Sorry to hear that, seems like a wast to have a new 125 without big predators. would look nice as a saltwater tank with the eel of your choice as part of the stocklist

Feeding just freeze dried is a bad idea...will certainly negativity affect nutrition. I disagree that frozen food somehow affects aggression. A limp silverside isn't exactly the same as a wriggling feeder fish when it comes to predatory fish's reaction..I feed frozen food almost exclusively and...

This is somewhat incorrect, as Gymnothorax polyuranodon tends to be the only moray with any signific level of success in freshwater. Check video of neoprodigy's eels he had in FW eating pellets and everything. Personally, I've kept a couple of freshwater tolerant species, but still recommend...

Try salt and heat. safest method, has always worked for me

your fish is fine as it is. adding another species of fish in there will not help your fish from feeling 'lonely'. your puffer is not from a species that needs to kept in a large school or anything...your fish is not lonely, or even capable of feeling so

The puffers and eels prevent you from using copper...perhaps hypo, or if it comes down to it, formalin

Not much you can really do with that size tank...wouldn't bother unless its a quarantine tank or for raising some fry

the black fin sharks are large growing active catfish that will need marine conditions (or at least high end brackish) as adults.

I'd rather not keep triggers with lionfish, way too nippy IME and from most of what I've read...that being said, I really like squirrelfish, have had the pleasure of a keeping a couple of species and they are really cool in appearance and behavior

Since its in reference to cichlids, Mayan cichlids (urophtalmus) can live and breed in pretty close to full SW, as they do as invasives in many parts of Florida

thanks for the responses. I'm just concerned that the eels would get picked on by the puffer.

would a juvenile dogface puffer be too aggressive (in terms of injuring) to be housed with juvenile snowflake eels in a 55 gallon tank for about a year or so? I worry it would pick at the eels. Thanks!

Wouldn't mix large cichlids with gourami (with the exception of kisser and giant) because most of the time the gourami can't handle the aggression.

if the convicts aren't paired up they will do fine in a cichlid community, even with oscars if the tank is large

too bad it wasn't a paratilapia, but an attractive fish regarless.

that crayfish is going to injure/kill the pleco eventually, I'd at least remove the crayfish

a trio (1m 2 f) of red hump eartheaters (steiney's) would be great, and they do a lot of "earth eating". One of the more aggressive geos though

most likely males, I'd try to make sure these fish are quarantined if they are new

if possible don't add the gourami, but it really does depend on the personality of your rams...you can try it, but don't be surprised if it fails

if you're willing to do tons of water changes I wouldnt bother removing any of the schoolers, but I'd look for aggression with the cichlids considering the tank size
