I was just told in Chat that rope fish are actually too large for this tank.

Re: Is my 10-gallon tank overstocked?

If you're looking for some suitable alternatives for a 10-gallon tank, I'd recommend considering the following species. Chilli Rasboras and Dwarf Emeflaked Rasboras are great options, but keep in mind they're shoaling fish, so you'd want to get at least 6 or more of each. Celestial Pearl Danios are ...

Re: Is my 10-gallon tank overstocked?

In terms of bioload, I think you're pretty much at maximum capacity. However, it's also worth noting that both your Pristella Tetra and Panda Corys are shoaling species.

Re: Kribensis spawning has begun

Assuming you've got a grow-on tank all set, netting them is the way to go.
Who's on your list to sell the little ones to, then?

Re: Troubleshooting my duncan coral

I'm curious, do you have other corals thriving in the tank? I've found that a GSP not opening can be a sign that something's off with the water. My duncan does great on the sand bed, out of direct flow - it goes through phases of being closed, but nothing like three weeks straight. How often do you ...
