    Taeniacara candidi with bent spines

    They mostly get BBS… same as all my other fry and fish. I agree it could be a one off and seems likely the case with the numbers of deformed fish I got. It would be good to work out if it was because of environmental reasons or genetics. I’ll probably end up breeding with the single male I have...

    dicrossus sp rio negro

    Hi Bourinite, I know this was a long time ago, I was just wondering what size tank you had them in and what sex ratios or numbers you had? I have some D.foirni, but they look slightly different to yours. So perhaps yours were D.warzelii. Anyway I have 2 males and 3 females but I’ve had to remove...
