Can anyone help me to ID this fish? I have been told it was a kenyi, polocosi (SP) and even a hybrid. The reason I bring it back up is b/c I seen one the other day at a LFS and asked the guy what it was he said it was a juvenile female kenyi? If you notice its bars on one side are straight...

How likely is it that when you buy from a LFS that the juveniles you buy are brothers and sisters? And what effects does this have if they spawn

Well I tried venting and I couldn't tell anything with the labs. All I seen was one hole. I didn't even try with the Acei

Thought it was easy? lol Just like 0o or 00

yall read this Pseudotropheus sp. `acei' When can I vent? Is it not stressful to the fish? I mean you got to chase them catch them hold them.. I think Im gonna get a lil container and put my aquarium water in it and catch all my cichlids, Acei and labs and vent then drop it in container so...

I read that male Acei's will have blue dorsal fins and female will be an all yellow dorsal. Is this true? And if so do they all start out yellow and become blue later if they are males? If not I have all females they are probably an inch or so big right now. Thanks in advance

If I had to pick I would say the first one here Malawi Dream - Pseudotropheus socolofi Mara Point only with bars sometimes, but I have also seen it be dark purple

I just got these 2 products OMEGA ONE Super color pellets and Supper Veggie KELP FLAKES and was wondering if any of you have had good results with them? Im trying to give the cichlids a verity. I also have frozen bloodworms and cichlid sticks and regular flake food. I got the veggie b/c I...

I have another thread with pics, but thanks for FB

Yea I know. Im going to redo my tank. I didnt know what I was doing when I did this. Gonna put lot of caves and plants in there. And sand substrate

I have came to a conclusion I just went and got 3 more labs and 4 Acei Cichlids. Like the blue one that no1 can ID for me they Aceis turn from dark to light also, but only in certain parts of the aquarium. I have a gravel pattern in my tank where it goes blue white blue white. 5lbs of white...

Kenyi, or lab, or hybrid please help I have been told a million things Sorry for the quality hope you can tell the difference here(above) the blue is actually a light blue. When I got it is was a dark purple like below and barley could see bars. It changes color all the time and even its...

Hey yall its been a loooong time. Tonight my wife brought home 2 cichlids. Both still very small. 1 is yellow and the other is kinda purple? I was wondering how to tell what kind they are and what sex? I know there is many ways and may not even be able to tell since still so small. I have seen...

Im in a 55 gal long they are doing fine

None of mine are fighting. They actually stay together

I just got me 2 dwarf gouramis and some other type of gourami. Its a blue something and it really looks white with stripes on it. The dwarfs are red/with blue outline and one is powder blue with red outline. They are both males (SUPPOSIBLY). I dont know what the other one is, but I heard that...

Well I just updated from a 29 gal. to a 55 gal. so I wont be getting anyther tank for some time. Ive had the silver dollars over a yr. now they are full grown(I THINK) and not very big. One is maybe 4-5 inches at the most. The BGK is still small Ive had him/her for about 3 months. And the...

right^ And I keep it in there as an extra precaution too. Its supposed to be pretty good for the fish from what I hear and have read. As long as you dont over do it. All my fish have been fine

Thanks for the feed. Also I didnt mean that I left the black light on with the other light. I only turn it on by itself at night. Would PetsMart, or a PetCo have this moonlight? And will it go in my hood like the reg lights?

I have a 55 gal. tank with 1 black fin shark, 1 bala, 1 Black Ghost Knife, 2 Silver dollars, and 1 peacock eel 1st question None of my fish really feed at the top most feed in the middle and bottom. I mainly feed flakes, and sometimes frzen bloodworms for the eel and BGK. I was wanting to get...

My silver dollars are full grown. Ive had them for over a yr. One is larger then the other but its maybe 5 inches and the other is around 4. The black fin shark does not bother anything. Ive notcied when there is 2 of them they will fight, but it dont bother anything else. Its very peacful...

Its a 55 gal. and I have one of the tubes. A hampster tube lol. Yea he goes in there soemtimes, but he mostly stays in my cave thing I have. Its not really big I know he must be tired of stayin in it. there was a whole in the cave he would go insde and never come out, so I stuffed it, so he'll...

Ive never seen any GBR's at the stores Ive been too. And yea I think it was the BGK that ate my guppies, but my BGK is only a few inches long. I didnt know his mouth was big enough to eat a guppie. Do you think a school of tiger barbs will nip at my fish listed?

Ive got a 55 gal and add salt every water change. Maybe 2-3 small handfulls. my fish are fine. Even when I had ghost shrimp they were fine. AS for plants I do believe it causes them to fall apart, or so it seemed with mine whenI had them. Leaves feel off pretty quick

Yes I have 2 silver dollars, a bala shark, a black fin shark, and a peacock eel. Oh and 2 algea eaters. Im wanting to add a couple more fish with colors that wont bother my other fish, not too small though. Maybe about 5-6 inches. Maybe a little active too.
