thx! you should give it a try! you can start with something simple like a small 10g with no co2 and low lighting. guarantee youll want more after that :)

hey jcardona1, I was wondering how often you use the UV filter?
actually, i just purchased the UV light last week. so, ive only had it running for a week in my tank. i might be taking it out soon though...

haha banded killers. stupid leporinus :irked: everytime i go to Tropical or petsmart i see a new little tetra or other random fish i wanna add. when i was a tropical this weekend i almost picked up some congo tetras and rams. i need to stop adding fish :nilly:

Hey buddy….
I strongly suggest you pick up some Bolivian rams... Tropical usually has a ton of them. If you walk into the fish room turn right and at the east side of the wall at the top there is a long tank that is most of the time full of them. They don’t get very big but they way they interact with each other is awesome. They are more docile then the German and or the golden. If you do you should add some driftwood and some taller plants just for hiding spots and or spawning areas. I think a school of Bolivian rams would set that tank off big time. Just think about it.
