Anyone into Fishkeeping/Aquariums?

well im trying to figure out how my male opaline gourami has ended up on the kitchen floor, all lids are on, only come off for feeding, haven't done any maintainence for about a week and a half, and he went missing on friday, just found him in the kitchen this evening

Also do khuli loaches attack other fish, and devour them? a sucking catfish is gone, and so is my preggers rainbow shark, shit only started going missing and getting fucked up since they went in there.

I thought Khuli loaches were peaceable little guys. But I used to hate catching the little bastards when I worked in an aquarium shop. Freakin' impossible.

Also, I'd be checking the floor for that shark. If the gourami jumped, chances are the shark found an opening, too .

i have, they are gone. Someone has eaten them

man kulhil loaches are like thinner than a pencil and 4cm long,

your rainbow shark is probably the most aggressive thing in the tank,

your fish might be dying and other eating them when they are dead but no murder would be going on.

i was thinking the male rainbow has lost it, gone on a rampage, and then khuli loaches and snails, have cleaned up the mess

yeh thats why i said largish!! my boss has some that are about 10cm long now!! big for khuli loaches. well biggest iv seen anyways.

[driftke70]

note what i said earlier about the outlet for the filter going into the undergravel filter to push water out from under the gravel and stop crap settling on it, have another filter lurking behind those plants to pick up the heavy stuff, and the intake for the canister picks up all the fine stuff and keeps biological under wraps.

lol dude i know the difference between clown loaches and khuli loaches.

thats a big oscar for a small tank!!
