Hi, I was looking at Tiger badis or scarlet badis as my next fish. I was wondering if they have any notable differences, such as activity levels, size, or feeding habits. Looking into the one which is smaller and preferably less active because the tank I have in mind is quite small and...

If I could separate only one of them and feed them live food, should I separate the female or male? I have this breeder box I could use to separate, prepare them for breeding, and spawn them in. I was thinking of putting the female in there so I could directly feed her blackworms for a week...

I don't have any extra 5 gallons tanks, can I put my pair of Lyretail killis in a small critter keeper or vase to spawn? I would only do this for a day or two, but I am not sure if they would spawn/lay eggs at all or if this is a completely good idea to start with. I would probably put some...

Hi, I have a 40 gallon tank, 75cm x 45 cm x 45cm, or 30 in x 18 in x 18 in. I was looking for a species of puffer that could be kept as my centerpiece fish, housed a long with a few tetras and bottom dwellers. I have read that most of the, "peaceful" puffers need groups, so I would like to...

I mean two keyholes. Even if they are the same gender

Could I do two? I don't want to overstock the tank. And if I do two, will they be very aggressive?

Planning to add this fish to my 40 gallon community, with Pearl gouramis, corys, kuhlis and some small tetras. I don't want a pair because I don't want any aggression when breeding.

Red phantom tetras

Where do the red phantoms swim in the water column?

That's another option, I really like the look of the red phantoms, esp considering their price. I've also seen black Ruby barbs

Thanks, why do you like them better than the reds? I'm gonna be keeping them with emperor tetras, so I wanted that splash of color. Also where in the water column do they swim? Preferably middle and bottom.

I've read about this tetra a lot, however I have found a lot of conflicting information that I wanted to clarify from people who actually kept these tetras, or has experience with them. First question is how big do they get? I have been seeing 1-1.5 inches and I was wondering if that was...

Thanks, I can keep the kuhlis?

Thats for the others to decide!

I think I have my "final" stocking for my 37 gallon, 75cm x 45cm x 45cm and I wanted to ask yall if it is good. Im probably gonna run an aquaclear 50 or 70 and this is going to be heavily planted. Temp will be 77f Fish 3 Pearl gourami 10 emperor tetras (Nematobrycon palmeri) 8-10 kuhli...

Thank you so much, i will for sure make sure to check the scientific name for the kuhlis. Ive heard mixed opinions on the activity levels for kuhlie loaches. Lots say they are timid, while others say they are pretty active. I will have to look more into that. Any why do you say do not keep...

It seems like people are very fond of kuhli loaches. And by big group do you mean 16 or 8? I was thinking maybe 8 kuhlis (4 javas 4 striped) and 10-15 panda corys and 5-6 sterbai.

I'm planning to get some bottom feeders for my moderately stocked 37 gallon, 75cm x 45 cm x 45 cm. Im unsure however, which one to pick. My thoughts were between: - 10 bigger corys (bronze, albino, etc) - 20 smaller Cory's (pandas, salt and pepper) - multiple different types of Cory's together...

I thought the minimum was 20 gallons? Or do u have to choose between species?

Hi, I was going to upgrade my 7 gallon and my 2.5 gallon to a 37 gallon rimless. I currently have 8 least killifish and 2 lyretail killifish. I would like to move them to the 37 and add these fish: 1-2 African Butterfly Fish, 1-2 Pearl Gouramis, otos, kuhlis and corys Would this be possible...
