hey all,
im jess and im 13 turning 14.
and atm i have my standard 4 foot running with:
1250 aqua one canister, some heater, 4 foot t5 light,
any way its aplanted cichlid tank:
2x 10cm very nice colour 6 bar frontosa's  DSC00522.JPG ( 84.35K ) Number of downloads: 34

1x block head cichlid, lion head.
1x small pleco, i love plecos!
1x 12cm annoying electric yellow, ive got his coulour back from some silly person feeding him goldfish food, so as you could imagen he was very pale, but his colour is above average now, so looking to seel him.
1x blue sheen angel, not a fan mum wanted it... to be honest i was hoping hed turn into a feeder fish.

and a 3 foot with everything needed and a yound colony of nice colour ellectric yellows and lots of peppies.

anyway if you havent seen my post on classified i was hoping to swap everything i got (equipment in my detail on classified) for a 6x2x2 with no scratches cover glass and a nice wooden stand or cabinet.
is that unreasonable?(if you have read what i have to offer)

either way if i do end up getting the 6 footer i was hoping to have a little saratoga jaradini, 2 pacu, plecos and maybe a gold knife fish?
i was hoping to get all around 10 cm mark, how much would they cost at 10cm mark?
and will they live happily together?
and any ideas of what fish i should get.

hay mate pacus will eventually outgrow the 6x2 and chances are their wont be sum babys round for a while
gold ck you wont find under 30cm and you lookin $400-$800 depending on seller
jardini will be fine and at 10cm ull be paying $60-$150 depending where you buy from
and you gota watch jars ones they reach a certain size they can snap and shred all your fish

thanx, i wanna keep my fronnies but i raised them from 2 cm and they have very nice colour, would they mix?

Not really, They should actually be in a tank with tang conditions. They aren't really a comunity fish.

so what fish do you recomend with the saratoga, the sara will be the main thing i just want a few background fish.

i have tried a few fish in with my saratoga Fred it hasnt ended well fred seems to get on ok for a bit then smashes them
the only thing that has lasted is my big gibby and a few big plecos,i think the reason for this working is that fred spends most of the time in the upper levels of the tank and the gibby and plecos are bottom dwellers
where as a fish swims every where
this lot all live in a 6x2x2 for the moment but with how big fred and the gibby are getting i will need a bigger tank in the next 12 months

thats good, cause i do love my plecos

I have got a 6×2×2.5 tank with Ehiem Pro 3 filter. I actually want to trade for 4ft. The tank is about 3 years old. By the way, I lived in Bunbury as well
