Flowerhorn Hybrids by RedForeman ©®
I'll be the first to admit, I didn't like them at all, because of the stigma 'hybrid' and relating hybrid to bloodparrots, I duly dismissed any hybrid as a 'bad thing' .... but is it? Hybrids were/are different... I'm not defending them, but about the Flowerhorns.... anyone have...

I have a 125 gallon tank of various Malawi cichlids. Last night, I noticed a small cichlid (3 mm) looked like a Blue Cobalt, hiding under a rock. He was the only one I saw. After staring at the tank, I noticed worm like larvae swimming near the top of the tank, twirling like little mosquitoe...

Ping: Red Foreman!! by 'nutherBob
Red, remember the electric blue's you have that are changing colors? (I thank that was you..) Guess what, mine are too. One is turning yellow, looks very healthy, the other is a bit smaller, but he's changing too. I couldn't find the earlier thread about this, so is this a problem or a Petsmart...

Book suggestions? by Joe B.
After about 20 years I'm getting back into fishkeeping, and much has changed in that time. I want to set up a tank with central or south american (probably dwarf) cichlids plus a few other occupants and I need a refresher course in aquarium know-how before I do it. Can anyone recommend any...

Paracyprichromis deaths by Cichlidiot
I've lost a couple of Paracyprichromis nigripinnis out of my juvenial school (was 9, now 6) in the past couple of months and am wondering if it is possible that they were harassed to death. They are housed in a 40gal with 3 juvenial calvus and 1 adult male similis. The similis was put in that tank...

Julidochromis transcriptus black/gombi by Tjaard de Vries
a fish store about 150 miles from here sells these and the lady at the phone told me that a couple of these fish would be suitable for shell dweller-like small tanks like 50 litres. is there anyone here with experience with these fish in small tanks?

odd behavior? by Chris Gentry
I've got a yellow lab that appears to be swimming a race, but it isn't going anywhere. It is swimming in the same spot, but its body is moving like it is trying to sprint somewhere. It has been doing this all day long. My water parameters are fine, and I just changed ~20% of the water 3 days...

Brichardi behaviour by Boozhound
I have half a dozen Brichardi of varying sizes in a 20 gallon tank. For the past few months they have all been the best of pals. However I now have a whole lot of Brichardi fry in the tank too. Four of the adults still get on fine, but they have all turned on the other two, so that I have had...

Lonely Geophagus Jurupari? by MarAzul
I know some cichlids don't mind being the odd man out while some prefer the company of their own species. Which category do Geo's fit into? I used to have 2 but one died a while back. The remaining fish seems content to move all my gravel around all by his (her?) lonesome. Should I get another...

taming cichlids by Tjaard de Vries
perhaps this idea is nuts, but my fish know me, they swim towards the front window when I'm around the tank at feeding times, so I wonder... is it difficult to make cichlids hand tame? it'd be nice :) .

I recently purchased some victorians, I cannot find much info on them at all, wondering if anyone could help.

spotting inbred scalares by Tjaard de Vries
I'm thinking of keeping angelfish, but as these fish are extremely popular, I'm a bit worried about their gene pool. I'll definitely take the natural form, as they were meant to be, but it'd be helpful if I knew how to separate good specimens from inbred ones. anyone who can give me some insight...
