Got them on Saturday.

Wanted a Tiger and Albino Tiger, but the breeder's are saying Albino Tigers are becoming rarer by the day, and Red Albinos are the norm now.

So I wasn't prepared to wait for the odd chance of getting one later down the line, and took two Tigers different enough in colour and personality to be told apart.

These guys are tiny as you as you can see by the not so very good pics, but in very good health and very inquisitive, already learning to eat from my hand this evening.





Not much going on with decoration at this point in time, but will hopefully change that as soon as I have enough gravel to work with.



Dante on the left, Pandora on the right.

Nice oscars!

i'm so jealous, everyone's baby oscars have orange, but mine have none >< and there fins are front ventral fins are so long, mines have like little flappies

Nice baby oscars SauRon

cute little o's sauron

seriously cute!!!

So the one little guy has some serious signs of Ick, magically over night.


Just goes to show, it doesn't matter how careful you are with the eye, there's no way of knowing those okes are in the water.

increase the temp to 30 deg celcius, and put some pure salt,
and put some air bubbles at the discharge point.

Yup already did that this morning, although didn't want to force to 30 instantly.

Hopefully it just went up to about 28 or so.

Hoping it has settled by the time I get home.

28 would be fine...abrupt increase is also bad.
salt= 1 tablespoon per 15 gal will be okey. other
do it at 1tbs/10gal. make sure you have plenty of
bubbles. high temp depletes oxygen in tank

Yeah I've left the airpump on 24/7 while pushing up the temp, normally I switch it off at night.

raise temp to 86 old money and add one tsb per 5 gals of pure salt keep it there for a week and your ick will be gone my friend
