Just wondering

Just thought I'd update and share. They spawned about 10 days ago. No eggs made it. I believe they are still a little young especially the male who is a bit smaller.

So I had a group of 8 convicts. I raised.them till they paired off then sold all but one pair... What I thought was a female pink and a male black. Though the pink.had the elongated fins and orange color I believed it was female. The black seemed to have shorter fins but still orange. They...

Pre spawn behavior?

Convicts laid eggs last night....they never last though.

Have a south/central American cichlid tank and thinking of adding some algae. Seen some algae "balls" and what not in the pet store. I know algae is beneficial but I was wondering »»»»»»> (insert stupid question) will it be possible if I have an algae eater/pleco? Is there a way to.make it...

Don't see many fans of good old Oscars, or dempseys, or flowerhorns, peacock bass, freshwater baracudas, gar, knife fish, aerowannas, ...just curious if anyone out there fancies and of these.
