hey all.
new here. obviously.
i came because ive had a tank for about 3-4 years now and ive never been fully into it.
but hopefully joining here ill be more into the hobby.
i have a 30 litre fish tank.
its about. hmmm. 30cm tall and dunno how long.
no live plants, all fake, although i have some bamboo.
and as for the fish!
well i have about 5.
but over the years ive had like 50 all up!
i have 1 red tail shark. which was the very fish i ever bought for my tank and is still alive!!!! so hes like 4 years old.
2 venustus. one male one female. male fully grown and eats any new or small fish (hes about 6-8cm long).
1 electric yellow (but i want 2 of them, then 2 electric blues. but im scared the venustus will eat them)
1 algae eater (not the catfish type you see in massive tanks. its just a normal tropical algae eater)
and yeah!
about a week ago i had 5 khoulie loaches, but no surprise when my large venustus ate all of them.
also!
im feeding them tropical flakes.
i know i shouldnt because there are chiclids in there. but theyve been fine with them. also it cost less!
anyways.
i might get rid of the venustus so i can make room for more fish. but how can i get rid of him? or can i make him less angry all the time
