I am gonna hit up a bristlenose, but how stocked is my tank? is there room for more fish? like some more danios?

 

[Swimfins]

72 gallons? can you run me down what's in there now?

I picked up 4 rainbows, 2 kubutu and 2 red male and females.

I didn't quarantine them because this LFS quarantines all their fish before sale, so I took a chance. All is well......

But qt is a good practice.

1 Giant Danio, 2 clown loaches, 2 moonlight gouramis, green severum, 2 silver dollars, and a BGK, and soon a bristlenose

Whoa good times with this forum, and yes i am that person that brings back OLD posts, but wanted to mention that the BGK is doing awesome! He comes out all the time and his favorite food is brine shrimp! I am really glad I got this guy!

Swimfins, hows yours doing!!! I will post pictures soon of him! no name for him, besides BGK!

 

[ryknier]

here's a couple BGK pics that I took over spring break while in Mississippi:

Hey all,
I've had my BGK for about a month now and he's doing great. He has a large lacerock cave in a 72G bowfront tank. Some have warned of tiger barbs with BGK's. I have 9 tigers in my tank that must be more well behaved than most as they don't bother ANY other fish at all, including the BGK and dwarf gourami.

Saray, I think those pics are of a clown knife.

I am absolutely LOVING that big rock on the right side! Great find!

 

[JohnH.]

Yeah, the rock is cool. It's 22" wide and completely hollow. Here's a pic I just took of my bgk inside. A little blurry as my camera sucks and took the pic at a very oblique angle relative to the glass.

There was a BGK at my LFS last night and I was SO tempted to get him. But I'm doing some changes to my tank so I opted to wait to get it. It's the first time I've ever seen the fish in person, and it was beautiful.
