    Looking for a fix...

    rypesh, Nope, Dayton is really lacking in its quality fish stores. I drive to Columbus to get stock from Byerly's and Aquarium Adventure. I have some A. Cacatoides fry I am raising now. It will be a little while before they are ready though. The mother is a nice triple red and the dad is...

    Female Cac's new batch

    Well, it is finally done! I have a FO male that I finally got to breed with a nice female triple red. I thought I would introduce a new health line into my reds. This is a first time female with about 75 fry. I am feeding them bbs. They are housed in a planted 29gal with another female and two...

    feeding of wild caught panduro pair(really just a newbie asking for any advice)

    If you have a reliable lfs dealer and they offer quality black worms, you should be fine. Besides, I have found this to be the best way to get the pair into breeding shape. Of course, mixing the blackworms with other frozen fare is a great way to maintain their dietary needs. Just my opinion.

    can you keep just 1?

    That is just fine. I keep some of my males in solo tanks until I am ready to try breeding them with a female. The only disadvantage I can see is that they are really fun to watch when there is a female in the tank. Plus they exhibit more pronounced color when trying to impress a female.

    Apistos and Rainbows

    The rainbows are thriving. I have had them in there about 3 years along with the barbs and I have only lost on barb (after 2 years). Thanks for the advice with the apistos, I am not sure which route to take, but it is evident that the fry would not last long in the 30 gal tank.

    Apistos and Rainbows

    I have a 30 gal panted planted aquarium with compact lighting and Co2. Right now, I have around 7 rainbows, 3 gold barbs, a gold algae eater and a siemenus in there. How would a pair of triple red cacatoides do in there? Would they likely spawn? and could they protect the eggs until I...

    Thanks for the help. All of her eggs are now gone, but I will wait it out to see what she does next time.

    Female Cac Eating Eggs?

    I purchased an orange/white female Cac last week and put her in a breeding tank with a triple red male. Right away they started the courting process and she laid about 100 eggs about 36 hours ago. At first she appeared to be cleaning her eggs but now, there appears to be only about 25 eggs left...
