Thanks Crystal
I am getting a 5 gallon for my guppy fry. that is the biggest tank my mom will let me get now because im only 13 and in my room I already have a 40 gallon, 2 ten gallons, my guppy fry are currently in a 1.5 gallon, and three smaller tanks with betttas. so the only other tank she will let me get is a 5 gallon. but I am going to get a tank divider so I can put the males on one side and the females on the other. I do have a store lined up that im selling them to so i know it will be a little overstalked but it will have to do. I called petco and petsmart and the smallest size tank divider they have is for a 10 gallon. they said to check online, but im trying to but i cant seem to find a website!! can someone please give me a link to where i can buy a 5 GALLON TANK DIVIDER!!! please no comments on how a 5 gallon is too small for guppy fry. I know!! they babies will only be in there for a month or two. I am an expierienced fish keeper and have had fish my whole life!! I just need to know where I can get a 5 gallon tank divider!!
If not could you atleast house one? How to difficult is it to breed LTGLs? I’m not quite sure what a UVB light is but I have a light that is almost purple tinted and puts off no heat and is long and thin, what kind of bulb is this? What kind does the LTGL require? Tips and tricks appreciated and homemade ideas for an incubator?
Okay so don’t worry i’ve had freshwater fish and now i definately think it’s time to move onto something more of a challenge. I also closely know a really good lfs that will help me out a lot. But basically i’m planning to have a mini protein skimmer and all the stuff that a small marine tank has. Now for fish i have a few questions: (by the way the tank will be fish only with live rock until i feel comfortable to add some corals or an anemone in the future)
1) I definately want 2 ocellaris clown fish, lets face it they’re essential to any marine tank in which they’re compatible. So do they need an anemone?
2) Bangaii cardinal fish, so i hear that they’re best in pairs because they get quite aggressive to the odd one out. Any thoughts on these guys?
3) Green chromis, okay so i hear they’re relatively peaceful and a good little fish. I know they’re damsel fish but do they like to be kept in groups? How many could i get (comfortably) in the 30 gallon?
4) Longnose hawkfish, i’d love one of these guys (only one) and i can’t see why i’d have many problems with one. How does that sound?
5) Schooling fish, i really want to have a schooling fish, any suggestions?
6) Coral beauty angel fish, don’t really want one but i may as well throw it into the mix, any opinons on these guys?
7) Bicolour blenny?
what is an ideal anemone for the ocellaris and how hard are they to look after? (don’t freak out about it i’m not going to be getting one the first day i set up the tank)
So an ideal first stocking would be:
2 x ocellaris clownfish
1 x longnose hawkfish
and
6 x Chromis (if they like to be kept in groups, or another schooling fish)
How does that all sound and please give me any suggestions but i definately feel i’m ready to go marine.
I would also love some type of cleaner shrimp, ideally the skunk clener shrimp (lysmata amboinensis)
Thanks
I don’t want to add all of these fish. They’re just some fish that i’ve read are suggested for marine beginners, they are some of the fish i would like to incorperate and with the information given i’m wanting people to give me suggestions on how to mix and match them.
I am going to get an eclipse 12 gallon aquarium and I’m also going to buy a heater. The substrate is going to be sand and it will have live plants. Here’s my stocking plan. 6 albino cory catfish, 2 African Dwarf Frogs and a veiltail female betta. I already own the betta and need to get it a new tank because it’s currently living in a 1 gallon tank with an air pump, rocks, and decor (I understand this is an improper tank, but as of right now she’s doing fine. Would I be overstocking my tank and/or placing incompatible fish in the tank, I want them to be happy. Also I can’t what heater to get. Should I get 50 watt or 100 watt? Please give me a link to a HIGH QUALITY heater under or around 50 dollars. Thanks and an additional advice would be extremely helpful as this is my first tank (except for the one I have the betta in and I don’t call that a tank). which fish should I use for cycling and after cycling what order/how should I introduce my other fish? Also How do I convince my parents to let me get it. They don’t know I want this yet because im not sure how to approach them about it. Parents, what made you let your kids get a fish tank? Teens, how Did you convince your parents to allow you to have the tank? I plan on buying everything my self by working at my parents restaurant and I currently take care of my tank all by myself and have plenty of room. I think they’re just gonna say you don’t need any fish at all mention it again you’re grounded. Thanks for reading the long question extra tips greatly appreciated!
