i traded in my ocell's at my lfs and got 4 multies instead and have them in my tank now, just got everything set up after about 3 hours of working on it (sand got clouded up and whatnot) anyway i can see 3 of them chillin out by their shells and stuff but i can't find the 4th.....i saw it...

yeah i just got 3 ocellatus and i'm almost 100% sure they're all males....so i think i'm gonna try to trade em.....maybe for some multies cause the 3 i got were the only ones they had.

sorry i meant ocellatus, wasn't really thinking........but i think i got all 3 males : /. none of them have grouped up.....looks like i gotta buy some more.....

i bought 3 ocellatus shell dwellers and they all kind of seem to show agression towards each other but 2 of them chill in the same shell could they all be males? or has this happened w/ mixed genders w/ any of you?

i've got a 10g tank set up for shell dwellers, either occies or multies, i heard that snails keep the tank clean so what should i get? i heard something about MTS snails but i don't know what that is. so when you name snails make sure it's the name i could find it as at a lfs or on google : )...

in a week or 2 i'm planning on getting some sand dwelling sichlids so i went to get everything i needed (so much fun i must add, i was in heaven lol) and i found some sand that is substrate for a reptile cage. the stuff is BONE AID Calci-Sand "pure natural calcium carbonate substrate.it is 100%...

i too am goin this direction w/ my tank. it's kind of exciting because it's such a different type of tank. these 2 types of fish are actually the only 2 my lfs carry so i don't know which way i want to go. either way i think they're both a good choice. gl w/ ur tank!

i've heard of some people having luck with these types of things and others have not. wonder what makes the difference.

well he was fun while he lasted but he'll be goin to the lfs asap. thanks for the info.....kinda mixed feelings but thanks.

i'm looking to start another tank. (since i've gotta take my JD back to my lfs since my tank is too small :angry: . btw, thanks for the info samUK :good: ) anyway i was told about something called shell dwelling cichlids and called my closest fish store, which shouldn't be called close, but...

thanks guys....i decide to get the JD which is what i was hoping it was. i'm gonna get a couple more from my lfs. again thanks for the help

kinds like JD but the dots are not as close together. maybe it's just a variation?

it's darker w/ darker stripes and a longer body shape it's not yellow and black. it's light brown w/ dark brown stripes nad blue dots around it's face fins and tail

lemme know if you can see these this one usually sits under a makeshift cave (about 3 inches long. the pic makes it looks shorter but it is just an angled shot) can be pretty agressive whenever this one swims by the whole side lights up w/ blue sparkles (3 1/2 in.) about the same size as...

a buddy of mine has a tank w/ 6 cichlids and seeing these active fish actually got me in the mood to get them for my 30g. so i looked around and got some info and yesterday he called me and told me that his tank is overstocked and said i could have whatever i wanted out of it and he would...

TESTING

i just bought 3 fancy guppies (2 pregnant females and a male) and put them in my tank and since i've put them in the do nothing but stay at the top. they won't go down to the plants and what-not unless they're chasing food, and even then they come right back up. is this normal? also if a female...

if you go on ebay you can find many different types of fish for sale then they have shipping details. i was just curious how these fish can survive being shipped if they can barely stay alive on the way home from the lfs.

first off i am very new to this so i'm sorry for that but, tomorrow i plan to go to a local fish store (have 3 to choose from) and get some rocks from a matured tank. i saw somebody say to put it in a stocking (?) what exactly does that mean. and also if i can't get ahold of any ammonium is it...
