the First bugging question

[hollywoodH]

that one looks more like the striped one it was sold to me as a comunity fish and ate every comunity fish i had apart from the dollar and the clown Loaches. The cats are short and stubby.

Suposubdly it is a version of the Chromide yes but it is quite a thin fish - Orange fins

 

[mostanks]

could be a hybrid,w/out pics we'll be here all day

well atleats i know you have albino cory cats,shaped like this guy right but your is white

no photo coming up on that mate

 

[mostanks]

did you click on the lil x?pic should come up-if not right clik on it-copy and paste it in the address.


lets try it this way-i'll post a few pics of different cichlids and you tell me which one is SHAPED like yours,that way i should be able to narrow it down to a rift lake cichlid or south america or central etc etc.

ive got that one in white yes very carzy skatty things

 

[hollywoodH]

the one with the orange fins is similar to the kribensis yes but has a different mouth. The mouth is more like a silver dolars or bull dog mouth as i like to call it LOL


Sorry about being a pain in the bum mate. Cheers for your help

man i love this stuff

 

[wetwetwet]

Hi hH lol which one?

The corrie like this ? corrie

With the cichlids there can be crosses out there - so if your lfs can't tell you what it is then I'd be very wary - and change your lfs

 

[hollywoodH]

thats good then. I will never get rid of the one with orange fins as it is my favourite one it looks so good when its fins rise up.

 

[hollywoodH]

thats the corrie but its an albino. I think your right Wet i will find some otherone now. Problem is it has the best stock of fish around my way by quite a bit

 

[wetwetwet]

Hmmmm....best stock? - if they can't tell you what they are or where they came from then theres got to be something wrong

If you can't ID the mystery fish and they'll take them back then do so - or I would.

CM could be of help here....

 

[hollywoodH]

i am taking one back but i love "little Dave" the dwarf Cichilid with orange fins. That is slighlty similar to a kribensis

 

[wetwetwet]

OK......going back to your orriginal question then...

Both the clown loaches and the corries are happiest in groups so you could increase their numbers - I have 5 clowns in my community and they interact well with each other

 

[hollywoodH]

ok any other fish recomended??

 

[cichlidmaster]

I agree that adding a few more clowns would be a good idea. The tank size your upgrading to surely would be big enough.
