it can sometimes take a few generations of line breeding to get true throwing albino's. i have a pair that I got from Ted last year, they spawn constantly! I got my breeder points for them, so now I dont really try to raise the fry, they usually get eaten quite fast. However, every single fry...
I have not found the vinegar eels to be a great choice for cichlids in general. I have 2 cultures going, and the only thing that every now and then touches them is some of my livebearers, in the tank the eunotus came out of. I found live blood worms to be a great treat. Even with their larger...
I am going to be receiving several D. Filamentosus next week, and am wondering if anyone has kept these guys with success? I plan on keeping them just like I would an apisto...soft acid water, low lights, plants, driftwood and lots of hidey-holes. I've been wanting to keep these guys for a...
i need the points though! lol, they've spawned before, but the fry didnt last in the tank, it was too desnely planted to remove them and they just dissapeared. once they hit 30 days, they get verrified, grown out some more and sold, parents inlcuded. my goal is to get my master breeder award...
after reading a few threads, i always get the urge to go look at my fish! much to my amazement, when I looked in one of my 2 eunotus tanks, I noticed both females black and yellow. nothing new, they seem to be in breeding dress more often then not. what really got me, was the male was out and...
this is also how my gibbiceps have breed a few times as well, kind of. the first time was right after i moved from my old place to the new one, so the tank was basically torn down and put back together. i used 25% of the old water, arranged the set up differently and put in new water. wasn't...
I didnt go to RMCA cause I blew a tire the day before and didnt have a ride lol, I actually saw that someone was speaking about dwarfs and was very upset I couldn't make it. I'm a CAS member as well and I'll be there on friday. I'm the younger guy with the tattoos who is always hanging around...
well this makes lucky #4 for my pair of gibbiceps! I lost all but 2 fish total from all 3 spawns. I didnt even know they existed until I was tearing apart the tank for a move and boom, 2 little fish just hiding. Looks to be about 25-30 eggs or so. I'm pretty sure they were laid last night. Not...
First, more corys! They're a shoaling fish, so try to add 4-5 more to the group you have now. Maybe some geophagus? They live a decent amount of time. Look at it this way, VERY BASICALLY lol (screw fine print, need bold!) the bigger a cichlid is, the longer it'll live. Uaru would be a nice...
Lots of info on fish in the trade call for a pH of 7.0 just cause its middle of the road. Central American cichlids like hard water, and I keep mine at 80
