R25 is waaaay too much. Do you have other LFS options? They've always been more expensive than Neons but that is ridiculous. R100 for four small...
I'm going to chip in and support Cardinals here, better fish in pretty much every way IMO.
The only really viable options, for a tank that small, that I can think of are fish such as White Cloud Mountain Minnows, or some of the Danio...
Personally I am doing a BSc in Biodiversity and Ecology at Stellenbosch University as a background with which to hopefully get into freshwater...
I've never had this problem, since I bombard people with information the second they enter my fishroom (which used to be my bedroom, and is now my...
Fish hardly ever act precisely as they are "meant to", take for example my Shovelnose which shoals with my Arowana and stays active all day. Most...
I often catch my own fish at LPSs. I've luckily never come across an attendant who wasn't willing to catch a specific fish for the times that they...

Sounds like it should do fine, in a tank that size :) When they all get to a decent size that tank will look great.
Hey Doomfin, That is indeed a Tiger Shovelnose Catfish, what length is this one so far? If it is over a year old, it could potentially be...
Well I've been monitoring him for any signs of distress or damage but he seems fine, he hardly notices when the pleco does it. Haven't seen it...
Thanks, I will call you tomorrow :D
About the water conditions: things are probably good if your fish are breeding :) Are the discus your only cichlids in the tank?
I have sent a private message :)
I've had some breed in a community tank, moved them to a breeding tank and tried everything and they wouldn't breed for me. I had a pH of around...
Great, from tomorrow I have a non-fishkeeper looking after my fish for a week. I did waterchanges today at least.
