My 90g just got too small. I have a big GT sitting on eggs in one corner and a Red Ceibal pair sitting on eggs in another corner. Their is a extra female from each species stuck in the middle.

They are inside cichlid stones and can't get my sausages in their. I try to grab sOme swimmers and grow them out.

I can hook you up with a 55 tank/stand to grow out the fry for a reasonable price...

That's one thing I dont need. I have empty: 40b, 75 no center brace, 56 column, two 55's two or 3 20g longs, a 10 and a 5 hex.

Can't you just lift those stones out?

:)


I could but I don't think I can get to the eggs without damaging them. Plus I don't have the equipment or time to artificially hatch the eggs. Will make a concerted effort to same the dry this time.

Sounds like confirmation that you've got the disease....

That's awesome bud. I'd love to see some pics of the setup of some video if your camera can do it. Green Terrors are definitely some cool fish.

Never knew what a red ceibal was until I just looked them up. Good looking guys. How big are they and how big do they get in a tank?

(Hung out with Matt and Jim up and Jon Clark's house on Sunday and they tried to corrupt me, lol)

I've seen adult ceibals around 5-6 inches. The CHANCHITOKING may still have them....

(they are chanchitos after all)

The females keep hiding but here are pics of the male. I had to darken the last photo a bit.

Here are the tank shots. I got a shot of the female sitting on eggs when she came out of the cave.

Your tank looks great Prince. Ceibals are nice as well. Have you found them to be hard on one another? I had a group at one point and they constantly harassed eachother, even in a big tank. They left their other tankmates alone.

Great looking tank and fish, Prince. Is it just those 4 fish in there?

Yeah they nip each other a lot. I had one female in their at first. When I added the other pair the nip was pretty bad until the hierarchy was established. Lot of DIy melafix was used during that time. Now everything is calm. Now the male just chases his ex girl if she wanders too far into his side especially now. The male occasionally backs down my GT.
