OUCH!!!
OK, I have just read this here letter and judging by what you have in these
tanks, you have a disaster waiting to happen. First off lat me start by saying
it's great that you are a hobbyist, we can always have more around:) Now, down
to the nitty gritty, ok, where do I start?? Oh yeah, Angel fish in a tank full
of faster fin nippers is definitely a no-no. Mollies won't survive for very long
in a fully fresh water environment simply because they very much fare better in
a brackish environment with more carbonate hardness...Silver sharks have been
known to grow roughly a foot in length, (now we're getting to the southeast
asian species you have) Tiger barbs prefer a large school of like kind or else
they become bored semi-agressive fin nippers! (get the idea?) so now you know
what's going to happen to your gouramis AND angel fish (by the way, the angel
fish is south american) the kuli loach is gonna be a midnight snack by any
number of fish in there. your red tailed shark is pretty
quick enough to avoid trouble, however, your pleco is gonna grow into a HUGE
(18 inches) monster.
tank 2: keep an eye on that frog...IF it is the species i am thinking of, it is
a voracious predator with a big mouth.
tank 3: yes gold fish bowls work, but not for goldfish. Goldfish are mostly a
coolwater species of crucian carp that require ALOT of aeration, and HEAVY
filtration...they produce copius amounts of waste and will toxify themselves in
a bowl in no time
I hope some of this info helped:)
