    Malawi brooding?

    Hello!! I haven't really posted in a long while haha but I have some questions in regards to my cichlids. In my 225 litres malawi cichlid tank, I noticed one of my yellow labs (a female) breeding with my Maylandia Greyshaki (a male). Not sure how this is possible as they're genera so I thought...

    Cichlid not opening mouth.

    I see. How long intil the eggs in her mouth hatch? (Im assuming the eggs were fertilized 1 - 2 days ago maximum) Can I remove the babies from her as soon as they hatch? Or should I wait a few days?

    Cichlid not opening mouth.

    Are you certain? Wow I haven't noticed a single sign of mating from them yet (asides from digging on gravel). Must have slipped from me. I wonder who the father is.

    Cichlid not opening mouth.

    Hello Today, I've noticed my female Orange Ob Peacock with her mouth closed as if holding something inside it. She's normally one of the most aggressive and dominant in the aquarium, however, she didn't eat today at all. It could be that she has eggs in her mouth as cichlids are mouthbrooders...

    Community tank - will shrimps live?

    If the tank is planted, yes they will survive just fine. Just nake sure to add a lot of plants and hideouts and they'll be fine, considering Gouramis swim closer to the surface where they can take gulps of air every once in a while. In terms of recycling, yeah shrimp arent going to do much (if...

    Pea Puffer ~ Trying to decide on a good tank mate...

    Pea puffers are very territotial and will kill whatever you put there. Specially in a tank so small. I wouldn't recommend.

    Blue acaras

    No? You can't tell wether or not the fry will be blue or electric blue. All you can do is find out which is the dominant and which is the recessive gene and work out a probability for each fry from there. Some will be blue some will be electric blue.

    pregnant or fat platies??

    They seem pregant. Could you send a photo of the other platies to identify the males?
  16. Maingano

    Introduction and question

    Yes, I would. I currently have 3 pregnant females in my nursery. The belly is pretty inflated so she's probably going to give birth soon. Have you got babies in the nursery? If so, put a divider so that she don't eat those.

    Introduction and question

    Yes, yes she is. You can tell wether or not female guppies are pregant by 2 things : round belly and enlarged gravid spot

    Help: Rasbora Galaxy White Spots On Skin || rasbora disease

    The photos arent exactly focused so I can't really see much. But you did say "white spots". Likely to be ICH. It can be caused by stress which fits the agenda as you said you've bought them a day ago. How big is your tank? Whats in it? Please provide your water parameters (ph, temp, ammonia...

    Bullying in my tank

    As I said, there's a bunch of kids here who will hear (well, read) that and impulsively buy 100 fish. Just take that into consideration thats all

    Bullying in my tank

    Woah woah woah. 100 is a bit of a .... stretch... Don't go around saying that because these forums are filled with young people who just got into the hobby

    Bullying in my tank

    Well, then return the other species of fish to the store. Both fosh you chose require more members. Are you sure it's a 20 gallon? If it is, you can add both.

    Bullying in my tank

    Go ahead and buy at least 3 corydoras. Cories should not he kept in groups any less than 5 minimum

    Bullying in my tank

    Then... you can definitely add another 2 - 3 females.

    Can someone please tell me what these are!?!?

    Great photos!!!! The top one seems like a female cobalt zebra? Maybe some sort of hybrid? The second one in the bottom is almost definitely Maylandia Lombardoi (Kenyi cichlid).

    Yeah part of the reason I want to re escape. I didn't take much into consideration as I didn't really know much when I set them up. Maybe one day.

    Puffer And Livebearers

    Yeah next week I'll come back to check it out (hopefully it is still there). Maybe I'll try it out, if it predates on my fish, i have 2 spare empty tanks (125L and 68L). I can just set it up and have a whole new tank aha Electricity bills 📈📈📈 My wallet 📉📉📉

    Puffer And Livebearers

    I've seen community tanks with puffers, usually fast swimming tetras not guppies which is why I was wondering if guppies would be fine
