Yeah I've heard they can be pretty aggressive, more so than gardneri.

Gardneri just attacks his food but the gularis was attacking the siphon and the net etc. Always wants to know what I'm doing in his palace. I'm reading i may need to house the female separately unless spawning.Yeah I've heard they can be pretty aggressive, more so than gardneri.

Sorry. I live on a natural spring..some idiot put the house where they should not have. We have 2 sump pits and etc.
Get tons of dehumidifier water each day.
My friend told me to use that Instead of hooking up an RO since I won't be using that much RO type water.
So no RO unit. Seller convinced me I don't need it.

Thank you. I knew you all would talk sense with reasons for me. I can buy it when I go back at the end of the month to pick up the plecos. I'll just keep watering the plants. In the mean time I've softened the water with IAL and peat. Little buggers have good appetites. I just want them to be able to have spawns should they desire to. They really have personality.I am with Brook on the dehumidifier.
Mine makes almost 2-4 g a day!!

Can I Use Dehumidifier Water? | eHow
Far from a real link that I like to provide ,but without a true scientific test every unit can be different.
I've been part of many threads on this...
Always NO!
Now the rough news on the ro....
If you are well water you will be pushing the limit of the unit IMO.
It WILL work as long as you have enough pressure, but you may really go through media/cartridges...
Like hjsvt said a new membrane(TFC) will be around $50 but I would replace it so you are new day 1...
As for prices on other cartridges , this is why I use BRS for my RO/DI supplies....
@$25 for the unit you should get it.
See what they cost new and know they have NO MOVING PARTS...
Only the carts/media needs replacing.
They are as simple to hook up as can be.
I had no clue and was more then a little nervous before mine.
I went through $$$$ before on home distillers with the last commercial unit costing almost $400 and burning out element in 1 1/2 years($150 replacement )
He has all kinds of corys. The loxonus or however it's spelled was there too. I'm thinking eventually about some metae. Need to wait but I know where to get them. I'm also thinking about porthole livebearers. I can get the scientific name in the next post. I forgot what it is just now. They are cute, they breed prolifically and my friend has them.I use egg crate in lieu of lids sometimes but doesn't help if you have small jumpers.
I love metae. They were my first fish purchase of my own. They're actually pretty difficult to find...sold to me as panda cories.
I've never actually seen albino paleatus in person that's pretty cool
Was the live bearer by chance the cuban lima

Can I ask what BRS is? Just curious. Always looking for links on well priced supplies.
This is a pretty basic FAQ on RO/DI but it might help answer questions. This link also has some good information. If you have other questions about RO, ask away, I'll try to answer the best I know!

This is my friend's website. He doesn't ship anymore but that doesn't mean I can't. It's just not worth the hassle to him. Plus he lives way in the country, so the post office is a drive.

I believe that he is asking about Limia vitatta.
