I checked off Kubotias only because I have a group of 12 with large Clowns and they go together great. They are in my 300 gallon planted tank.

Thank you for your reply. I am trying to eliminate some large tanks from my collection. To do this I need to move many fish and I've heard of people keeping loaches in African Cichlid tanks. The Loaches I mentioned are in a 180 gallon tank and I wanted to convert the tank to African parameters and m...

I keep my 180 at 74 degrees. The Kribs may not spawn much at that low a temp but I'm not concerned about spawning them any more, I just want them to live out their lives peacefully. I've gotten over 400 Kribs sold from this pair, that's enough. I know the Weather Loaches would be better off at a low...

Measuring Levamisole

I have Levamisole. It's pure, 100% strenth. I have 52 grams. Proper dosage, from what I've read is 800 mg per 10 gallons. How can I measure this amount? Do I need to purchase a mg scale or is there an easier way?

Thank you, Michael
