Hello everyone, When I first set up my tank around a year and a half ago I bought what was labelled as a Salt & Pepper Syndontis (juvenile), however his/her colour and size now seem to reflect Syndontis Granulosus. Have a look at the pictures, positive I.D would be great...p.s how big to these...

Hello all, I have two female Sajica Cichlids, had them around 2 years, today I noticed them spawning in a strange way, usually just fin slapping, now they are locking mouths: The larger of the two now has a sore white nose, could this be a sign of bad things to come? Yax

Hello all! I'm moving house early August and I just wanted some advice about moving the tank and the fish etc... It's a 25gal planted Freshwater, i was thinking glass jars for the fish? I want to know how long i can realistically keep the fish out of the tank in their individual jars. Any...

Hello all, I have had one Green Severum, not sure of the sex, for about two weeks. I decided to introduce another as my two female Sajica Cichlids aren't very friendly with the Severum and I thought a companion might help. However, the new Green Severum has not been well received, constantly...

Can anyone tell me what these black markings on my smallest Sajica Cichlid are? I've just noticed today and they look strange! Not White like ICH and no other symptoms or marks on other fish! Help! Yaxley

Need help here! Today I bought a Red Claw Crab, I left the house for an hour this evening (he was sat on top of the filter). He is now nowhere to be seen, both in the tank and in my room! I've put two dishes of water out in the hope I'll attract him but I have no idea what to do! Any...

Hello Cichlid lovers! I need some advice about a female Sajica Cichlid and a female Convict Cichlid. The two have spent the last month swimming together and fin slapping, but now have completely dug out a spawning cave and are guarding it relentlessly! The tank is 25gal and I have owned the...

Hello all, J just wanted to post asking for any information about South American Puffer fish. I have had one in my tank for around 4 months with no problems. However, all he seems hungry for are Bloodworms, he won't go near brine shrimp or snails- a very picky puffer. I've heard tricks such as...

Hello everyone, This is only my second post about my 25 gal freshwater tank. I have a fairly aggressive Red Tail Black Shark who is getting too big for the tank and likes nothing more than to bully my Sajica Cichlid. The Shark (Sid) is around 4 inches long. If anyone in and around Brighton UK...
