It was not your computer I put it on wrong
-
oh, ok. it looks good though! what is the blue stuff on the back? cardboard?
-
When you say 'new 6 foot tank', Do you mean set up, like over Easter? & all those fish added over Easter?
-
Sooooooo blue <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->

It is not cardboard it is the backing stuff you buy from pet barn
I like it blue makes the fish stand out -
I had all the fish in a 3ft but needed to upgrade so I set it up today and put the fish in from the 3ft
-
Is it mainly set up for breeding your peppermints? Or for all of the fish?
Not a big fan of blue backgrounds or multcoloured gravels either. -
wait so your saying you only just set up the tank today? prior to adding all livestock you did not properly cycle the tank?
anyhow nice fish -

I did not cycle the tank properly but I put most of the water from the 3ft in the 6ft so that will help and today when I got out of bed all the fish are still alive <!-- s:dance2: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dancingdog.gif" alt=":dance2:" title="dance2" /><!-- s:dance2: --> <!-- s:dance2: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dancingdog.gif" alt=":dance2:" title="dance2" /><!-- s:dance2: --> <!-- s:dance2: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dancingdog.gif" alt=":dance2:" title="dance2" /><!-- s:dance2: --> <!-- s:dance2: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dancingdog.gif" alt=":dance2:" title="dance2" /><!-- s:dance2: --> -

It is mainly a community tank but when I want to breed fish I just take them out and put them into another tank. The peppermint are in their so they will grow because they are only about 4-5cm long need them to grow befor I can breed them.
I LOVE THE BLUE BACKGROUNG AND STONES -
Not the size of the Peps it's the age. They breed from around 18-20 months onwards.
I'm surprised there's that many fish in there with that BGK -

The BGK does not do anything to the fish unless I have neons then he eats them. <!-- s:laugh3: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/PMSL.gif" alt=":laugh3:" title="laugh3" /><!-- s:laugh3: --> -
I wish I got a 6ft tank for Easter!

Black ghost knifes are predatory mate at night too
not great ones... but still predators
but i wouldn't find it surprising if your rasboras disappeared -
