"Die Möglichkeit" - Demonbreedr's 29gal - Setup 9/23/09

demonbreedr16 · 10-06-2009, 05:38 AM

Haha, goldfish are greatness!!

I'm officially past my limit to add another in...these 2 have hooked up and are doing great. I'm worried they team up against a newbie...

I don't think they'll have problems with Weather Loaches though...So, I'll have 5 fish in this tank...

demonbreedr16 · 10-11-2009, 07:38 PM

I've been kinda annoyed to look at this tank recently. Deciding that HAS to stop and "Illusions"[10gal] only having 1 Fry into it [moved him to a 2.5gal]...I consolidated the 2.

It's got the filter/light/heater/airstone/thermometer/gravel/plants/and old fish from the 10gal into it now...[7 Tetras].

Since this will be the only tank that is setup when I move, I want it to be the best one!

It's going to have a 36W T5 Fixture & a Rena Filstar xP1 to replace the 2 Whisper Filters. Substrate is inert black gravel with some river rocks [I put half in the 55gal], Decor is Driftwood with a pretty Rainbow Rock?...and Plants will just be kinda random as I can find them...but hopefully, mostly, low light plants. I'm trying to make this a very nice, low tech tank.

Ugh...these goldies are REALLY starting to tick me off. They have to rescape MY rescaping! LOL

--- ERASED...This tank is staying alive!

demonbreedr16 · 10-17-2009, 01:16 AM

Since getting serious with this tank, it's been THRIVING!! C. Balansae has thrown out about 4 leaves, Hygros...growing shoots like CRAZY...even the Temple plant has grown about 1-2"!! I ended putting Panda back in the pond because she got Fin Rot BAD. a 29gal Tank is no match for a ~300gal Pond I guess.

Anyways, there is one Tetra left who I can net out without ripping up plants...and the Ryukin's grown a ton. No pics yet because all the ones I took, suck.

Future plans for this tank are to add in some more plants [got some Jungle Vals coming in as an RAOK] and a few new Goldfish/Loaches...

BTW...this tank is my baby and has me Re-inspired even though I lost 1 Goldfish and another got sick...Both were sick from the start so, I don't count them.

demonbreedr16 · 10-21-2009, 02:01 AM

I did a slight rescape and probably a 35% WC...and am really happy with it! Only addition really is 3x Jungle Vals and I took out a few plants for the 10gal [probably those plants are for the 55 when I redo it].

demonbreedr16 · 10-22-2009, 06:30 AM

Sorry for the promise of px then no px...I promise I'll get some up soon. Tank looks great! I'm going to pickup 2x new T8 Bulbs and possibly 1-2 new goldfish...but I doubt it. I'm kinda hoping to get my 10 stable too...it's a MESS! Oh, something worth mentioning, this tank has the table all to it's self now....but it'll probably get it's own stand and a 55 might go where it was...All these tanks are jumbled until my 2 rooms are fixed up & ready to go...The only tanks that aren't "Mine" are the 20gL #1...planted community & 2.5gal MiniBow betta tank...both of those are my moms.

demonbreedr16 · 10-22-2009, 06:39 PM

UGH...I'm having some uploading problems today...but the few px I did manage to get up to my PB account I'll post...still have a lot more to upload but it's a start!:

Tank

Ooooo!! Java Fern is growing!

Ryukin

JakeJ · 10-22-2009, 08:46 PM

I like the new plants and gravel! It will look really good when the plants grow in. Out of curiosity (I know nothing about goldfish) what tempurature do you keep this tank at?

demonbreedr16 · 10-22-2009, 08:55 PM

The tank is anywhere between 76-79 degrees Fahrenheit...and thanks for the comment. I'm lovin' this tank since I did the changes. I'm thinking about adding a few more bags of that black gravel and then putting a few of the river rock....rocks in...Most are in the 55gal but some are sitting in the empty 29gal...

JakeJ · 10-22-2009, 08:57 PM

Thanks!

demonbreedr16 · 10-23-2009, 07:27 PM

Well, I've been considering ALL options for this tank and I think I've got a set idea. I'm thinking about moving my goldfish into a 46gal Bowfront...That would mean that this tank would be free. Well, the fish & inverts from the 10gal [Consider that tank as more of a grow-out/QT tank then a show tank now] would move in here...so that would mean that this tank would house:

1x Male Betta Albimarginata
7x Axelrodi Rasboras
7x Galaxy Rasboras
4x Zebra Rasboras
4x Phoenix Rasboras
7x Tiger Endlers
1x Bamboo Shrimp
2x Tangerine Shrimp
2x Red Cherry Shrimp
2x Yellow Shrimp
2x Pearl Blue Shrimp
2x Crystal Black Shrimp
2x Black Tiger Shrimp

When I get the 46 Bow, I'll start up a new journal for it and rename this tank...but, now, this is going to be my smallest tank!

demonbreedr16 · 10-26-2009, 06:58 AM

Update 10/26/09; 12 days before my birthday [I think? lol...I hate #'s!], this tank is really thriving....all the baby crypts have grown new leaves/root systems, adult crypts are thriving...Hygros [Sunset & Green] are both growing like the weeds they are!

Plans for plants have changed...slightly... Red Foxtail will inhabit this tank in the back in between the plants...I'll be on the look out for several crypts again [Red Wendtii 'Red', 'Tropica', & 'Green', Parva, &, Petchii] along with an Anubias var. Nana 'Petite', then some Dwarf Hairgrass & E. Tennellus 'Micro'. Oh yeah, if I can find them C. Natans [chose this one over the other...because frankly, it's cool and I don't see it that often in other tanks!] & Aponogeton Crispus will live in here too! Can you see where my plant addiction is going? It's M[ultiple]P[lant]S[yndrome]! LOL

Lighting will change to T5's and stocking will be just the 3 Goldfish...Co2 will be added soon, and hopefully, this tank will be a weed fest! I'm debating on NOT moving anyone out and leaving perefect-ness ALONE! lol

demonbreedr16 · 10-27-2009, 03:03 AM

I could say ALL kinds of bad words right now [I am in real life] but my beautiful Ozealot Sword is completely gone! ****!!! Even the one in the 55gal rotted into nothing-ness! the thing that really p*ss*s me off about that, is that's 20$ that just vanished! PLUS! They are my favorite kind of swords...all the others fail in comparison. I don't even really like the Green Ozealot compared to the Normals.

JakeJ · 10-27-2009, 03:07 AM

Its like paying $15 for Java ferns, the easiest plant to keep, and haveing the Petsmart "expert" telling you could nurse them back to health. Then a month later haveing a few riozomes left! Sorry about the swords man!

demonbreedr16 · 10-27-2009, 03:56 AM

I feel like such a plant failure. I can't even keep a stupid sword alive. But NOW the Java Fern is growing again! Ugh, these plants are soo picky!! I'm thinking if the plants live that are going to Funkyfish, I'm going to send you 2 C. Pontederiifolias. I can keep them alive and thriving which makes me feel alittle better. lol
