Re: Tips on Sun catfishes

I will get a 8 x 2 x 2 tank in the future.:d I think that would be good for 4 of them. Minipol's tank is tooo big. I dont have that much space. Is it okay if my tank is exposed to direct sunlight ? imo It will definitely pose problems in the summer. It goes close to 40 degrees.

Re: Biotope tank for Horabagrus brachysoma

I dont have anything in mind like an Indian theme or an Asian theme. Just want to keep my favourite species of fish i.e catfish n loaches. Anyways, good news is that I might get a 8x2x2(feet) tank in the future. So maybe then I can keep loaches in a totally different tank.:D

Re: Biotope tank for Horabagrus brachysoma

Thats what I thought too.. Clowns are too big so yoyo/zebra/bengal loaches should be fine.. Flower Horn has to be alone. There is no way any other fish can survive there so thats out of consideration :P I would have kept loaches there had that tank been empty.
But again, Your tank is brilliant :)

Re: Biotope tank for Horabagrus brachysoma

My fishes wont have any problems with such a high temp ? Which loaches do you suggest then ? I have 2 tanks but 1 tank has a huge flower horn. Otherwise I would have made a seperate tank for loaches n horas.

Re: Biotope tank for Horabagrus brachysoma

I observed that I have an ich infestation :( Im worried cos horas dont have scales and are easily infected. I will get my heater in a day or 2. So I suppose it should be fine if I keep the temp at 26-27 degrees ? And do they go well with loaches ? Im really keen on keeping clowns /yoyos & horas....

All my fishes are small atm. The baby catfish are hiding all day.. They are around 1 and half inches long. 4 filamentos,4 horas 6 loaches n 2 plecos is a good combo ? I have to shift the other fish to my dads office tank. I cant get a bigger tank in the near future. Atleast not in 2013. The growth o...
