    5 foot biotopish!

    So this morning I came down to find that my Copella compta had spawned. There was a male guarding his eggs on top of a piece of bogwood that is arranged to have a flat shelf about 2cm below the surface of the water. I also noticed my bronze cories were swimming all over and then they began to...

    5 foot biotopish!

    So, I moved house. Sorting the tank was a nightmare! It still houses the frogs, but the splash tetras have gone elsewhere. The discus are in another tank with the splash tetras, Farlowella (which have taken to latching onto the discus) and a few others, including green neons. My A. barlowi are...

    other non aggressive dwarf cichlid

    On that note, when I moved house I lost my female D. filamentosus female and turns out the last male had gone already. A shame as they were lovely fish and was going to breed them.

    I forget and take my lovely Manchester soft water for granted sometimes!

    Best get breeding all these lovely rare fish that may get wiped out! Not to mention the amphibians and inverts.

    5 foot biotopish!

    Here's a video I took earlier. Not a lot has happened fish-wise, but am moving house in a few weeks so it'll be fun shifting this lot, then setting it all back up again!

    5 foot biotopish!

    Here are a few more pics from the tank. Not great quality though. The angelfish are at the late wriggler stage again, A. barlowi still haven't succeeded with fry (but then it is a community tank) and the twig catfish are still munching on anything they can! No frog spawn yet either! Also some...

    5 foot biotopish!

    I really should take some fish pictures. Well here's my female A. barlowi - poor picture, but she was holding. She's back to normal mouth movements today so I suspect the fry are gone. Also, when I was cleaning the filter inlet someone came to watch!

    Apistogramma panduro biotope

    Tom describes Crenuchus spilurus as being ubiquitous and has photos of them from the surrounding area. I keep these with my A. panduro in a 3 ft tank and have little problems. I also keep Corydoras pygmaeus, Paracheirodon innesi, Nannostomus eques and Copella compta with them. The female can be...

    5 foot biotopish!

    Got two more frogs the other day. So, here are a couple of pics, one asleep on an amazon sword leaf and one on a bromeliad leaf.

    5 foot biotopish!

    Thanks - to be honest, the Sarracenia was added as seen in a garden centre. I thought they were tropical and didn't do my research. I think that in the future I may try them again in a set up with small anurans that benefit from a cooler winter. One day, when I win the lottery... Oh and congrats...

    5 foot biotopish!

    They split up just before dusk last night. The male has been out now since I turned the rain on. May play some youtube clips of mating males to get him in the mood.

    5 foot biotopish!

    Latest is that I found some rigid piping for cheap and used it for my rain system. This was yesterday - ran it for a few hours and after lights out this happened. Been like this ever since!
