well known they eat there own big one may of been getting old or ill and lost its dominance? lol
usual nip each others tails ect

[blackie_2k5]

m8s got them they rip each other apart first sign of weakness.... get some neons and a sucker.... looks like a shark but cleans the tank, amazing fish...cant remember the proper name but the specialist will know what you mean by a sucker fish. do the world of good as they add life to the tank , look cool as fook and clean all the while

I personally reckon they were hungry and seen the big one and thought its about time he loses all his weight but they ripped him apart all that was left was the eyes, bones and its teeth!

[blackie_2k5]

m8 used to throw a chunk of boiled ham(proper ham off the bone) in the tank when they were hungry as a party trick..... the rumours about them arent lies, they wil strip meat from bone in seconds, his were ilegal imported fish from mexico but fuck me they didnt half do the job,

[blackie_2k5]

nope they really do look like a mini shark ,try searching sucker fish...might actually be the technical name, i cant remember tbh but ill try find out now and post a link

[planetrover]

you want a pleck to clean the glass of your tank and they eat quite alot of the crap in there aswell.
maybe some bottom feeders aswell like clown loach but you have to find out how you want it to look before you buy anything.
if you want a community tank look at tetras, gourami ,platies,guppys and so on you can get some really colourful fish now for tropical tanks.
i used to have marine tanks which cost a fortune and you could wake up in a morning and have a fish die that cost you £300 not good

[Azza-VTR]

I think ya mean a catfish (suckerfish)

[planetrover]

catfish not in that size tank they can grow over 2 ft long in a tank lol

[AshC]

I think they are catfish. My mate used to have 1, sucks side of the glass all the time.

[planetrover]

[stiffler69]

yup same delivery on my site, but the difference i my fish cost half of what theres do

[planetrover]

if you bought expensive fish why not collect yourself i wouldnt trust a carrier anyway

[tom130691]

yes but they have a fair few more fish :P would still have to get like 20 odd fish of diff types to justify the postage

[tom130691]

if you bought expensive fish why not collect yourself i wouldnt trust a carrier anyway

most ill be spending is like £10 on a fish lol

Yeah i am quite a distance away from you, they may have more selection but the quality and size you would get from my stock will far better and adapted to tank life,plus all you need to do is tell me what you want and i can get pretty much everything they stock on their

[blackie_2k5]

the dudes right its a pleck, couldnt remember the name... really cool fish

[KINGVTS]

i suggest you do a lot of reading on the subject

[C4_Lew]

As king said, read up alot, have a look on practical fishkeeping forum I learned alot there when i started out a few years ago.
Be careful what plec you choose also as alot can grow over a 12" some over 2foot

[Saxo_Steve]

After watching 7 pounds I think a big tank with a jelly fish swimming about would be cool to have.

this quote sounds farmiliar:p

[Jackman]

I think the picture makes it look a bit bigger thank it is!

Not sure on the exact size. 4ft maybe

My uncle works for a Fish Shop so we manage good discount on most stuff. But i know it owes my dad a few grand with buying it from the start to today!

[planetrover]

yep i had 500 quids worth of live rock in mine that was just the starting point lol

[tom130691]

this why i went tropical as its alot cheaper than marine :P
and a bit more interesting than cold water

[BambiHan]

Nice tank. Used to keep and breed fish, had 7 tanks on the go at once at one time. Also had a tank with a Tiawanese prawn in it, he used to eat live fish and got to about 6inches long before he died while I was on holiday - relative wasn't feeding my fish properly :( miss him he was entertaining. Will try to get another one day, they are hard to get hold of.

[Rob-6]

i love marine tanks really expensive to get a good setup though, plecks are what you want to keep your tank clean we have a couple of albino ones and all they do is eat!

[tom130691]

have been told i need live plants and an air pump?
will get a pump anyways
