Loaches Online Forum

Indeed guys...

As you might have read in late pages of this topic, it was a dream to be acomplished in a lifetime. And it became possible right close to my birthday. Cycling is expected to finish very close to my 50 years old aniversary (october 9th - gifts can be shipped to Brazil)

Thanks Emma,

Just uploaded a small video showing the tank:

Unfortunately, there´s no room for a larger tank on my living room. I think this will be the biggest one I can have here.

Light system is set up. It consists of 6x5Watt super leds, 3 yellowish, 3 white. First, a photo showing my 200 liter tank and new one: http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz94/Mataratzis2/Novo%20aquario/Evolution/232011-08-31.jpg Now 1000 liter tank with new lights on: http://i817.photobucket.com/alb...

You're barking! Good for you. Glad I don't live underneath your apartment

Hey,

I didn´t do it by myself. There where calculations made by an engineer. According to him, my living room structure can handle up to 3,5 ton.

Nice fishes Emma!

Never seen them in Brazil.

Guess everybody here knows my wish for a tank upgrade. I got it! :P I used my july school vacations to start upgrading my living room and varanda to fit my new dreamed tank: 250x75x55cm. First thing to do was to remove varanda´s doors to apply new floor (same as living room): http://i817.photobucket...

As you noticed, I´m from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I´m not able to help you. Let´s wait for somebody close to you to help.

i need to ask where can i find decent driftwood

For anybody to help you find drifwoods or other stuff we need to know where in the world are you?

Hello corius,

First of all, I would have 5+ Clown loaches, not 4. I also recomend use of big leaf plants like Anubia. Cave rocks and wood are also very apreciated.

Marcos.

Thanks raedeon!

Don´t move out from your parents. I don´t want to be gilt of that!

Hi tonzz, I had Discus and Clown loaches for more than one year with no isues at all, but have to confess that about four years ago I tryied to put a Betta splendens within the Clowns and there were a little bothering so I move the Betta out the tank. If your Angel fish is not too small there is a g...

For this time yes, but have in mind that Clown loaches will grow up and your Tetras will be put in risk at that time. No problems with the rest. New Videos for my tank: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wd6lDj5CfRQ This one is pecking fight between #1 and #2. Looks like there will be an inversion in th...

I have read a couple reports that they use to grab and suck mucus of slow fishes like Discus but I never see them doing that. Yes, I do have another CAE at the Discus tank.

That´s my Chinese Algae Eater. Very effective against brown algae.
