[Importskyline22]

Alright guys. i AM finally cycled now. Unlike before when i thought i was but here you go, the proof...

Amonia(left)..........Nitrate(center)............Nitrite(right)

Now. I have 2x dwarf platties, 1x neon, and 1x otto(havnt seen him in days thou so i might not have him) What else should i buy?

Your prolly going to say more neons. to start out.

 

[Aussie_hippie_2]

You guessed right; neons.

 

[Importskyline22]

Yea i had 6 or 7 neons.....but not nemore they all couldent take the cycle...but one did!

It's funny, I have no luck with them in 10 gallons. Plus I don't think you can get a sufficient number of them in a 10 gallon to bring out their beauty.

:OT: im doing my cycle in my new 10G i was considering getting neons. Im just wondering how many neons a 10G tank could support, Species only tank.

10 to 12


back on topic, you should probably get some more neons, as you know already

 

[Importskyline22]

How many more neons would you suggest?

Any more fish i could add?

 

[Aussie_hippie_2]

5. Or you could get rid of him and get some different fish.

I agree that you should get rid of the neon (bring it back to your LFS) and add different kinds of fish, like maybe a ram as a centerpiece fish and a few more platies. Oh, and I would add more otos (maybe 3 more) because they tend to do better in groups.

Yea, i have always wanted a Ram. And about the otto, i cant find him...havnt seen him in days.
