    cacautoides v bolivian rams

    sorry i meant to rewrite and never got around to it. The problem has resolved itself, I bought some rams and put them in a 36inch long 30 gallon tank with a pair of cacautoides. It was strange the male cacutoides actually seemed to enjoy the company or was very curious. The male ram gave him a...

    ridiculous D.I.Y story

    I recently saw a 30gallon tank for £25 and impatiently bought it. Since then I have exhausted all my savings in buying a fluval 4 plus filter, t5 light fittings and one plant pro bulb. I am trying to get an Amazon bio-tope-ish look. My first problem was that the fluval is way too strong a...

    looking for info on nannacara adoketa

    what an incredible looking fish, reminds me of baron samedi with fins, I hope the proliferation efforts are successful. I am still new to apisto's and trying to master blackwater conditions so I wouldnt want my inexperience killing something rare in the trade. Honestly though thats the nicest...

    domestic abuse in cacatuoides

    sunken apisto painted face

    hello, my male painted face has recently displayed the signs i have recognised as sick. He is hiding more often than not, he rests on the bottom, he scratches against a rock (no visable white spot) and seems a little passive towards the tetra that share his tank. The temperature is...
