You can coat the pvc pipe with silicone and stick gravel to it. So it becomes a rock cave. or paint it black. DIY~

Cool idea. But i removed them and leave just one log shaped ornament with diameter wide enough to fit few of the at once.no chance for similar incident, i think.haha

Edit: pics as promisedddd

Well..i frequently visit different lfs to look at what theyre selling, especially in seremban.found this lfs in lobak area which i never been to and quite surprised to find a nice variety of fish.and i saw that delhezi when it was small.aas i already has a pretty one, i couldnt get more cause im the kind of person who prefers not to have 2 of same species haha.now that it died, i remembered the lfs and was somehow relieved that it was still there.so just bought lah..

No plecos as they will suck your bichirs slime coat off. It is a matter of when, not which pleco. As soon as your pleco get a taste of ur bichir byebye bichir. You can get some otos. But the bichirs will eat it.

If you wanna keep your aquarium free of algae, do more water changes and do weekly maintenance. Just get a sponge or hard plastic card and scrub the algae off. By buying plecos and otos u r just avoiding the main cause. Which is the excess of nutrients in the water. You can also add more plants to compete with algae for nutrients.

But really its water changes and weekly maintanence. I do weekly water changes on mine and everytime water change time, i clean the sides. Crystal clear.

I agree with both u and genie as there are 2 school of thoughts on this.one group of people say that it actually depends on individual pleco as not all will suck on bichirs.i myself had a pleco kept together with bichirs, caught it sucking on them few times but never continuously.it eventually grew big and fat, not from eating slime coat nor algae lol.but kept on stealing my hikari cichlid gold floating type loool.i gave it away to a friend not cause of hazard to bichirs but cause it didnt serve its function.
And then theres the other group who strictly believe not to mix them. Play safe is better i suppose.

Regarding weekly water change, i totally agree as i witness this myself.but sometimes i get a little bit busier than usual and missed it smile.gif thats why i was asking for u guys' opinion or maybe experience.woot

A simple species to rear, as hardy as any other arowana. Smaller than silvers, they're pretty rare and generally do not get drop eye like silvers do. A great pick.

Nice general overview.i think genie would be poisoned enough dy haha.

Btw i do like the oscar, been keeping tiger oscar, albino oscar since like 2008.i got this red one when my tank was empty and it was beautiful in lfs tank (keeping in mind that i would have to let it go later).oscars are nice but for me not agressive or territorial enough.easily pushed around by a flowerhorn, and almost all cichlids i had before

Antzz moving back to klang valley?
