    new here need help

    I'd try to trade the "parrot" cichlids back to a fish store, with the weakened immune systems due to the dyes, they will be generally sickly.

    What would you put in a 125g Brackish set up?

    a group of archers along with maybe some colombian sharks would make an interesting display with lots of movement.

    Identify the fish game

    Is it a perch of some kind? Chinese perch perhaps?

    Am I at my limit on stocking?

    Good to see you don't care about the well-being of the crabs. Is there a way for them to get up to the hammock?

    What size tank do I need

    I'm not sure on tankmates, so I won't speculate, but I'd stay clear of any other Vieja as tankmates.

    Am I at my limit on stocking?

    I wouldn't add the crabs.

    What size tank do I need

    I'd say 125 gallon minimum for one

    Stocking my 180g

    Red Devils are too agressiv, I'd stick to something along the lines of large-ish SA (chocolates, geos) or small CA cichlids (rainbow, Cryptoheros) of lesser aggression.

    Stocking my 180g

    Don't see the problem adding an oscar as long as the filtration and WC schedule is good. Otherwise, smaller species like Honduran red points would be interesting.

    Can someone tell me about Blockhead cichlids.

    I'd keep it in a pair, with some dithers, but stay away from two males.

    setting up the tank

    If you don't want pairs, you might be able to get away with a blue acara and a firemouth in that tank, but there's no guarantees considering the individual personalities and the small space involved. Neither the severum or oscar would fit in this tank under any circumstances.

    Can someone tell me about Blockhead cichlids.

    I've found them to be more aggressive than usually stated by "species profiles", but only in that they tend to defend themselves well against larger fish.

    Firemouth in a 30?

    IMO better candidate for the tank than a firemouth would be Laetacara curviceps or port cichlids if you can find some.

    Just upgraded from a 10 to a 30 gallon

    a centerpiece fish, like some dwarf cichlids would be a fine addition.

    BLACK DOLPHIN ?

    i figured it was just some fancy trade name for a miscellaneous mormyrid.

    Worms??!!

    praziquantel will handle the worms pretty effectively assuming they are nematodes.

    flowerhorn Cichlid

    the flowehorn will probably end up killing most of the fish in that list, especially in a tank that size. a flowerhorn alone would need the whole tank, and with big fish like the dempsey and oscar, you shouldn't be adding anything anyway.

    Just got my Salvini pair from Jeff Rapps!

    good looking salvini's. Rapps always provides high-quality fish, great pickup indeed!!!

    irresponsible fishkeepers part 2: helping

    Why not get this friend to visit here or MFK and get some advice on how to do it right.

    20 long stock

    Don't add a convict or salvini, as they are far too aggressive to go with a firemouth in a tank that small, and the salvini gets a bit too large as well. The blood parrrot gets far too large for the OP's tank.
