Yeah they have such great variances in changes from white to blue gray in a moment

Have you had yours a while? I've had my demasoni since May and two red zebra since maybe August and the zebra have out grown him ALOT probably double his size.. BTW dems are so pretty aren't they? Love em. I also have red top Hongi that get very pretty too

I saw a fluval in tank filter at the LFS and I had planned on getting a fluval 306 to replace my busted eheim can so I was wondering if anyone had heard of or had experience with the in tank filters.. Should I stay with canisters or are these a good option to consider.

Never thought about that... Thanks! I did take the rocks out and move the substrate around and changed about 5 gal of water for now I'm going to do a test tomorrow and then more water if need be. I'm using RO water now as well. My neighbor just got a system we are sharing so hopefully that helps...

Nah I've got good tap its right around 20ppm doing some water changes I believe I have too much rock down so I removed some and agitated it so my filter can remove some of the bio waste doing the change in a bit with a gravel vac so that should help some too

Well cleaning the canister shouldn't be a problem I just took it and cleaned it out and hooked it back up to find its case was cracked at the handle.. Tried to exchange it at the LFS and I had lost the receipt so now I have a marineland penguin 200 as back up til I get my replacement from...

Just checked my levels everything is good except my nitrates here are my parameters: pH: 8.1 NH3/NH4+ : 0ppm NO2: 0ppm NO3: 80ppm+ It seems to be in between 80 and 160 range color indicates darker than 80 but not as dark as 160. Running eheim ecco pro 2234 I think is the number it filters up...

Aren't psuedo supposed to have the same temperament as demasoni?

Anyone?

My friend is starting up his first cichlid tank and was asking me for some colorful African options, hes running an aqueon filter made for 300 liter max. So in the range of old worlds and his size tank give me as much variety in color as you can and I'll pass it along to him

I'm new to this site but that has to be the prettiest nano I've ever seen

Looks to be about the happiest betta I've ever seen. :) what a step up from the cup at the store

Very beautiful!

My 37 just started stocking so fish are somewhat limited.

Yes I know the plants are toast... But as far as rocks and driftwood do I need to go thicker??

Lol sounds like my LFS they know little to nothing about sexing the fish.. I had to search the internet on ways to do that for myself

Here's an updated pic with what I put in as far as rock and wood... Ignore the platys and tetra. Lol

I was going to say that same thing... Sure fire way to tell is the black spot.. If its sparkly its a girl.. Guess the girls like shiny things :)

Welllllll I have a good 2-3 inches of gravel mixed with plant substrate and I'm not really wanting to go completely empty to change it plus the money I already have in that stuff so hopefully it will work for them... There's already 1 dem and a lab in and they don't seem unhappy with it.. I'm...

I'll update a pic of it on my lunch break today so you guys can possibly make suggestions ie: more boulders, wood etc

As far as scaping goes 1/3 of my tank is boulder and 1/3 driftwood with gravel substrate as of now I have it planted heavily but that will most likely be destroyed

The only bad thing is the LFS has the best selection of fish but you may end up with it belly up inside a day. Haven't had any problems from the PetSmart.. Wish we had a decent fish store closer than 2 hrs away.. :/

By giving him all but 3 of the fish I have now.. :)

Most will say no but I have a female convict in with a male female pair of rams had them for a while now all fully grown with no problems... The convict will give chase during feeding but other than that they all swim together.. On that note though I'm resetting to all small Africans in place of...

Wow its totally opposite where I'm from the LFS is quite shady and pet smart has a few employees that are very knowledgeable about cichlids and a few that are the same with saltwater fish....
