Knight freshwater gobies cloud of small fish and white?

Just went to the fish store where trust i favorite type of fish there he has never b / s me before I can tell, he knows what I'm aggressive and usually fish about me says that if a fish I'm seeing is a bad choice for my tank. I liked the Knight gobies, and said it would be with the Zebra Danio and clouds of white, said it would be nice. She had five white clouds were healthy when I put the two knight gobies in the tank. after 6 hours of them in the tank that I am in two white clouds. my gues is that the Knight gobies are eating white clouds. are in a 24g tank with a small Mollie, two small flying foxes, two Corydoras panda, the two zebra danio and now two white clouds. Knight gobies are eating clouds white and if I can avoid How to eat the other fish. Should I take it back?

How big are the white clouds? Knight gobies will eat small fish, but the Knights only reach about 3 "so I would say that is your white clouds are small (should become about 2" and adults) are hiding very well, have a kind of goby that is not a gentleman, or what they ate: http://badmanstropicalfish.com/profiles/profile98.html Your choices will be to use a tank divider, getting a separate tank, or take it back and explain what happened. In addition, the knights are territorial, so we expect having a proper size tank and / or a male and female roach.

Argentina Fly Fishing – Rivers

The sea Trout Fishing in southern Argentina is legendary and for many the Rio Grande clear example of this. Situated on Earth del Fuego (Land of Fire), is as remote and isolated an area as you can imagine. Apart from fishing for other lodges there is little in the way of human settlements with sheep is the main inhabitant of this part of the world.

Santa Cruz River is over 380kms long from its source in the huge glacier-fed lakes with the ocean Argentinos Atlantic Ocean in Santa Cruz. The Santa Cruz is a great and powerful movement via blue and inexorably across the dry brown landscape of the ranch and Patagonian semi-desert.

The Rio Grande

The Rio Grande needs little by way of introduction, with an average of 10 pounds of weight and fish samples caught over 30 pounds each season. Although the winds in this part of the world can be strong so are the sea trout in the same proportion. Almost all pools can be covered well with a rod with one hand, while the use of a two-handed rod is an advantage. Guests have access to almost All Fishing in the first Rio Grande, either in the upper, middle or less.

Kau Tapen Fishing Lodge

Kau Tapen was the first fishing lodge that was established in the Rio Grande and occupied a position situated in the middle stretch of river.

Best times to go

The season runs from December to April, with the runs of fish to be held everywhere. sea trout enter in the river during all these months, depending mainly on local conditions. During the months of December and January the Rio Grande is at its highest level in water tend to fall further in March, although an increase in the river can come at any time during the season.

Santa Cruz River

The unique and special about Santa Cruz is the fact that between 1906-1909 the steelhead rainbow trout, McCloud River in California (now banned by the Shasta Dam) were transplanted and forgotten by the pioneers and forgotten unknown. The result of this unselfish activity is nothing less than a modern phenomenon, a huge rainbow trout self-sufficient within iris of the Atlantic in a water channel slightly touched by human hands.

Until very recently fishing in Santa Cruz has been limited to the estuary area and absolutely huge no effort to explore the more than 380 kilometers of the river from its source in Lagos Argentinos near the border with Chile. Throughout the vast area High River rainbow trout are bright chrome 6 to 20 pounds, ready to strike hard with all the traditional fly fishing methods, including the volar surface – given the often the nature of water and clouds.

The Santa Cruz River Glacier is running at a rapid pace through a high desert environment. This is emphatically not a river for the beginner fly fisherman or without experience. While wading and fishing from shore is less intimidating than they first appear, no should underestimate the power and the challenge of fishing for large rainbow sea run in this environment.
