    Vintage metal framed aquariums -- free

    For anyone located near Arizona I have 4 vintage metal framed aquariums that have had the old glass replaced and resealed. Two 10 gallon, a 15 long, and a standard 15 gallon.

    Help with ID

    I think you are right Frank. The shape of the caudal also suggests norberti. It is very possible that the picture of the Peru trip where I collected norberti some how got in with my Venezuela pictures. Very much appreciate your conclusion.

    Help with ID

    I can't remember if I have ask for help with this fish before. If I did I did not write it down. For some reason I have only this one picture. It is of a fish I collected in the Orinoco Delta region in 1997.

    Brazilian wild caught Rams

    So I couldn't stand it. I saw these Rams that were said to be wild caught from Brazil. The seller couldn't tell me anything more than that they were suppose to be wild caught from Brazil. Needed to see them so I purchased some. They are small and I don't think fully colored up yet but I can't...

    Macmasteri in Metaframe tank

    I share your feeling toward Metaframe aquariums. I have a number of them that I rehabed with new glass and sealant.

    Apistomaster

    Perhaps I missed an earlier post. I just learned that a long time member of this forum has passed away. Apistomaster will be remembered by long time members for his many contributions to this group. On Simplydiscus.com there is a good write up about him and his unique way of keeping aquariums.

    Buying Apistogramma steindachneri

    Looking to buy some A. steindachneri. As I get older I'm getting nostalgic for some of the old under appreciated classics. I would like to get a pair if possible.

    5 gallon tanks for pair breeding?

    I got my apistos from Fontaine back in the day. Also used the techniques he recommended so I too have bred apistos in 5 gal tanks. Still do in a pinch.

    Fish Collecting Questions

    I agree with most of what Mike says. I would consider a Puerto Maldonado based trip since the apistos you would get there are never available otherwise. An Iquitos based trip offers a lot as well. Make certain you are informed about the facilities available for holding the fish and what...

    pH probe keeps drying out

    I've had the same problem. After replacing several probes I changed to an American Marine Pinpoint pH meter for use at home and only use my Hanna when on collecting trips.

    two questions in one - Geophagus sp. Alto Sinu condition for keeping and wc gbr

    I collected Rams in Venezuela. Three collection sites. Ph 6.4, 6.7, 5.8 TDS 90 ppm, 110 ppm, 30 ppm Temp 86°F, 91°F, and I did not get the temp of the third site. The wild Rams we get now are from Colombia but these water parameters give you some idea of the water they live in.

    Re-location to Peru, Dwarf cichlid queries

    In that area I collected A. luelingi, urteagai, and rubrolineata. Some of the urteagai were very striking. I don't ever see these fish offered for sale. Don't have any idea about commercial aspects.
