    I got a free 29 Gallon tank and want to start breeding again

    Just like the title says. I got an open 29 gallon tank. I used to breed Kribensis Pulcher in the tank but my pair died off. Right now I have two of the last remaining offspring. One Male and One Female. The problem is that they didn't pair up and resort to hiding from each other. I am ready to...

    New to keeping Macmasteri

    I am getting 6 juvenile A. Macmasteri in a couple of weeks. I have a copy of Romer's book and have done a search and read the posts about the subject. Is there any other info I might need to know about these guys? I plan on feeding bbs, possibly New Life Spectrem pellets, and occasionally...

    How many A. Macmasteri in a tank?

    I came home from work yesterday and my Cac was dead. So now I have to prepare the tank and get ready for some new dwarfs. I might miss out on the Macmasteri since I want some time to get the water parameters the way I like it before getting any fish. I will let you guys know if and when I get...

    How many A. Macmasteri in a tank?

    Now that I have an idea a nother setback shows up. My A. Cac. is acting weird again. I had to use my quarantine tank to isolate him and see what the problem is. Last time he was not eating and I took care to feed him better quality foods and he rebounded. I guess there might be to much...

    How many A. Macmasteri in a tank?

    I have an opportunity to buy tankbred A.Macmasteri for a great price but they come in lots of 6. If I got six, what size tank would be the most appropriate for them to be in? I have a 29 gallon or 55 gallon community tank that I could use for them. The 29 would be a species only tank and I would...

    What is wrong with my A. cacatuoides?

    Its been a couple of days and I can see some improvement in his behavior. He is out in the tank more and is aggressive at feeding time. I used a continuous hatcher and supplement it with NLS small Cichlid pellets. His color on his flanks are darker and he is starting to fill out again...

    What is wrong with my A. cacatuoides?

    I'll start hatching BBS today. Thanks Ted. He seems a little more active since I first posted. He spends a little more time swimming around the tank and looks to be searching for food.

    What is wrong with my A. cacatuoides?

    Thanks for the response Apistomaster So should I just euthanize him then? I also noticed that one of my Tetras has a bent spine. If I euthanize would that help prevent the spread of the disease to my other fish?

    What is wrong with my A. cacatuoides?

    What is wrong with my A. cacatuoides? note big Pics I have a male A. Cacatuoides in a 55 US gallon tank that seems to hide all the time. He has missed feeding time and only really eats frozen brine shrimp and frozen blood worms. All other types of food, Flake, pellet, Freezed dried are ignored...

    Hi

    Hi everyone. I've been on for a while and decided to finally say hi. I have kept some dwarfs before and now I have a pair of kribs. Hopefully I can find some more dwarfs and work with these little gems more intensively.
