Chemistry parameters are within the accepted norml range, and i feed the tankmates a high quality flake with both brine shrimp, and blood worms, and pellets. the Caca isn't crazy about the flake so much, but will snack a bit, but he still devours the frozen blood worms, and picks away at the...
Hi, my boy is still eating well, and has recently had his first spawning as well, but i have been noticing that his belly seems to be getting quite bulging. Anyone know what's going on, and if it's treatable? He still seems to swim in the usual manner, but his mouth always seems open a bit...
What's the secret to breeding?? I had read that these guys breed quite easily, but i have a pair in a 27g long with cardinals, and the female wants no part of the fella.
Thanks for answering. The male is roughly 2" or a tad shorter(including tail), and the female is about 1 1/4". She is frequently showing her yellow coloring(almost always) but no eggs or anything. Just recently they seem to be gently bullying the cardinals ever so slightly, but i still doubt...
Hello folks, i just wanted to know if......
1. Anyone in the London, Ontario region had any female only caca's to try to breed with?
2. I already have only a m/f pair in a medium planted tank with wood,a few pots, cardinals, otto's, a small bn plec, and a few rock shrimp. I unfortunately...
It's too bad you didn't live in Canada! I could get rid of those FAST here. As well as keep some for myself(they're hard to come by on any kind of regular basis, and then they're usually all males).
Just wanted to know if anyone in the London, Ontario region has any FEMALE only Bolivian Rams. I have 2 boys already, and they must be certain that they are girls. I would like to have 3, but i will take what i can get. Thanks.
As for tank size, it's a 36X12 footprint(38gallons for now=going into same size footprint 27 long).
I assume that there is no CONCLUSIVE way for me to tell if i have 2 males then? I just want to give them a nice environment(moving a pair hopefully M/F into planted 27), and not have them...
LOL. #1, and #2 are the same fish that i thought was originally a female, but now think is a male, and the 3rd pic is of the newer fish(correct). Whenecer they do come together face to face, they tend to flare up and then flare gill covers etc. Initially they tried a quick lip-lock, but not...
Okay, here's a few new pics(i hope). The original one i thought was female has the 2 spots/stripe and the new "male has a faded single bar which i'll try to show last. They don't try to kill each other, just butt heads now and then. The 2-spot just seems to hang out at the front of the glass...
Okay, here's the situation.....i was pretty sure that i had a female, and a few others on here kinda thought so also, so i went and got a male. I put him in the same community tank(for now) and the 2 don't like each other at all, and chase each other now and then. Have i actually got 2 males...
Just wondering about adding last years fallen oak leaves to the tank, and want to know if i should boil them first, and if they drop the hardness and pH, or are they just for looks? Thanks.
Yes, London, Ontario. I would like a beautifully colored male/female pair only. I have seen just a few blotchy males in London a short time ago, but i'm really hoping to find a nice colored pair for trying to breed for the experience! I love their finnage too. Red,orange...the specific color...
I'm looking to stock a PAIR of M/F's with nice colouring in a new tank, and wanted to know if anyone in the London/St. Thomas area had any they were willing to sell?
I'm just a newbie as well, but i have kribs and a clown pleco, and used to have an Agassizi. The tank is only 38gallons, but the kribs are territorial, and although they didn't harm the Aggie, i think that they stressed him to death by constantly chasing him if he swam into the middle of the...
