Question, my a wangenflecken have proved to be amazing first time parents. Their fry are now two months old and the mother has laid again. Should I start removing the older fry in preparation of the new arrivals?
I bought these like 6-7 months ago and thought that i had a male and sub dominant, so i seperated them. Well after a couple months the smaller one began looking less and less like the big male i had, so about a month or so ago i put them in a 10 gallon together and she colored up and they now...
I have a harem of double red cacatoudies, recently i had added 2 new females to the initial pair i had. The pair has had many many successful spawns but the male always ate the fry. So recently ive been pulling the fry and growing them out in marina hang on breeder boxes. SO earlier this week...
I've been looking for females for my macmasteri for months now and my my lfs ordered some for me. Yet the three they ordered are not macmasteri. I have a male and 2 females. The male and one female paired up quickly and she has wigglers in her cave but trying to figure out what type they are...
I have a pair of double reds that consistently spawn, yet out of the 4 spawns they have had only two fry have survived. I'm curious how people remove their new fry from tanks? I'd like to try and raise these ones up as it's a pretty big brood this time. Any suggestions?
Title says it. All. I have a pair of double reds already and wanted a few mor females. I was a bit skeptical but not that they are home I'm convinced that they are agassizi. Can the forum help me out?
I've spent many many hours looming for info on this species and haven't found a whole lot. Can anyone make any suggestions on sites or books to give me a better description and information on them?
I've been using pool filter sand and play sand in various tanks. The play sand is quite dirty for some time, I'm wondering what else people have used in there tanks. In other non apisto tanks I use safe t sorb and black diamond blasting grit. Would these suffice as well or is sand just better??
The tank on the right has a pair of double red cacatuoides with 2 different sets of fry. The tank in the middle has a single macmasteri and the tank on the left has the sub dominant macmasteri and 2 juvie alacrinas until I determine exactly there sex.
So my last thread on finding out what these guys were went bad due to me assuming so id like to apologize to anyone i had offended in that thread, im here to learn and contribute when i can so i dont want to act like im not. This leads me to my question, how to differentiate a male and female...
I have a pair in a 10 gallon that happened to have free swimming fry about 10 days ago, i was shocked as this was not suppose to be a permanent residence for these fish. Well now it almost seems as if the mother has laid eggs again as she hasnt come out of her flower pot in days and if she...
