These are my new fishies! There's 4 spotted danios and 2 striped danios. They swim around alot and make our fish tank more active. Also, the frog is hiding in the cave looking creepy in this picture.

If my tank were to be revolving around a light source like the Sun then this is how a it would look! The Zebra Danios are really fast moving fish and there are over 10 in this shot. But there are over 20 in the tank with an Angel to keep them alert and on their toes (fins). :)

New tank

Eric Rice posted a photo:

New tank

New tank, 20 gallons, with 2 fantails, 5 danios. If you ask people about mixing goldfish and tropical fish, you'll get a mixed response. Part of my reasoning had to do with the temperament (all fish keep to themselves), but mostly, the goldfish were in a room that had high temps, and they never seemed any worse off (very active, very happy). Same with the zebrafish. I do not use a heater and the tank is a constant 72 degrees, a bit cool for the danios, a bit warm for the goldfish, but I think it's a happy medium. I pay close attention to ammonia levels.

Incidentally, those are all real plants and there are bulbs planted in the faux-beachsand part to the left side. That's not sand and it's not flourite, just regular ol' white gravel.

All of these guys were in a 12 gallon, which was too small, and 20 is pushing it. In theory, fantails should have 10 gallons per fish, but everyone keeps to themselves.

Feel free to ask questions below.

I was actually shooting the fish behind him, but when you're shooting fish you can never shoot fast enough

in the time it took me to refocus and hit the shutter, this fish chased the other out of the shot completely and the light caught him just so
I added contrast but the colors are all real.

This is Li'Blue. He is a tropheous. He is Blue because some people refuse to recognise him for what he is.

He has a cute little blue face.

His fav song is Blue by Eiffel 65.

Not really, but I need some lyrics to make this fit TRP today.


Yo listen up here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees
Is just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and hisself
And everybody around
Cos he ain't got nobody to listen to

I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...

I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.

I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...

freshwater fish for aquariums Q & A

Voting Question: I need help setting up some tanks?
This is my list. I went online and got these items because they seem to fit my wants. I am getting a 50 gallon saltwater aquarium, and I liked these items. I love colorful fish, starfish, and the lionfish. I want to know if all of these are compatible or what, and I really want to keep the starfish, Blue Tang, and Lionfish on the list. Anything else might be able to be thrown out. I also want just some small, cool looking mussels and clams. Could you please revise my list for compatibility, and center it around my favorites, and make some suggestions. P.S. Everything on this list is not going to be bought, I just liked these things. I also would like to get either a BiUbe Pure or a Biorb Life, and any suggestions of fish (freshwater or saltwater). I am redoing my room to be strictly contemporary. Blue Tang yellow clown goby cave transparent goby red striped goby catalina goby Oscellaris Clownfish Tank bred Rusty Angelfish Lantern Bass Green Mandarin Red Mandarin Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish Live Adult Brine Shrimp Ghost Shrimp Fiji Standard Live Rock Bulb Anemone Condy Anemone Empty Fancy Hermit Crab Shells Sally Lightfoot Crab Spiny Sea cucumber w/ pink and green Dwarf colored feather duster Sand Sifting Sea Star Chocolate Chip Starfish Serpent Starfish Brittle Starfish Pillow Cushion Starfish Knobby Starfish Orange Starfish Pistol Shrimp, Red Banded Warty frogfish Banded Coral Shrimp, Gold Bumble Bee Shrimp White Dot Shrimp Chestnut Cowrie Super Tongan Nassarius Snail Red Pincushion Urchin Kelp on Rock, Grape Thanks!!!!! Sorry it may be so long or confusing, please just overlook it (:

Resolved Question: Why did my albino cory die?
I have a 20 gallon long cycled freshwater aquarium, ammonia is 0 nitrite is 0 and last time i checked, nitrate was about 20 i think I have vallisiniera spirarlis, java fern, java moss, crypt, cabombas, pygmy chain sword i add a little plant fertiliser with every water change regular gravel substrate 20 % water change every sunday driftwood, 2 fake ornaments lustar hydro sponge filter II, tetra whisper ex20 filter heater, temp is usually at 25 C stocking plan (in order of purchase): 4 guppies and 4 red crystal shrimp 4 albino cory cats 1 flame red dwarf gourami 4 platies also, i have a bunch of shrimp from java moss they were all aclimated my first cory died a few weeks ago, another died last week, and i found one dead this morning the rest of the fish are fine, and acting normally so were the cories the day before they died i examined the dead cories and they dont seem to have anything wrong with them i got them all from the same aquarium in the store...what could it be?? help me please!!! and even the shrimp are okay and i got them before the cories they eat alright, they're always munching on the flakes that drift to the bottom and the other fish seem to leave them alone I had this aquarium for about 3 months now...so its a new aquarium. i only have one cory now.

