hi all, could it be Pristella maxillaris, the Pristella tetra? LungfishUK.

Freshwater flounders will be happy at that sort of salinity as even though their name suggest they live in freshwater they are in fact brackish fish and will live quite happily in marine once fully grown. From what i can remember they dont grow very big maybe 3-4 inches tops so are ideal for...

I believe catfish can make this noise by grinding their pectoral fin bone in their (shoulder) sockets! Causing a squeaking or grunting sound! I find it a nice party trick to show the in-laws! :hey: LungfishUK.

My spotted talking cat does the same if you take him out of the water, and as his names suggests he'll have a full blown conversation with you too! LungfishUk.

Hi All, I've kept fish for i dont know how long, but recently have become hooked on on plec's and BN's. A year or so ago i was lucky enough to buy 6 L183's from my lfs cheap, as they came mixed in with a shipment of common BN's without the owner realising. I bought them all for £3.99 each at...

Thanks guys for all your advice, will let you know how i get on! LungfishUK.

Hey Congo dude! Breeding conga puffers is doable! Check out this link on breeding Fahaka (nile, congo, etc) puffer. http://www.dmuratov.com/publications/breeding_nile_puffers/ LungfishUK.

Also got the Fahaka puffer (Nile puffer) in mind too as these dont get quite so big as the Mbu but dont know if they'll mix with ancistrus. Any thoughts? LungfishUK

initialy i'm after a juvenile so will update to a larger tank as he grows!

Hi everyone, I've been thinking of keeping an Mbu puffer for some time now. I have a 48x18x18 tank that just has community fish in it for now with lots of bogwood and ferns growing everywhere. My plan is to remove all of the exsiting fish to make way for an Mbu. The tank is fully mature with...

Oh sorry i'll have to try something else!

this is my baby (much to my girlfriends disgust), my 24" South American Lungfish http://photobucket.com/albums/c396/goldfis...02Image0031.jpg ..... and scroll down!

What about a young cat shark or polka dot grouper young tigerknife, i hear they make striking additions to any tank even one as nano as yours! Anyway if you get bored im always as ever on hand to give professional and reliable advice! :lol:

I'd have to say the weirdest fish is my South American Lungfish, 24 inches of pure muscle and slime with pin pricks for eyes. My girlfriend describes it as a huge black mans willy! (I'm just worried as to how she knows this!!)

Didn't think you were allowed to sell live animals on ebay!

Anim4l - take note of what people have said about the bichir as a friend of mine had a 12 inch fish which managed to kill and nearly eat an 8 inch elephant fish, so i would advise you to keep well away from them. Awsome fish though!! Personally i have a 24 inch south american lungfish and does...
