Im going to attempt a new frechwater tank as I have finally found a frech fish other then piranhas that are interesting, the biogenicly engineered glofish is red and is a mutant zebra danio, scientists took the fluorescent gene from a jelly fish and placed it in the danios GNA creating a so called "frankinfish", I want to set up a 5.5 gallon tank, my friend is going to sell me fluorescent sand and rock he got from a quarry in north jersey, im also going to put in some glow in the dark plants maybe and 6 of these fish as you can only buy 6 at a time, its $50 for the fish shipped, fisrt question is has any one ever kept these, second question is my lighting on this tank, saposidly the higher the light the more they glow during the day plus since they are literally fluorescent id like to put actinics to really make it show, im thinking one actinic and one 10,000k daytime, maybe two actinics and them at night two UV bulbs whcih will make them and the fluorescent in the rock and sand plus the glowing green plants all shine amazingly, I might put this all in the 8 gallon they sell online at liveaquaria but that would be harder to make a hood for, any ideas?
