Howdy yall! Scorpio and I picked up some fish last night from another boxer, along with a 10g for my snails (which came today), a 40g and 6 fish which came with them. I've spent the bulk of the day preparing both tanks & with no internet. Off to the LFS I went to pick up some new supplies and see if I could find any info on the new babies. No luck. I've got internet back and am finding mixed reviews.
Decided I would come here to see what experiences yall have had & get some sound advice rather than see what ehow or yahoo has to say. These guys need a bigger tank, that's for sure. There are way too many fish in the 40g & we'd like to put some of them into our 75g (if possible) with our 2 oscars (3-4"), pleco (4-5") & our dragonfish (5-6"), which will eventually be moved to a 150+g. They're all little guys right now and I just don't want to get any of them hurt or killed.
The fish that we came home with are 2 pink gouramis (3"), 2 parrot fish (4") *how do you tell a true parrot from a blood red parrot?* & 2 loaches (6-7" with amazing jumping skills & very distinct black and white stripes. *ID?*) Which reminds me that I need a top for both of the new tanks *sigh*.
Which of these can we possibly move into the 75g with our oscars? Pending attitude adjustments, of course. Our tiger oscar is SO docile, and our albino oscar is too, once it gets to know you. (We're sure she's a woman, lol.) I've read about pink gouramis kissing the faces off of other fish, loaches going nutballs, oscars killing everything, etc. Then again, I've read about all of them living together peacefully. We need some input from experienced people!