Resolved Question: can a spotted figure 8 puffer fish live with a cichlid?
i was wondering if can a spotted figure 8 puffer fish live with a cichlid? it says online that you can put a puffer in freshwater. so if it can live in freshwater i was wondering what it can live with. i really like cichlids so i was wondering if it can live with them what kind? what all Accessories do i need for the aquarium. also what any other info about them would be great.

Resolved Question: Do I need an aquarium for glofish?
I am buying two or three glofish, which are essentially zebra fish. I know they are freshwater, but I was wondering if I need a full blown aquarium or if a fish bowl would suffice. I don't have any other fish, and I am not planning on it.

Voting Question: Red bellied puffer put in saltwater aquarium in error?
I was mistakenly told that my new red bellied puffer fish was a brackish fish. After about 4 hours in tank he was sitting on bottom not moving. I moved him to a freshwater tank and he has seemed to liven up a little but his eyes which were red now appear to be white. Is there any thing I can do to keep him alive?

Resolved Question: male betta fish in community aquarium?
i would like to inquire if an male betta fist, just 1, is able to be in a 55 gallon freshwater aquarium with the ph of 6.5 temp of 78-80? there are tetras,corys,ottos,gouramais and a lot others. only thing im worried about is if the male betta will fight with the others?

Voting Question: What temperature should I keep my newly setup freshwater aquarium at?
I have a thermometer that sticks on the outside of the tank and it's about at 80. I was wondering what is the correct temperature? And what can I do to improve the cycle at my fish tank? I've added freshwater salt, as directed. Stress zyme and stress coat, also i bought bubble curtains. I just wanted tips. I want to make this a success without killing any fish. THANK YOU!! and any tips on what kind of fish to buy? I have 2 plecostomus, they are very old. They have been added right after setup by mistake, was a bit concerned at first. I'm guessing because they were shocked. But they seem to do a lot better now that I've added bubble curtains.

Resolved Question: Fish for a ten gallon aquarium?
I have a ten gallon aquarium that I want to put some fish in. I was wondering if glofish, small cichlids, and a few mollys would be a good match. If not, what are some suggestions for easy to take care of freshwater fish that I can have a variety in a 10 gallon tank. Thanks so much for your input :)

Open Question: Should I add more fish to this tank set up?
120 L (30 gal) freshwater aquarium. 6 guppies 6 scavengers (2 pandas 2 horse face 2 no idea) 1 9-inch pleco 1 discus

Resolved Question: MYSTERY LARVAE EXPLOSION!?!?!?
I have a freshwater aquarium. The only fish living in it is a juvenile jack dempsey cichlid. As I was turning out the lights in the house, I noticed that there are THOUSANDS of tiny white specks floating through the tank, and sticking to every inch of the glass. I'm guessing that they are actually some kind of mini-bug, because they seem to be crawling on the glass, not just being swirled by the current. Where did these come from and WHAT ARE THEY???? I have been trying to get him to eat less flake food and more pellets lately, and there's been a lot of uneaten flake crumbs floating to the bottom....that would make sense. It's just so...disturbing!

Open Question: can cardinal tetra's live in the same aquarium with guppie's and are cardinal tetra's schooling fish?

Voting Question: what's growing on the driftwood in my aquarium?
I bought a piece of driftwood from petco for my freshwater tank containing 1 male betta. I boiled it for an hour, let it soak for a couple days, and placed it in the tank. About 5 days later a slimy, cottony, film began building up on the driftwood. It's doesn't really have a color, but if I had to pick one I'd say it's whitish. I've taken it out and scrubbed it off a few times and also re-boiled it. A day after it's been returned to the tank the film builds up again. My tank gets a moderate amount of sunlight so I thought it might just be a form of algae, but I really don;t want to take chances with my fish even though he's still doing very well. What is this film and is it bad for my fish? Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Resolved Question: Will the aquarium plants i just bought last long?
I just went to petco and bought some platy fish and an "aquatic combo". I comes with 3 plants but it says this on the plant tag thing: Dracaena Spathiphyllum Ophiopogon Trichomanes Syngonium I don't know why is has 5 names if it comes with 3 plants but does anyone know if these last long, because i had a live plant before and it got mushy and fell apart in a week. Also do these require special care/lighting? I just have them in a 10 gallon freshwater aquarium with some platy fish,a filter, and a heater set to 79F. they are aquatic plants and they are underwater in my fish tank! Also i have little 1.inch platy fish i dont think they could really damage the plants, but i have 7 platyfish, one danio, and a cory catfish. this is weird, i just looked up all those plants and neither of them are the plants i just bought... the names on the tag arent the actual names of my plants, i dont know why that plant tag was with my set of plants.

Voting Question: What are the most beautiful, hardy fish for a freshwater aquarium?
I have had my 25 gal tank for a month now and am ready to add for fish! I am a beginner, so i need fish that aren't too fragile. I already have gouramis, platies, and killifish. What is the most gorgeous fun fish i could add? Thanks!
