G'day guys/ gals, being an aquarium and fish lover, thought that some others of the same mind set could have a little nook on this ever growing community we have here.
the thread is designed to have general discussion about everything to do with aquariums, tropical and marine alike, including pumps filters and accessories, breeding, managing illness etc, and lets not forget the beautiful fishies.
to start off, im still relatively new to owning an aquarium and over the past 6months its become quite infectious, and went from 1-40Lt tank to a 200Lt (and turned the 40Lt into a feeder fish tank, and now ive got my 450Lt ready for marine (still not set up yet)
anyway, im loving having fish and its taken me a few months to get the general hang of things and now starting to reap the benefits of it, and also the hardship of loosing a loved albino tiger oscar due to "ICH"
here is the list of fish i have at the moment;
2x 20cm Tiger Oscar (cichlids)
1x 10cm Tiger Oscar
1x 5cm Convict (cichilid)
2x 7cm Silver Dollar
1x 10cm Plecostomus (cleaner fish)
these are all in my 200Lt tank and is probably just a little crowded for the time being it will have to do, as im still debating if i keep my 450Lt tank and use it as a Tropical and sell the 200Lt or sell it, as ive just looked at everything i need to get it running as a marine aquarium, and will cost me a small fortune along with the other two tanks.
please post up your fish you have and even some tips on having live plants in the tanks as my oscars love to up root them regularly
and some pics
