    Callumanus (worms)

    That article at Loaches online is the greatest article I have read on the subject. After reading it, I have been over dosing my fish like you would not believe. It has been a great deal of time since I have had to go thru the whole ordeal of (Callumanus worms) but it is great to find an...

    Id needed for our new friend!

    Also, the fish pictured above will have very different water parameters than the vast majority of fish on this forum. I know of a site which could probably help you out... it is called Malawi Mayhem. http://www.malawimayhem.com/ Good Luck.

    New cacatuoides and immediately fry!

    Congrats Congrats, I would try and get them some sort of live food, (BBS) Baby Brine Shrimp would be good or some Daphnia, you should be able to pick up some BS eggs at your LFS and they should have directions on the package. Or you may be able to find Daphnia locally.

    Define: Triple from Double

    Thank you Thank you, I was pretty sure of it. But I saw some pictures today where the Apisto's had red on their ventral fins also. So I was a little concerned, I may have been wrongly advertiseing mine. I had a great spawn. 57 last count have lost a few since, but I think it is due to...

    heres what i`ve got in my tank.

    Lab's??? When you say (Labs) I hope you don't mean...Labidochromis caeruleus. These fish are from north side of Lion's Cove, Malawi. There habitat is usually Sediment-Rich Rocky Habitat with a pH: 7.8 - 8.6 Water Hardness: Hard. Where as your (Rams) Mikrogeophagus ramirezi come from Orinoco...

    Dither Fish

    Thank you for the replies, I also would like to do the Nannostomus species (pencil fish) but they don't have them very often at the LFS and when they do, I just watch them drop off one by one thru the weeks, so I do not want to subject my fish to what ever they have. The Endler's are a great...

    Dither Fish

    I have a pair of Cacatuoides in which the male is extremley skittish. The female is fine, comes out for feeding and swims around the tank. The tank has lots of cover, almost completely covered in moss and several pieces of drift wood and about five caves, so I don't believe it is a lack of...

    Time to raise the Temp. ???

    Okay, little of confusion here I think. I have free swimming fry, they are about two weeks old. My question is how long do I have to keep the temp. at 26 degrees to get the 50/50 ratio? Then if I can or should raise the temp. what do you all suggest. My previous batch I raised where all...

    ??Temp?? Male or Female

    Reply I would also like to know about when it happens. I know that mine where in a tank which had a pretty much constant temp. of 80 and still are in a tank at 80. I have the tank which I am going to breed in set at 77, so as soon as I pick one of the best looking males I am going to breed...

    ??Temp?? Male or Female

    I recently had a spawn of Apistogramma Cacatuoides out of the fry, I had 13 make it, and they are about 14 weeks old now. Out of the 13 I believe if not all are male there may just be one female. I have heard that temp. plays a major part in this and was wondering what information anyone has on...
