So I have a 125g which is more of a grow out tank as I am buying a 300g acrylic down the line. I have 7 clown loaches(All are now doing great), 16 Tiger barbs, 9 young bristle nose plecos, and 1 large F2 Amphilophus Citrinellus(Midas cichlid). So I put in some mixed veggies which had "french cut gre...

No worries, growing fish out is the fun part.

Yep, he is slowly putting on weight though. Going to be a long fight, but he is coming along. Took awhile to get him to eat though.

It's because the parents are in another tank. Thats their son in his own tank from their first spawn. I can't put anything in the 110g with them.

My Tiger Barbs and Clown Loaches eating Midas Eggs from my F1 Midas(Amphilophus Citrinellus) pair. Breed too much so their eggs aren't going to waste. I have 8 of all three types of Tiger barbs and 7 clown loaches. Make sure to set it to HD. Not to mention my F2 Male Midas makes a few cameos along w...

Gourgous Schoal.

It wouldn't matter to them as it's only a few fish here and there. I am just a sucker for clown loaches. All are still doi...

First of all I am new to the site. Love the feel so I descided to register as I am not once again a Clown Loach keeper. Currently I have been stocking a 125g fish tank. My center piece of the tank is a F2 Midas that I have grown out(Parrents) are from Jeff Rapps. Due to his layed back nature I desci...
