balls and puffers beat khuli loaches.

Can I see a picture of your clown loaches. Decades later the fish in that tank will have passed to old age and your clowns will be the size of footballs. The tank looks amazing! Have a great day!

I like option one and three. Videos of Tiger barbs just following somebody's hand are fascinating. Option I think will fit better and is closer to your original.

I bought new plants for my Otos.

Definitely love goliad farms. It's heart breaking to watch it. Hope things get better for him.

I don't know what's going to happen next, but I think I finally have a better understanding of the fish. They were one of my fist purchases in the hobby. Before I kept my Carnival Goldfish and some shrimp. I always kept different kinds of shrimp, but my Otos were purchased with me watching some...

Definitely not my finest moment, but I will stand by my decision. Isolating him in his final hours were to ensure the safety of my other Otos. Dying in the tank would just release lots of ammonia that I wasn't ready to handle yet. I have the water ready and will probably do a water change...

He's on his side. I think not feeding for one day really destabilized his health. He was about a year old. What should I do next. I have a quarantine tank where he can die in peace. I think I have a lack of plants which may be stressing my other Otos out. What's my next course of action. Do I...

I think there may be something wrong with him as he has a black top. The top of almost all Otos I know are grey yet he is black. I always thought it was strange, but chalked it up to him being older. Is this something to be concerned about? Also by clean the filter I mean I'm going to squeeze...

Maybe, but I'm not sure where my LFS gets their Otos as almost all Otos I've bought in the past have survived past 4 months. Anyways. I'll get the zuchinni going and probably do a water change along with cleaning out my sponger filter. There's been no gut bacteria death just yet and he...

I will definitely start feeding different vegetables. I used to have a fourth but he died a couple months ago. I didn't think one day would matter that much. I was snowed in and couldn't really go out to get anything. I know it's not a good reason, but I didn't have any vegetables that suited...

Right now he is in a trio. I've read that's enough.

Tank What is the water volume of the tank? 10 gallons How long has the tank been running? Two years Does it have a filter? yes Does it have a heater? no What is the water temperature? 73 degrees What is the entire stocking of this tank? (Please list all fish and inverts.) Cherry shrimp, Ramshorn...

Good to know! I want to definitely keep the Corys. Anything against Brown Pencil Fish. Those are another one I want to keep. I think they will work with more water changes and better filtration. I think I'll get a forest of Crypts and Val going. Both are easy plants to grow. Aq advisor says my...

I'm think about Panda Corys. I've read before that they can be kept in a 10 gallon and have always wanted some. I'm open to any other ideas. Corydoras are just one fish I've always wanted. I'm using an an Spongefilter. I think I'll do German Blue rams and Panda Corys. Is this a good idea?

Nothing highly aquascaped. No co2. Peacock Gudgeons seem nice, but I'm a little worried about fry from what you said.

I've owned CRS shrimp, with bamboo shrimp, and Otos in a 10 gallon. I've owned RCS shrimp, Ember tetras, and Otos (this was before the CRS srhimp and bamboo shrimp) in the same 10 gallon. I have some 6 year old goldfish. I used to have a blue dream shrimp tank, but I gave them to a friend. I...

I've been working on a big project for a while and am a bit worn out on it. I had a ten gallon ready for an extra quarantine tank. Something in the tank (big project) broke and leaked gallons of water onto my floors. Luckily I got it cleaned up, but the damage is quite disheartening. I'm...
