    P. Taeniatus ID

    The differentiating feature between Nigeria Green and Nigeria Yellow, in my experience, is the color of the males cheek. The Nigeria Yellow will have more yellow highlights in the fins too, but that is highly variable.

    P. Taeniatus ID

    My first impression is that they are from Nigeria. They are pretty washed out in these pictures though, and the colors in the fins should become more intense once they settle in.

    Any experience with Repashy foods?

    I have A. caetae, A. beanschi, A. sp. rotpunkt, A. sp. blackchin (a couple adult females) and some wild A. bitaeniata, and all of them eat the Repashy meat pie, community plus and shrimp souffle. All of my west African cichlids eat it, and so do the two Nannacara sp. I have at the moment (N...

    Deal of the Day

    I suspect that the text color was changed. THere are lots of options. Pick the wrong one, and it can be hard to read. Jeff should use hot pink!!

    No more adverts..

    I think that offering a membership to access an ad-free skin is a good idea, and I will participate as well. I would also like to ad a bit of historical perspective to this discussion.... Apistogramma.com has almost always had advertisements, especially in the six or so years that I owned it...

    Pelmatachromis Buttokofferi Questions

    I have a new group of these fish too. Pelmatochromis is an interesting genus. I belongs to the tribe Pelmatochromines which only contains two genera. There are only four described species in the genus Pelmatochromis. There are some scientists who think that they should be moved into the...

    Ro unit, Rodi unit, how many stages

    I agree with Mike... unless you have a special need to remove silicates or other very small ions that may get through a membrane (reefers need this) a three-stage unit is all you need. I suggest buying as large a capacity unit as you can. A 25 gallon per day unit may cost $100 less than a 90...

    Gues a hemichromis

    I suspect that it is a H. guttatus or a derivative of that species. The solid red body color (rather than a split pattern between red and orange/brown/yellow), blue spots (rather than lines) and faded lateral line spot are clues that it is H. guttatus.

    Biotope/biotype tankmates for P. t. "dehane"

    The small streams that we collected Dehane in here not very rich in fish fauna. Barbus camptacanthus was the onl cyprinid (and they get large). Epiplatys infrafasciatus was present. No small barbs or tetras.

    can somebody ID this pelvichromis he came in on wild krib shipment

    The fish is definitely P. taeniatus from Nigeria. The cheek will define color. I have had both green and yellow, and they both bred true. Yellows have more yellow in other parts of the body and fins, but the greens are pretty much a yellow-less fish (males) with a green cheek. Females are...

    New forum software

    Josh.... the vBulletin forum had two or three skins and users had the option to choose the one they wanted. One was the standard subsilver, the other a white background and the third the black.

    New forum problems

    A couple things.... I can start a thread, like this one, but when I try to post in the same thread I get a permissions error (which is why started this new thread instead of posting in the one I started a few minutes ago). There seem to be a lot of missing threads. For example, the...
