    Pseudocrenilabrus nicholsi info

    Hi All I managed to track down a pair of Pseudocrenilabrus nicholsi, I would have prefered to find a couple of more females, but to no avail. There doesn't seem to be too much information on the web on them. Basically they are aggressive, require medium hard water, eats anything, breeds...

    first fry

    Congratulations on your first fry. As a matter of fact Borelli were my first Apisto I successfully spawned, and I still have a tank dedicated to them. Hatch time and time to free swimming would all delend on your water temperature. I keep my borellies in the low 70's and it takes about ten to...

    Water change question

    Keep up with your regular water changes if it does not stress out the female. I have a few pairs that are use to it and they just move the fry to the opposite end of the tank when I am in there. I refill the aquarium using a piece of airline tubing, it takes an hour or so but the water is added...

    Can someone tell where I can get these spices at?

    Exporters in Europe have both species available. As a matter of fact I ordered, through a wholesaler friend of mine 6 Nigerian reds, that's the bag size, and ended up with the smaller size ones, but Qty 15. Let me tell you they are beautiful fish with personality to match. Even though they are...

    Pelvicachromis T. Kienke

    Finally They finally spawned, when doing water changes I noticed wigglers, I would have to estimate twenty-five, there was also three infertile eggs mixed with them that were starting to fungus, so I opted to pull them all, remove the eggs and will raise them myself. It took long enough...

    Gymnogeophagus balzani information

    So sad, maybe next time Well I am sorry, but my fish never showed up, there was three bags missing from the order and they were all mine. Guess I will try again next time, but on a good note I received some really nice Pelvicachromis Taeniatus Nigerina Red, a little small, but they'll grow up...

    Gymnogeophagus balzani information

    Hi Ted I know it seems a little crowded, but 15 is bag size. They are only listed at 4 to 5 cm. So I figured they do well until I get them settled in for in a months time I will have a few more 40 gallon breeders that I can divide them into. Hopefully one male with 2 or 3 females. Of...

    Gymnogeophagus balzani information

    Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of Gymnogeophagus balzani that they would like to share. A friend of mine was doing an order and I got him to get me 15 of these beautiful little species. I have never seen them in Canada, and the information on the web is sketchy if best. I set up...

    Pelvicachromis T. Kienke

    I can only wish that my camera wasn't broken, and I was just in my fish room and my pair of Pelvicachromis T. Kienke are getting ready to spawn. The were quite intent and didn't back down when I placed my mug up against the glass. In full breeding colors the pair were circling each other, they...

    Lower Ph

    I have a pair of Apistogramma Makore that breed for me regulary but the eggs are always infertile. I have a feeling because the water is too hard and the Ph value is high, 7.4 and 130 PPM. I have been performing water changes with 30% R/O water and adding pH down to get the ph down but it keeps...

    Nanochromis parilus breeding

    Parilus breeding Hi George I found them basically the same except that parilus doesn't require the acidic water that transvestitus requires. For parilus I found that the water should be soft and around neutral. Soft water is very important if you want to spawn them. They also have a very...

    breeding Agassizzi

    Breeding They will do this back and forth until they actually spawn, then the female will rule the aquarium. When she does lay eggs be prepared to move him out of there. Even with lots of hiding spaces there is still not enough room for both of them when the eggs are laid or the fry are...
