It’s all thanks to you Kev. I’m going to run a Frontosa tank and hopefully I can raise these juveniles up to adults. (I know I’ll need a 210+ in about 2-3 years).

Did u say "Clown Roaches"? (did I hear that right?) If they serve such great purpose in the tank than I may have to get a couple for mine. I'll remember to do a 50% fresh water change in addition to new fish. I wonder how would those small OBs be treated by those big guys when you eventually add them in the 210🤔 awesome video, as always and beautiful addition to the 210

I did my new 75 gallon tank Set-Up on Thursday May the 27th. It is now Sunday. 3 days after & the Ammonia is at zero and the Nitrate is at zero. The tank is still a little cloudy. Kinda like your tank here in the video (after your water change). My question: How long does it take for it to be crystal clear? I have a PX2 canister filter with course/medium/fine filters, plenty of ceramic media/rocks/stars, etc. in the middle and a Nitrate Bio-bag at the top with about a 1/4 of poly-fil to top it off. I have 2 power heads, one on each side. I have been doing the stabilizer from day one. Quick-start @ day one and I put 3 caps of PRIME in yesterday to eliminate the .05/1.0 Ammonia that the test shown yesterday. But, as I said. All levels are perfect now. Thanks KEV!!

@KaveManAquatics 3 жыл бұрын

@nehupiyu 3 жыл бұрын

Stress guard with prime are very effective, as soon as we put them in the water, the guys starting color up and ease their movement! I do take snap of the fish in the package whether they are dead, or, just playing dead! Or sometime swimming side ways or upside down. Side ways and uside down are most of the times due to stroke, and water temperature fluctuations! Putting those "temporarily sick" guys with full oxygenate with sponge filter is small tank (may be 10 gallons) will be most effective way to recover them fully, adding just a pinch of epsom salt in medical 10 Gallons tank will be most effective! Well, I use pinch of epsom salt, stress guard, and prime in half tank water and half fresh water in 10 Gallons medical tank do the trick most of the time. This is my way of saving and getting them back to life!! Your approach to save that fish was effective too. Just sharing my experience here Man, beautiful 210 gallons, I am keeping Flowerhorns and Parrots, oscars and other Cichlids in little than 100 Gallons, didn't venture to upgrade, but hey, looking your setup is very tempting! Hahahahhaa. Much appreciated your video

You don't pretreat your water ahead of time that's what I do I use a 32 gallon Rubbermaid garbage can. That's pre-treated with water. I plan on adding a second and third garbage can for all my tanks that way I have over 60 gallons pretreated at all times. But I've never used stress guard during a change that's a good idea. I use the prime and and I also put bacteria in the water to. And I keep a heater in my garbage can to keep it at the same temperature as my tank. But seachem is the best

Love the video, as usual. Got a few questions, what was that you used for the water change? Do clown loaches have the same function as plecos in a cichlid tank? Can you put Angels in with these African cichlids? I see you made a decision on your 75, smart.

@KaveManAquatics 3 жыл бұрын

It’s a vivosun pump and hose, links to both in the description. Clown loaches sift through the substrate and break loose any trapped detritus, plecos eat algae, good to have both. And no way, angels will get tore up with these boys.

Thank you for your videos. Just found you yesterday on a google search and am glad I did. A visit to the local aquarium store had me thinking I would never be able to pull off a tank again but your videos have simplified a lot for me. You are awesome. Probably a stupid question, but when I hadboth a salt and a fresh in a 29 gal and the fresh had cichlids mixed with 2 angels 22 YEARS AGO, I would do my "partial" when I vac'd the tank each week. Is that not the same thing? I generally had about 40% of my tank water gone by the time I got done vac'ing the tank and would then treat and refill with the new water. Is that not done anymore? I see you use a pump to do your partials, but this is probably because you have such a massive tank, too. I am thinking about getting a 175 with cichlids when I get back into it.

I see plenty of OBs in your tank and order. What's been your experience with them? I'm cycling a new 180g tank and wanted to start with peacocks only then cautiously venture into haps and OBs. I'd love to have OBs from jump, but only if safe. Also, what do you think of my general strategy? I kept mbuna before so I'm terrified of aggression. Thanks for all you do for the hobby boss.

@KaveManAquatics 3 жыл бұрын

Yea mbuna can be that way. Your strategy is a good one. Peacocks are the least aggressive. Overstocking helps with aggression as well as many other things...the OB’s really aren’t any more or less aggressive than anyone else. It’s kind of a shot in the dark. When you do get OB’s just get them a bit smaller than everyone else, so they’ll no their place at the bottom early on and not act so tough lol

@KaveManAquatics 3 жыл бұрын

Females can bring out great color in males...but they can also bring great problems. 1 or 2 females in a tank of mostly males can cause extreme aggression from all the males trying to be the dominant male. Usually if you want them to breed you would have 3-5 females for every male. Problem with that is the females don’t have any color, so nobody wants a tank like that, unless it’s specifically for breeding. In a main display usually it’s an all male tank to keep aggression down. And you still get plenty of color.

@winstonpratt604 3 жыл бұрын

Nope, The aggressor would still be alive...There's something else killing your fish, Could be disease or improper water conditions. The fish that were being bullied were overly stressed which can cause them to catch disease which then spread to everyone else.
