Hi everyone. Just noticed an issue with one of my A Thomasi. Small 2 mm transluscent growth on bottom of L eye. Otherwise the fish is completely healthy and acting normally. Eating well normal aggressiveness, etc. Not affecting any other fish. Ideas? Thanks, Jeff
What is the viability of keeping one of the pseudocrenilabrus species, either nicholsi or philander in a 54 gal heavily planted tank with kribs? There are plenty of dithers present. Thanks, Jeff
In addition to H. Christatus, how about P. subocellatus moanda, a thomassi,or cryptoheros nanoluteus? Would these work as well. By the way, anyone know where to find some of these? thanks
I have a 54 gallon tank which is currently being dominated by a pair of Kribs and their seemingly gazillions of fry. I have dither fish, cats, etc, and plenty of breeding caves, plants, hiding places. I am looking for another pair of cichlids to put in the tank that will hopefully co-exist...
Where can I find photos of various pelvicachromis species so I know what they look like. I have basically had it with apistos and it seems that the west african dwarfs do much better in my tanks. Thanks
Well, I threw a couple of female pulcher's in last night and didn't see a whole lot of improvement yet. The females were not large yet. Maybe I'll see some gain, today.

Hi everyone. I'm starting to notice a problem I hope you can help with. I had raised some P Taeniatus Wouri fry to adulthood and kept a female. I transferred her back to my main tank about 6 months ago and she was doing very well. My male had died and I recently purchased a male. This was...
My water parameters are good. I have a community tank and whatever the problem is, seems to only affect the cichlids. My black skirt tetras, hatchets, and bottom dwellers are not bothered. I have noticed something similar to a problem I was reading about in another thread on the site. An...
Hi. Just wondering about nutritional requirements. I do not have the ability of using live foods at this time. I have been using various flake foods in combination with frozen bloodworms, enriched brine shrimp, something called freshwater frenzy, and cyclops. It appears that my apistos will...
