    Some people are cool .. but there's us a few that ruin any fun to be had here... I was enjoying myself but I'm tired of the purists that complain if you don't post the name of a fish right or are always telling others how they should enjoy your hobby.. They are your fish enjoy them how you...

    CORYDORAS SCHULTZEI "BLACK VENEZUELA"

    They are practically black. With some dark dark orangish red fins... They have a bunch of rare species of Corydoras right now.. I want the green lasers but at $20 per fish they get expensive fast.. I could get 10 to 18 of a couple different Corydoras for the price of 5 green lasers. I found 4...

    Angel fish eggs... ???

    This is the second time for spawning, they made it to the wigglers stage with no intervention. Even did a water change above them before realizing they were there... also noticed they are moving the wigglers from where the eggs are at to this location next to it which makes them more exposed to...

    Swordtail fry

    I have 6 different Corydoras types in one tank in small groups of 4. Had a few losses but they are doing well and a few started spawning this evening. I eventually want to get all the swordtails out and get a badis or another Scarlett badis.. I already have one scarlet badis in the tank named...

    Swordtail fry

    They did turn out nice, plus I feed varieties of food to try and get more color out of them, finally got my pineapple swordtail though. Along with some 50/50 orange and black ones that still need to grow some. But they look like mini gold fish. And we're fun for a little bit

    Swordtail fry

    Update: Was getting crowded in my tank, luckily I was able to donate a majority of the swordtails to a couple LFS.. 40 to 50 of the one's I could catch. Lol.. Slowly getting it back to what I wanted the tank to be in the first place a Corydoras community tank.. I also moved a opaline gourami...

    Angel fish eggs... ???

    Thanks for the information.. I'm not to focused on having angel fry going right now have too many swordtails to deal with currently. The other fish in the tank will likely get them if the snails don't first.

    Angel fish eggs... ???

    Looks like a couple hundred eggs doing a fast count. Just surprised I managed to pick a male and female they look identical other than color markings which is how I selected them... Originally I bought one 6 months ago, after I got home I decided to go back and get the other one similar to it..

    Angel fish eggs... ???

    Looks like my angel fish turned out to be a make female pair after all... Didn't notice this until today because their behavior was way more aggressive and they had been focused around the scented oil burner.. Thinking I should grab a tank divider to keep the other fish in the tank safe. Or...

    Swordtail fry

    That sucks. She should have dropped by now. Could be she is skidish, but she should give birth at midnight /pre dawn time frame given the circumstances are right.. I do things differently than suggested.. I over feed, I do cool water changes and am usually cleaning the tank every few days to...

    Swordtail fry

    Depends.. some fish are skidish my Corydoras are that way.. my swordtails I tend to overfeed to get them to give birth. And I have noticed they will hide away and box out just before giving birth.. if she looks square from the front she should give birth within a week.. my neon did it over a...

    Swordtail fry

    Y Yeah.. I've been lucky so far. But they do get spoiled with lots of frozen food. 1 month old and the bigger ones are already gobbling up full size brine shrimp.. funny to watch..

    Swordtail fry

    Apparently I have good fish parents that don't eat their young... The 2 that didn't make it were the albinos like the mother fish those I really wanted.. but there's always a next time with live bearers.. both of these batches look like they came from when they were in the store.. definitely not...

    Swordtail fry

    So far everything is going well.. got some frozen baby brine for the fry to pig out on. Also have been mashing up some frozen krill to go with it since it will help with the color of all the fish in the tank as well as the fry... They are all over the tank in little school's or 4 major groups...
