    Maximum pH delta with drip acclimation

    I'm finding conflicting reports of how much of a pH swing freshwater fish should be able to withstand, or at least the rate of acclimation they can stand. Say going from 7.5 to a different tank that's at 6.5, what would be a reasonable amount of time for drip acclimation to avoid any shock or...

    White spots not ich?

    My male GBR has some white nodes on his head and a sort of "patch" of white on the rear next to his eye (left of eye in photo). No other spots on body, fins, or other side of head. He's still active and comes up when I go near the tank and he has appetite. He's in 20 gal w/ 2 pencil, female...

    A Video of GBR mating dance

I did a water change on one of my Mikrogeophagus ramirezi tanks and when I went back in a few minutes later, the female had deposited some eggs on the driftwood. I set up my camera on a tripod and left the room. This is one of the...

    Apistogramma Cacatuoides red color morphs

    I've done quite a bit of searching and I can't seem to find documentation on the red color trait behavior in A. cacatuoides. Does anyone have a reference on this? For instance, if I want a quad male to produce quad male offspring, does the female need to have a "quad" trait/gene? Similarly, are...

    A Cacatuoides white tip on dorsal ray

    So my male triple red cacatuoides was from the same place that I got my doomed male agassizii. He is in a 20L NH3 0, NO2 0, NO3 < 1; pH 6.6, dGh 1, dKh 2 He's with two female cacatuoides and three pencilfish. The tank is fine, in fact both females have fry right now, so he's been pretty busy...

Took three separate treatments of maracyn i & ii to get whatever it was to go away. He was in QT the whole time. I moved him into a 20L with...
