Hungry ciclids feeding

One week later...

Ammonia levels balanced and we added six more Ciclids to the tank.

African Ciclids - Babies

I recently changed the theme on my tank to African Ciclids.

Very soon (after the ammonia cycle balances), I would having a few more joining these babies.

30 Gal Tank

Bought a 30 Gal tank few days back as a birthday gift for myself ;-)
The tank comes with a gravel filter in addition to a complete bio-filter (foam+ammonia+carbon).
Just finished transferring all the fish to their new home.

Dwarf Gourami

Fish Fights!!

Last time I updated this blog, I mentioned that I added three new Red Minor Tetras to the 6 Gal. tank. Soon, I noticed these new guys were not so friendly with their neon cousins. A couple of days later, I started noticing my Neon Tetras were having partially nibbled tails and fins. I had read on several websites on Red Minors being semi-aggressive, territorial and fin nippers. But the same sites advised keeping them with other Tetras... well I guess they were wrong!!

I moved Wukum back to the 6Gal and moved the Red Minors to the larger tank. In their earlier days in the new tank, they tried to get a bite on the Zebra's long fins. But the Danios retaliated very well. Now the Minors seem to be more behaved and peaceful with their other tank mates. However, I am not surprised when I see one of the smaller Rasboras with a bite mark on their tail. I am still debating whether to move the Rasboras back into the 6Gal or add 3 more Neons.

Will post some photos over the weekend.

New Addition

Moved the two Zebra Danios to the larger tank and added three new Red Minor Tetras to the 6 Gal tank. Will post the photos later..

Tank Pics

I've moved the Rasboras to the new tank. I'm debating whether I should a couple more to make the school look better.














Some pics of the 6 Gal tank.
I have the zebra danios and the tetras in that one. Havent decided on when or what would be the next addition to it.
