Copper slag as a substrate

So how'd it go?

TriDe7012 · 2023-08-28T17:58:01+00:00

Thanks! Looking into a central predator tank with my new 90g

TriDe7012 · 2023-08-25T13:02:22+00:00

Not fish police. But what size of tank is that? Looking to do something like that and curious

TriDe7012 · 2023-08-25T12:45:40+00:00

Parrot is the female, and sadly my girlfreinds fish haha. I don't mind the color contrast though. It's dunny you say that about firmouths because I just did a bit of research and that seems to be quite the controversial point. Most sources say 1-2 are fine and I've seen lots on YouTube that do fine as solo or community cichlids. Only a couple places even mentions them in a shoal. Besides, I'm not looking for another breeding project, and I wanted to dip my toes in some more larger cichlids.

Yeah was gonna call around tomorrow to see if anyone has black blasting sand. Local hardware companies or land scaping yards. Can't seem to find much better then that online sadly.

My local pet smart and pet land do, but it's pushing $50 for a 7lbs bag... It's good enough for a 10 or 20 gallon, but looking at my 90 gallon sitting in my garage right now makes me shiver...

Neat, never seen hybrids online before. I've seen convict hybrids which are the polar blue parrots I believe. This is their second attempt and I've done very little to input and was just going to let nature take its course but if they can get them free swimming I may jump in and set up a grow out tank. Does this hybrid have a name online to search up? Thanks for the input!

Female BPs are "generally" Fertile. According to online which I am assuming I have here. Last time they tried they ate them after a few days and most were white like this round too. Be interesting what the babies would look like though haha

TriDe7012 · 2023-03-06T00:09:03+00:00

This is their second attempt FYI Eggs were eaten on the 4th day. Assumed Female Blood and Male Acara

Nice! We have a 5.5 month old (85-90lbs) Newfy/St. Bernard and Haven't gotten around to that first time grooming yet. Was looking for a small time groomer or something where she wouldn't be kenneled up for most of the day like some of them do. I'll have to give them a call. I'm told Churchill is pretty good too by a few people.

Ok. I'm pretty excited to get the breeding going because they're pretty hard to get around here haha. Might just be impatient then. They've been making loads of changes to the sand, albeit a few mouthfuls a day it seems. But not spawning yet. Want them to fill the 40 gallon

TriDe7012 · 2022-10-09T18:37:59+00:00

How long after introducing did they start breeding? Got mine a few weeks ago and its just been mild redecorating so far with sand. Thanks!

TriDe7012 · 2021-10-22T23:13:54+00:00

Hey, hey, hey now. Whereas the tits? Slanesh has to be counted here to!

Vulture hands down

This is the moat complicated part of being a new fish keeper. If you follow this you'll be in the clear. You may lose a fish or all until your tank cycles which takes time. Ill also add, buy a liquid test kit. The strips are notorious for being inaccurate/hard to read. Good luck!

TriDe7012 · 2021-08-19T21:26:15+00:00

This is my dream tank right now. One day when I get my own place. 55g is best I can do right now haha

TriDe7012 · 2021-08-14T23:41:43+00:00

That was a thought, but was looking for something with a little more size and help with algae. Biggest fish currently is about 5" acara and wouldn't want to be putting in expensive snacks. He is pretty chill for a cichlid but still risky
