Ok......they swim really fast, so the pic kinda sucks...

 

[big54bob]

Those are some nice danios. Just wait until i get me 55gal Muuuhahahhahahahaha. Its SOOO gonna be better then yours.

 

[Kissyboots]

Here's a better pic. I was goofing off last night and shined a flashlight at my fish. Then I took a picture of them with flash. They were pretty much in focus most of the time.

WOW nice pic kissy!!

 

[Meghan]

They are a lot prettier in your tank then the ones I see at my lfs. Nice!

 

[Lakea]

Yeah, zebra danios never really appealed to me, but that is one nice looking fish there, I may have to rethink my previous judgments...

 

[Kissyboots]

Check out this feeding frenzy! I guess they really love algae wafers; they were even nipping at the cories so I had to throw in a couple more so the cories would get their share too. They even have little whisker things!

Anyway, back to stocking...I'll be getting my pump in November. I want to get two rams and possibly a rubberlip pleco, but I'm not so sure about that anymore. Any other suggestions? It seems my tank would be pretty empty...the rams only get 3 inches.

I have a Zebra Danio.

In a word it is... HYPER !!!

It all over and in ewveryone else's business.

It will eat or bite at anything.

It is like the social butterfly of the tank.

Crazy darn fish....


Nice tank you got there KB.

 

[big54bob]

Aww no big cats oh well.

Any way german blue rams seem to sensitive to keep alive in me minnesoota water which is really hard. If u can why not try bolivians, apistos or kribs then get rams

 

[Kissyboots]

Well, my fish sure love the tank! The otos have 4 rescued offspring so far and the cories are spawning again right now. I have ramshorns all over the place which is a nice treat for Weebo...

The gravel is getting more mixed after vacuuming, so it's not as pretty as the pics above. I also need to get some plants...

Do moss balls float?

 

[Rayneuki]

Which type of moss balls?
There are some that float that are at my local pet-co, but they put fishing line on them and a weight to keep them down, so they look like mini-green-underwater mines.

I'm actualy thinking of getting some of those for my 30
*needs a camera!*

ThanKS.

I am gonna get some Ottos for the 38 when it is done cycling.

I would get them now but using fish to cycle a tank is cruel and PITA needs to do something about this practice.

Uhhh........not sure what you mean by that......you mean PETA? They'll just kill everything.


And I didn't realize there were different types of moss balls! The ones they have at Petco are the ones that float, yeah, like mines. But I kinda wanted ones that didn't float if that is possible.

 

[bunker_1]

I see them on ebay and the pictures show them on the substrate. I am not sure if there are different types or if there is a way to hold them down.

 

[Rayneuki]

Some at my petco float, some don't. I see the fish attacking them in the tanks though.

Darn it, reminds me that I need some wood for my tanks. D<

 

[Kissyboots]

Since I have a bunch of fry...again...I moved Weebo into the big tank with a divider:

I don't like it AT ALL. And pardon the messyness, the airlines won't stay down, but I'll fix that by saturday I hope.

nice job KB
