    Lol well it's sweet that you still have her. At moments I bet you're tempted to "rehome" her. I have an angelfish mama with a similar protective mentality. She doesn't even allow me to photograph the tank. And she flies out of water to attack my hands if I attempt to fudge with the heater or...

    Indeed we have :) and my 120 has been put on a back burner. I'm actually using it as a grow out tank for fry currently lol. I'll get back to it eventually

    Does this tank look planted enough for ellasomma yet? Also wondering about using this small filter instead of an air stone. Will it work? I'm not a fan of air pumps. Unfortunately the vibrations bother me. I'll try to upload a video and pm you. I can't figure out how to do it on the site...

    Hi @gerald I was wondering if you knew' where I might be able to get these little guys? I've been working on an aquarium for them. Getting pretty close to ready. Just need to start some live food cultures now.

    Thanks. Ruby green is my favorite after research. Of course I've never had any. I'll see what I can find out about an aquarium club. Never even looked.

    That's so awesome. I just love the idea of it but I should chew on it a while more before diving headlong. I have an empty 10g tank. I could start setting it up and let it cycle and such then decide How to stock it. What substrate would you recommend? I tried mosquito larvae once for my angels...

    When you said Sun fish I imagined the sun fish we have here. http://offerup.co/lLdq/Nuu8h9sIZF Huge comparatively :p I had no idea they were killi fish. I have so much to learn.

    Good idea. My water is very hard tho I don't know the gh. The kh is 161 in my quarantine tank which has only some hornwart in it. Calcium was 80 to 100 ish. I do have this chart from city of Phoenix tho I don't know how helpful it is. I don't really know anything about water hardness. My ph is...

    And I'm pretty sure this thread is posted wrong but I've no idea where to put it. Also not enjoying square 1 :( what about a ton of nano fish like embers and celestial danies? Would a few apistos work with them? Wait they aren't temp compatible are they? I've no idea how to stock this tank :(
