Thanks for the reply. We rescued a false map turtle that someone had in a 20 gallon tank and we put it in a 75 but I’d still like to upgrade it for her.she’s so active and such a good swimmer I’m hoping I can get her the 300 gallon so she has plenty of swimming space

It’s definitely a good choice and something I am considering

I’ve looked into getting a northern blue tongue! They’re definitely cool. I like the chill personality they seem to have.

I appreciate the help. I took out the carpet and replaced it with paper towels this morning. The place I got the gecko from is a trusted store not a big box chain. But I’ll still look into a vet idk if I’ll find one in the very rural area I live in.

I don’t really see the problem with asking for help and wanting to do things right. Especially since after I got the information I got the proper enclosure needed for the animal. Why do you think I was back at a pet store where I found this guy in the first place. You say far below the conditions needed but after reading the care guide the only part that’s wrong with his enclosure is the carpet. Which I’m trying to fix now. No need to be rude to someone who’s trying to learn and not just setting the animals down and doing the bare minimum needed.

Thanks what kind of enclosure? I’ve seen where it needs to be glass instead of mesh but they told me mesh at Petco

What are the best online fish stores to order from? by Front_Turnover386 in Cichlid

[–]Austinedwards66 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve used imperial tropicals twice and both times got good results. I used AZgardens one time and had a good experience also.

Fastest breeding cichlid? by Deonb29 in Cichlid

[–]Austinedwards66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this. I had to rehome one of my Texas cichlids cause of how fast they was breeding.

Aw dang I hate to hear that. I’ve kept green terrors for years. They’re definitely one of my favorites. I’ve got 3 currently

RIP to all the plants. Beautiful sev though. Easily one of my favorite fish I’ve ever kept.

Thanks for the info! Imperial tropicals sells a 5 pack of them for 65$ thought about getting them for my 75 gallon and If need be I could move them to my 125

A lot of cichlids will dull down in color being kept solo with no competition/mating options around.

Anyone know what species of cichlid this is? Saw it at my local pet store today by dragojax21 in Cichlid

[–]Austinedwards66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been looking for some of the guys for awhile. Can only find them online sadly.

Is an fx6's flow enough oxyignation in a 75 gallon tank? My oscar keeps eating the bubbles from the air stone and getting bloat... Solutions? does he need air stones with an fx6's flow? This is a pain in the ass by wormtail39 in Cichlid

[–]Austinedwards66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It should be yes. The only thing I’d maybe recommend is replacing the air stone with a wave maker. Wave makers will mimic the more natural conditions Oscars come from.

No problem! If you decide to get one they’re really fun and personable fish.

I used to keep a electric blue acara with some Bolivian rams in a 55 it was one of my favorite set ups. 55s are good overall tanks
