    Blood Red Parrot pair: nearly free in Birmingham Alabama

    I have a pair of these that I have raised since they were juveniles over the past 2 years. They are now about 5 inches and have taken on their natural orange-peach adult colors. I really just need a home for them, so will give them away for free, but would be interested in any interesting...

    Anubias attached to driftwood

    I keep reading that people attach anubias to driftwood. I have recently split a large anubias and tied some pieces to my driftwood. Can I expect it to actually root itself to the driftwood, or is it going to require being tied on for life? Should I cut the roots back from what it had...

    I have had guppies and platys that produced offspring, but I recently decided to start breeding convicts. My goal is to produce a reliable source of live food for my oscar and other SA cichlids (Jack Dempsey, Firemouth). The livebearers were prolific, but the survival rate of my fry was very low...

    How long until photos are approved?

    I am new here, so I can understand some moderation of photos, but how long does it take to get my photos approved? Must all photos be approved first? I would like to post a question but can't really do it until I can give photo evidence to make the post worthwhile. . Thanks. Oh, and I...

    Help me sex this Convict Cichlid

    yes, I know that convicts are supposed to be the easiest to sex, but this one has me stumped. Everything I have read says that males have long pointed filamentous dorsal fins (which this one definitely has) and that females have peach colored scales on their bellies. So what the heck is this...
