Post by: gummy on July 27, 2014, 11:04:58 AM: it`s strange with the gouramis, started off with 2 neon and then added the 2 pearl ones which paired off mixed( one neon and one pearl)
added the 2 honey ones and they just keep themselves to themselves,
then was given the 2 other neon gouramis and they just mix in with the rest.

Post by: Puffin on July 27, 2014, 11:20:12 AM: Sorry, yes I see they are tiger barbs.

Post by: dbaggie on October 19, 2014, 03:40:04 PM: Looking good - like the large rocks and those barbs have certainly been chowing down!
Title: Re: hello
Post by: gummy on October 20, 2014, 10:57:03 AM: thanks everyone,

thought the tank looked empty before the rocks, and the fish just seemed to be there and not really doing anything. but once i had put the rocks in and made them somewhere to play they all seemed a lot happier.

my next project is to change all the silk plants for real ones
