    thank you so much for the reply. Do you have any videos or photos? Do you keep the couples together and in how many liters? How do you behave for the children?

    Wild betta biotope ideas

    Fantastic ! I would really like to know more about your experiences especially with imbellis , wild splendens and smaragdina. I would like to know more about the values they were held to, if they have management problems as a couple like betta shows, if they have problems with other fish, how...

    Wild betta biotope ideas

    sorry for my stupid beginner question. Aren't you afraid that it will jump out? I have a 60x30x30 tank that is open and I was looking for a glazier to build me the cover because everyone says that with wild bettas it is essential

    Wild Betta antuta

    I missed this... I'm undecided whether to get wild bettas from this site, maybe going in person, or get it from Franks Bettas https://www.lamangrovia.com/epages/169547.sf/it_IT/?ObjectPath=/Shops/169547/Products/bettawild22%5B1%5D

    Wild Betta antuta

    Who knows this species of wild betta? I saw several videos on youtube or facebook and I found one in a shop. He was practically always hidden though and I wanted to understand if antuta is a shy species, what type of aquarium and water needs, if antuta can live in pairs, character, etc.

    Is this tank good for betta imbellis?

    I'm joining this conversation and I apologize for the intrusion. I'm also very interested in wild bettas, I have a 60x30x30 aquarium that I'm slowly starting to install and then let it mature. My favorite fish are various cichlids but I really love anabantidae. I'm studying wild bettas and I...

    Do you think fish remember each other???

    Sorry for my bad English. As someone obsessed with emotions, with learning dogs, I love these discussions!! For example,i see so many videos of dogs reuniting owners and dogs after years of separation and the dog is initially wary, doesn't visually recognize the old owner or even his voice, at a...

    Paradise fish, only one ???

    thanks for the reply. I saw in an Italian fb group paradise fish many who have external mini pounds with lots of opercularis, even males, together with other fish, the problem they have is where to put the many offspring. The mini pounds do not attract me for now (but my hyper aquatic dogs would...

    Not crazy about them ?

    Funny post!! (sorry for my bad English) So I don't like schooling fish very much, I don't know, I'm too much of a "dog lover" but I like the idea of identifying each of my fish, not a mass that moves. Barbels are quite an exception, I like them quite aesthetically and also for that "character"...

    Paradise fish, only one ???

    Do any of you have Paradise fish (Macropodus Opercularis)? I have a 60x30x30 aquarium that is still to be set up and they are undoubtedly fish that I adore for their aesthetics, interactivity and above all for their robustness and longevity. They would live peacefully with my water parameters...

    Italian site with very detailed information about fish and more

    I don't know if I'm breaking some rules, but it occurred to me that maybe you don't know this Italian site where describes in a detailed and very very ethological way the various species of fish and not only. Maybe using google translate could be useful to some users (obviously I'm indicating...

    stocking ideas for a 10-15 gallon betta tank?

    I find them wonderful, but on the sites they say that they want very oxygenated water, have you noticed this? because I wouldn't mind with a betta!

    killi fish that live more than two years

    I am a beginner but I am a person who is fond of animals and I know that I will also do so with my future fish. Hence the question: are there killi fish that live more than two years and that are not shy but interactive and interesting? If so, can you give me the names (also scientific) and...

    looking for ideas (and to stop changing them :-) )

    aesthetically I like them if they are not excessive (see plakat) but it was for the reasons you said that I was interested in wild bettas, I find them even more beautiful because they are natural and character-wise they are not ruined by man increasing their aggressiveness and decreasing their...

    looking for ideas (and to stop changing them :-) )

    thank you so much for your kind reply! For show bettas do you have any ideas on who to put with him ? Other ideas of fish with interesting, beautiful, human-interacting behaviors that I could put in? I am open to many ideas even of species that are not very well known (for example in dogs when I...

    Finally my first aquarium has arrived, with the best dimensions I could find, that is 60x30x30 cm 54 liters My water values are: ph 7 gh 7 kh 7 conductivity 540 but I'm willing to use osmosis water and add salts I was convinced about which fish to put but instead I keep changing my mind...

    filter, lighting and heater for my first a

    hello!!! sorry again for my bad English! I'm so excited!! Today my first aquarium arrived. As I said in previous posts for now I can only put a small aquarium but I hope soon to be able to have a 250-300 liter one too. My small aquarium is 60x30x30, unfortunately not having much height...

    Help help help !!! Who between Betta and Paradise fish? Comparing experiences

    What do you think then of a male paradise fish with some poecilidae? it should prey on the fry in a natural way, thus preventing too many from surviving. How do you prefer opercularis compared to bettas? I am attracted by the robustness, the longer lifespan, the simpler parameters of the water...

    Help help help !!! Who between Betta and Paradise fish? Comparing experiences

    I ask you for advice. I have been passionate about aquariums for a few months and I am trying to read and inform myself as much as possible. Unfortunately, due to a court case with the builders of my new house, I cannot install a large aquarium until the end of the case (I have an area with...

    "Interactiv" fish

    With Rainbow Shiner or Tanichthys albonubes ? I made a specific post, if you feel like answering there maybe it's more correct. Have the opercularis given you problems between male and female or with other fish?

    "Interactiv" fish

    the more you describe them to me the more I'm falling in love!! I could have a 38 liter aquarium or even a 60 (the problem is the height, I'm 47 cm.) For the roommates he also talks about Tetras. In your opinion which species of Tetras would be suitable for one Panda Garra? And the barbels only...

    Panda Garra (Garra Flavatra)

    I am a beginner. I would like to meet interesting fish, with particular character, that interact also outside the tank, with humans. I am intrigued by the Panda Garra. Can you tell me something more about him from a direct experience? What other guests could I put that are suitable for his...

    If you were to make an interesting 60 liter aquarium with Garra Pandas, what other fish would you put in?

    Question bout swordtails

    I don't really like overstocking in any case. I don't think they live very well. What do you think about it ? Maybe it's better to have a few males or really give up on these species

    Betta Wild ! Imbellis, mahachaiensis, smaragdina

    I recently discovered the various types of wild bettas. They immediately fascinated me but at the same time the information about them that I find around is quite conflicting. At a management level, some describe them as simpler because they are more rustic, others as more complex precisely...

    "Interactiv" fish

    sorry but what is Ropes fish? I apologize for the question but in Italy fish are usually called by their scientific names with the rare exceptions such as guppy, platy, molly. I'm trying to learn the English names but I can't always find them

    "Interactiv" fish

    the photo with the parrot is really special!! My mother also had one like that. What kind of apistogram are they? I didn't know anything about the Panda Garra, I'm getting some information

    "Interactiv" fish

    thank you so much for this interesting analysis! I imagined something like this on predators. I found difficult to understand the other types of fish

    interesting! did you feed them food from your hands? did they cut you by biting? How many liters did you have?

    Question bout swordtails

    very interesting! Many instead say that having a tank of only males is unnatural and causes too much stress in the males themselves. I am a novice and one thing that stops me from having an aquarium of Platys or Guppies or Mollies or Swordtails is precisely the reproductive problem. If you put...

    "Interactiv" fish

    Most fish live thinking only about what happens in the aquarium. Others are shy and any movement outside the aquarium makes them hide. Others are curious and seem to participate in life outside the tank. The most well-known are certainly the Oscar fish (Astronotus ocellatus) and the Blood...
