cichlids

Went to the lfs and I noticed two very lovely deep red Cichlids protecting about 50-60 tiny wigglers! What I want to know is, are they male and female/pair? Both are very red and both chased off the other 3 dull Cichlids and kept sucking in fry and placing them back in the center. One has a...

The current August issue (Issue 8 August '10) of Practical Fish Keeping magazine has some great articles in it. The one that caught my eye immediately was on the cover it mentioned an article by Heiko Bleher on Iranocichla hormuzensis. Then, after buying it, I found an awesome article on...

Interested in finding some juvi black belts. does anyone have them or know where to find them.

Not sure if anyone is interested... but I am planning on buying some fish from Alison... in the next week or so. She is a direct importer and has some pretty nice stuff on her lists... malawi and tangs. This is kind of thrown together as I need something that isn't brought into the states that...

IF ANYONE KNOWS WHERE SOME ARE LOCALLY PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I HAVE GOOD FRIEND LOOKING. THANKS:D

I'm sure you're all tired of this saga by now . . . Daddy was guarding free-swimming fry for the past week. Numbers were dwindling, but still OK. Saturday morning around 7 a.m. the babies were out and fine. When I checked the tank again a few hours later, babies had gone missing and Dad and...

Borrowed my boss' video cam last night and shot a few videos of the fishroom and big tank. I'll post up a new one every few of days until the picnic. Click the 480p resolution for HD. Enjoy! :cool: This first video is of part of the fishroom... 40 breeders containing my mostly male...

Up for sale are Convict Cichlids. Size: up to around 3 inches. Some are smaller, let me know what size you want. They were born Christmas time, so they are about 6 months old. They are old enough now that i can tell their gender. I am selling these fish for $2.50, or if you buy 4 or more...

Are they the most aggressive cichlid out there?

how often do they breed and is there any special requirements in terms of water chemistry?

I would like to acquire several German blue rams. I would like two males and two females, depending on the price. I would at least like to get a male. I have a female who is doing very well, but is lonely. SCB

Before I order another pair off Aquabid or via Jeff Rapp, just wanted to put a call out to members. I've got one pair sitting in QT now, but will want a second pair in the next week or two for my planted 58 gallon tank. Anyone got two they are willing to part with? Something similar in size to...

Hey guys! I love turtles, that's all i used to keep before i got fish. I know they have claws and jaws, but can they be kept with fish? it'd be cool to have a snapping turtle or other slow moving bottom dwelling turtle with my fish. Thanks, :jumpy: <--- LOL WTF.

Last call for free fish. I have about 10 free Hemichromis Gutattus juveniles to give away before I put them down. They are beautiful and I really don't want to put them down but I don't have enough room for them. Didn't expect ti to be this are to get rid of them. I also have a beautiful...
