At one point in time it was thought that certain animals and bacteria would appear in certain places if the conditions were met. An example commonly used was maggots. When something was rotting,...

No, it was a sort of supernatural mysticism. I'm not staying either, my spirit world needs me.

The Nitrogen cycle goes from Ammonia to Nitrite to Nitrate. Having a large amount of nitrate implies that you have the required beneficial bacteria to convert ammonia to nitrite and Nitrite to...

This thread is so old you somehow brought me back.

I'm so scared.

I didn't realize Cliff created things, I thought he only modified them?

I'm going to start with by saying that when you keep schooling fish like tetras and danios in groups of 1-3 they do very poorly as they are under quite a bit of stress. Truth be told, a group of 6...

Cories are some of the hardiest fish I've had in my owned. They're the oldest thing in my aquarium at the moment.

Well you don't want the tank getting overrun with guppies so it could be good that they're all eaten.

By the way, add 3 more Cory cats, they're best in groups of 6 or more.

For solitary fish I like Gouramis and Bettas. I also like GBR but those can be delicate especially if they were shipped from Asia.

I generally prefer large schools of fish. I think a big school of...

Yeah Bhrino beat me to the punch.

You know the old a expression: two's company, three's a crowd and six or more is the recommended number for schooling fish.

Hey don't give ridiculous suggestions like that!

...Lacerations are where it's at.

Uh, great. I'll repeat myself then.

Otos are a fish that you should keep in groups of 6 or more. I suppose you could keep them in lower numbers and they would live, but that's like keeping a small...

Slay the nonbeliever.

Wow good work Cliff!

Just hose out the water however you want. You will not destroy the cycle by scooping gravel, the bacteria is primarily in the filter.

This may be late, but you shouldn't be keeping Otos in groups of less than 6 and I wouldn't recommend Otos to a beginner anyway since they are a delicate fish with a high die off rate.

Well yeah in the 80s there was a huge amount of overdiagnoses of ADD and that was pretty bad, (especially since ritalin only makes people who actually have the genetic disorder they are perscribed...

I completely agree, I mean, kids just don't go quail hunting like they used to. what a sad day it is when a student can't take a gun to a school.

That's the real crime here.

If you feel the need, you can shoot a copy to me and i'll edit it in my spare time, I used to edit the articles on this site for a short time. Come to think of it, I'm not sure why I stopped.
