We currently have a 29 gallon. It's running great, but I'm itching to make it bigger. Assuming I figure everything else out, how do you make the transition from one tank to the next?
I don't really have a lot of room to have another tank just sitting there cycling until it's ready.
Anyone have a similar situation?
The idea: I set up a 150 gallon heavily planted Amazon style aquarium.
Stocking plan:
After the aquarium is cycled and the plants show some decent growth to provide cover, hideaways, and brakes in line of sight, I want to add a bunch of calm community fish.
I'm thinking a large 20 plus group of Amber tetras,
A large school of rummy nose tetras vs. Harlequin resboras vs. A school of neon tetras?
Maybe two schools of Cory catfish
10 oto catfish
100 cherry shrimp.
10 Amano shrimp.
A Dozen narite snails.
Maybe a few rabbit snails
Some kuli loaches for a surprise,
But the true kicker, I want to have Like maybe 6 really nice looking male betta fish. Maybe double female betta fish coming from the same brood?
Disclaimer: I understand there's going to be squawbles, maybe even fights that will require rehoming the betta fish until I find one or more that are chill enough to do their own thing. But I'm curious if this has ever been done and I just haven't found someone say yes or no. I feel like 150 gallons has to be big enough for each betta fish to feel like they have their own little thing and just kind of keep to themselves. Surely there are other fish like cichlids that over time chill out and start to work.
This is not a tomorrow plan, this is a plan when approved, may take upwards of like 6 months until it comes to fruition.
Asalaam alikum, I'm first generation afghan American making my first trip to Afghanistan. Inshallah, I am trying to come to Kabul in August with my wife and 3 young kids. Its for a family wedding and trying to make the most of it.
What should I bring?
What will be good to see?
I'll have lots of fun laws there and I'm sure they will help, but Reddit is usually good for stuff I didn't think about
My wife and I are about to pray Asr. My 5-year-old son wants to join, and my 2-year-old obviously wants to be included.
As I say the Takbeer to start, My 2-year-old repeats after me loudly like always. So now my 5-year-old is all giggly. He was still able to control himself.
When we bend down to ruku, my 2-year-old farts. Now my 5-year-old can't hold back his giggling, but still trying really hard.
We're able to finish the rakah, and stand back up while holding our laughs in.
When we go down for the second Ruku, my 2-year-old farts even louder, causing my wife to start giggling and trying really hold herself together.
By the time we sit down in the second rakah, my 2-year-old lets another fart out, and now everyone has to stop and restart everything.
It was a great day to be a dad. Alhamdulillah.
About to board a Cruise from Baltimore to Orlando, Miami, CocoCay, and Bahama.
Any recommendations for families at the ports we will hit?
Would love to hear what others enjoyed?
Thank you in advance.
