| alright. another question from me. i know its been a while since i posted..... alright i got a new breeding pair of angel fish plus some fry. trying something new.... so these angels are in my main tank right now. the fry are in there as well for the time being.
would it be ok to raise these fry in the 20 gal breeding tanks for my pleco or should i get a different tank for them all together?
right now i have a 29 gal angel fish breeding tank. the fry can go into the 20 gal i figure. then when i think they are big enough to threaten the BN fry i will move them to the 60 gal in my front room... let me know if this plan sounds good or not...
right now in the 20 gal i have guppies. but i plan to get ride of all the guppies.. tonate them to a local school. | |

| sounds like a plan, as long as the filtration system is up to it. remember that bristlenose grow out tanks run a huge bio-load and adding too it may cause issues | |
