Just had to share this pic, I couldn't resist. It's one of those pics you know your never gonna get again. I swear that little sucker was looking at me!

I have free swimmers! mumrah Ok so I took your advice and a week ago I had one of my pairs lay eggs and let them raise their own. It is just the two of them in the 10 gal tank. Its very hard to not try to get involved, but I have managed to let their instincts take over. I am happy to say...

Hey Toirtis Thanks for the reply. I made a mistake in calling it a pint it is more of a quart. The reason I use such a small tank is because if I used anything bigger, they would never be able to see the Walter worms. I tried the 2.5 gal and my mortality was 100% because I think they...

I have made a somewhat a unsuccessful attempt at raising german blue ram fry. I have a death ratio of 96% to 100%. I have almost tried everything. Here it goes: When fry eggs have been fertilized I left them in tank till they started to wiggle, the parents moved them, and I never found them...

Yes all the others are in good condition, especially the tigers. They are their normal active selves. I tried doing some research on the web and got zip. All my water levels are normal and within range, so I totally agree with you on the red flag. From just conversations with others it seems...

I started out with 12 ghost shrimp and now I have 8. Below is what fish I have. Of the 4 that died, I only found the shell of one. But that has been a good long time now. What amazes me most is the ability for the female shrimp to be constantly pregnant.

Here is a link that has some info http://www.fishprofiles.com/interactive/compatibility.asp?action=Show+Compatible+Species&salinity=Freshwater&sci=Puntius%20tetrazona

I know the Rams are really sensitive to the PH levels...mine is currently at 7.8. From the info I've read on them, they like to be around mid 6 to low 7, but mine are still going strong.

I can offer advice from my own experiences, I have 4 rams currently in the 100 gal but previously had them in a 29 gal with all the fish listed below. I didn't have any problems with the exception of the rams being very territorial. I didn't see any fin nipping but they do ram each other...I...

I appreciate it, I've bought over 5 different bulbs now and I still keep going back to the one I can't have....looks like I'll be doing your trick.

Went to my lfs expert and he said to feed the african butterfly fish live feed and that will keep him from seeing his tankmates as the local buffet. He also said that he has never had his eat his tankmates (variety of cichlids). I think I'm going to take the plunge and get him...I'll let you...

Went to my lfs expert and come to find out zoo med bulbs require an electronic ballast and that zoo med products are 5 yrs advanced on the bulb market, seems us poor souls are just trying to catch up.

I am looking into getting a butterfly fish but here is my problem, I am soooo afraid that he will eat my little boys. The smallest fish I have is the White Clouds and my others are not much bigger. He will be going into a 100 gal tank. If I get the smallest that I could get, I think it will...

Ya know that is the only thing that makes sense...I'm so nervous about buying these guys when they sell them is mass quantities in the chain stores.

I am the proud owner of a zoo med ocean view 24" bulb that will not light up. It flashes real pretty but that is it. I noticed a little note attached saying to leave the bulb on for about 5 minutes and it should turn on. ONE HOUR later, it still makes pretty flashes. I have 20 watt ballast...

My tiger barb two weeks ago was about 1/2" in size. Two weeks later he was 3x his size. I'm not talking about bloat, I'm saying physical size. He morphed into the incredible hulk in two weeks! Unfortunately, he passed just a couple days ago. I was wondering if anyone else has ever experienced...
