ideas1400, I had never seen the
Ruby scat (Scatophagus argus) before, certainly not at local fish stores. The brackish fish present interesting alternatives. (Although this has dots and not stripes.)
Your
Frontosa cichlid (Cyphotilapia frontosa) pic is beautiful . . . awesome nuchal humps too! Drs. Foster & Smith have a faded pic. (below)
I got a
125 gal wet/dry, and I've had it running for a month. The lfs guy says it can biofilter an enormous amount of waste, and that the limiting factor for overcrowding would only be territories and aggression.
Yeah, he offered to sell me a $1200 ORP/millivolt computer/probe with a denitrator/deniballs. He keeps a beautiful bare-bottom reef tank using that setup, but that's still pricey for me.
ddot, was that a
Firemouth cichlid pic that you posted? I couldn't really identify him.
grins, I was surprised to learn the Clownfish is a damselfish. My friends 1" blue damsel is alone after killing his 2 brothers.
The lfs guy say the severums can develop some nice colors
FWIW, my ammonia has been reading 0ppm, and the nitrates between 5 and 10ppm. I guess I could give up the catfish and the knifefish.
anywho looks like you are researching the sw idea a lot which is great, hope we can help you out with getting something colorful going for ya!
