Looks good, but is the crushed coral a good idea for gouramis?

It sounds like something that might just resolve itself, especially if all the other fish are healthy and conditions are good.

That is a good question! Six seems to be the magic number, but I've never seen an explanation of why. You can't be too dogmatic about this, because plenty of people can give examples of having smaller numbers of schooling fish which seem perfectly happy and healthy (including me). In my...

Great to see these photos, guys. I believe this species is now called Pangio kuhli.

I hear you. I always want to poke my corys when then they are resting a little too still.

They are pretty cool! Thanks for the pics, guys, I didn't find any myself.

That's great. Could you post a picture - I've never heard of these.

I think your signature is overstocked :)

Thank you, I am a new owner of a couple of Bridgesii, so this was of great interest to me. They have grown a lot since I got them, and they do free-fall quite often, sometimes hitting rocks with an audible 'crack'. I hope I don't have to actually fix a snail shell - I would be worried about...

Umm, I hope it was the shrimp who had the bloodworms and not you...

I've heard that too, but I can't confirm it.

I must admit your post made me laugh, but I really feel for you too! I have had the odd water change mishap, but not as spectacular as your Friday!

I don't think the OP mentions real plants - some of them might help by competing for the nutrients that the diatom algae are living on.

:lol:

Nice photos, and very sweet fish.

Well, I can't believe you would let the water quality get that bad, Fish-Addict :)

Well, I can't believe you would let the water quality get that bad, Fish-Addict? :)

Next time I lose my car keys, I know who to blame...

At least you could hope you would hear it coming!
