Hello Fellow Fish Hobbyists, It has been a while since I have visited here. I am sure you all realize how busy one's life can get at times. We have to neglect some things, in order to get other things done. My aquarium's status hasn't changed much over the months, other than the fact that my...

Hello again everyone. I have a friend who -- according to the image he posted -- has what appears to be a Metriaclima Greshakei. However, I am also wondering if it might also be a Metriaclima Mbenjii. What are the subtle differences between the two species? Thanks!

Today there was quite a stir in the tank, as Bully Boy went totally berserko and was on the rampage again, seriously persecuting the other three males. I immediately suspected what was going on; and sure enough, when I caught sight of her, female #1's ovipositor was extended again, and she was...

Hello Everyone, I have an online friend who has asked me to help him to identify one of his recent purchases, or more appropriately said, a "mystery fish" which was recently bought by his wife, along with three other fish. I suggested to him that it looks like an albino Labidochromis Caeruleus...

Hello everyone. What a pleasant surprise I had this evening when, while watching my fish eat their evening meal, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed something move out from under a rock near the front left corner of the tank, and then back in again. This is the same area of the tank where I...

As I've mentioned on a few forums, the sad truth is that we only have two LFS on our island out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Most tropical fish are imported from Taiwan, the Philippines or Singapore...and as a former pet store manager, and aquarium design and maintenance biz owner, I...

Hello again everyone, For the past two months, I have been seeking online help to properly identify my fish, one of which you can see in the June contest section of this forum. Please look for the title containing the name "Bully Boy". Here are two images of "Bully Boy" and female #2, which...

This is a 1280 x 960 pixel image of my dominant male "Bully Boy", taken with a Casio EX-Z50 digital camera. There is a debate regarding whether he is a Melanochromis Johanni, a Melanochromis Cyaneorhabdos, or a hybrid of one of these and something else. His regular horizontal bars appear faded...

Ha! Did that title catch your attention? ;) I've pretty much spilled the beans in my personal profile. Please click on my avatar -- or however it works on this forum -- to get the not-so-juicy details! Thanks for the PM welcome, Quinn...even though it was automated. :rolleyes: I'll be...
