idk the class of this so sorry if its in the wrong forum or thread but umm okay what is the care for a leaf fish a 4inch leaf fish like can it go in a 10 gallon well planted tank? with a clawless crayfish (uhhh it has no claws except small feeder)
well i was talking about the amazonian one and south american one ><iamntbatman said:If you're talking about the spotted African Leaf Fish, it would need a tank 29g or more since it gets to be about 6" in size. It also prefers a densely planted aquarium as it can be shy, and shouldn't be kept with any fish smaller than itself. I think it might eat the crayfish.
uhh well since winters comming i put my african clawed frog in my 10g tank with my moms pleco (she hasnt have a heater) its temporairly but after we get her a heater what could i put with the frog? could i do a gourami?(hes already at max size)okiemavis said:I keep indian mudskippers and I can tell you that a 10G tank will not be sufficient they need to stake out their territories but also are social and best kept in groups. A 10G is not large enough to create individual land and underwater territories. They are very easy to feed (mine will even eat flake), but that's about the only easy thing. You need to keep the air in the tank very humid, keep them from escaping, etc.
Also, when your crayfish sheds his exoskeleton he will grow his claws back- keep this in mind for any fish you add to the tank.
i just want to put a fish with it...frogman6 said:do u mean the dwarf variety or the regular ones...yes the dwarfs you can fit up to 4 in a ten gallon but for the regular ones you can only house one in a ten gallon and depending on the size of guorami he may try to eat him...i have had quite a bit of these in the past and one of mine almost ate a full grown betta
its confusing...Deku said:i just want to put a fish with it...frogman6 said:do u mean the dwarf variety or the regular ones...yes the dwarfs you can fit up to 4 in a ten gallon but for the regular ones you can only house one in a ten gallon and depending on the size of guorami he may try to eat him...i have had quite a bit of these in the past and one of mine almost ate a full grown betta
also i decided i like this ram...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYxFcoSjkXI&feature=related and i wanted to know what species it is (common name) and if i can house it with a african clawed frog? i heard these fish could be housed togetherDeku said:its confusing...Deku said:i just want to put a fish with it...frogman6 said:do u mean the dwarf variety or the regular ones...yes the dwarfs you can fit up to 4 in a ten gallon but for the regular ones you can only house one in a ten gallon and depending on the size of guorami he may try to eat him...i have had quite a bit of these in the past and one of mine almost ate a full grown betta
once i had a goldfish ( he was diff) and he and the frog got a longiamntbatman said:You really shouldn't house any fish with an African clawed frog. The frog will eat any fish that can fit in its large mouth.
Now, if it's an African dwarf frog, that's another story.
once again i do not own a dwarf species just a clawed species....its fully grown...maybe i should just drop the whole a 10gallon fish tank and just put either a tarantula or a redheaded desert centipede or a snake of some sort(of course a small snake)okiemavis said:Once ADF's get older, they will attack and kill fish. I think they can be fine when they're quite young, which is probably why it worked out.
yes i just found out mines a climbing perch aka leopard bush fish. though why do they call it "climbing perch" whats the climbing part for?Back on leaffish for a second. Word has it they positively require live foods. That's the leaffish proper, South American and Asian, not the climbing perches.
hahahah xD what retard said that? xD lol wow im just dropping to the floor and laughing my butt off xD this is rich xD hahaha mutant catfish xD one day if i go down there xD ill go to the department of fishery xD and mock them xD lol (anyone who works there sorry xD this is just too rich) lolI think the climbing part is probably bunk. I read somewhere years and years ago that they could drag themselves out of the water and move short distances over land on their pectoral fins. I think someone got the ability to breathe atmospheric oxygen (like all labyrinth fish) confused with the ability to move about on land. The morphology is all wrong for that (though I could be wrong, it would surprise me if I were). Also, IIRC, I read this around the same time that people were going bug---k about clarias "walking catfish" "Invading" Florida and eating small dogs. No doubt they rode about the countryside on Cane Toads. Like I said, Bunk.
