just last night the mother just gave up and spat her brood. she was getting chased a lot and was sick of it. she spat into the corner behind a log ornament so at least they had half a chance before i could net them. she'd spat 6 a few days ago, hadnt picked them up and i couldnt save them, they...

i recently, about 4-5 days ago i gave away my oscar (that i assumed was male due to shape and aggression) to a rescuer, because it started too many fights. however, ever since, my assumed female has been... wandering, looking lonely and confused. bit of background: i bought them 10 months ago...

they currently reside in the 75 with two oscars. they ARE NOT chased and they get plenty of food access even with their new buddies lol. they are unbelievably cute! the female is a bit resistant to the males masculine charms, but he'l win her over he's a stunner the male, he has great...

she has been in the tank for 2 DAYS. i adore her. she was my beautiful unknown for a lil while. now she is absolutely screwed. she had been bullied, so i removed the adult agressors to a time-out in another tank. THANK GOD i did, or they might get whatever this is. there were 2 small juvies left...

right so... what is it? lol! x x

right so i look in my brothers tank to check for any willing fry donators (lol) and see the last birther kinda thin but normal looking. she turns around and it looks like she has something round lodged in the side of her stomach. its like she ate a large round pellet and it fell out of the...

im havingmega problems with one tank. its a grow out for juvies so has an incredible bioload and needs extra care and filtration. however. the sand was play sand from a garden centre, and has recently turned blue in the lower layers. a week ago i done a pwc and shook up ALL the sand and removed...

i thought it was a peacock last time so i posted the unfortunate holding event as "GRRR peacock fail..." but this time im gonna be good and let her hold full term without me messing at all :) same deal as last time... ages (days maybe a week!) spent trying to get her to eat and turns out shes...

so i asked the lfs if i could strip the pregnant female and buy the babies, leaving the mum there. the dude then says yeah, we've had her months and cant seem to seel her. take the babies AND the fish for nothing, if you want. YESSSS!! :lol: first time i saw her 2 weeks ago she had a mouth...

it was sold as a cobalt zebra, but the mouth/length is very different to the others, and its a very dark blacky navy colour. what do u think? i dont even know its gender... gets flirted with by my males and nudges my females alot. might be both :L

my peacock is 4.5 inches, but hadnt been eating for ages. i was proper worried. what do i notice 15 mins ago? its got a few fry in there! developed ones! i thought it was male! i go to catch it. but this log thing i have has CAVES in its ROOTS that i cant access!!! after loads of waiting/...

so heres my three beauties.... the best they had in the lfs tank :) but.... genders. i assumed all female cos of the few egg spots, but the little cobalt acts fairly masculine and the red (is it an OB?) acts shy. None of them fight (very lucky!). the internet shows varing info, like all cobalts...

these little beauties are the real deal, not the false ones some pedicure shops pass off as doctor fish. and my question is, can you breed them in a home tank? what conditions? AND how big do garra rufa actually grow to? thanks :) i have four in total, looks like 1 fem three m or 2m 3fm
