    Jack Dempsey Lookin' Better!

    I'm so happy to be able to say that my Dempsey is looking SO much better! But it makes me even happier to be able to say that I don't think that his eye is going to be a total loss after all! Woohoo! Sent from my SPH-L520 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Looking much better. Still not 100%, but a vast improvement! Excuse the floating food pieces! I had just fed them. Sent from my SPH-L520 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    PLEASE HELP! Jack Dempsey

    @Rivers2k: He seems to be doing better. But I'm pretty sure he's now blind in that eye. It is no longer bright white like it was. It has more or less, for lack of a better phrase, smoothed out. But he's eating and swimming around. With guidance from the albino that is in the tank with him. It's...

    PLEASE HELP! Jack Dempsey

    @Mogurako: I researched good tankmates for my lacecat and large cichlids were always mentioned as being good tankmates for the lacecat. Sent from my SPH-L520 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    PLEASE HELP! Jack Dempsey

    Update: I just realized that my lace catfish has a broken and exposed spine on one fin. I'm thinking that he and the Dempsey might have run into eachother. Which would explain what I am seeing sticking out of the Dempsey's eye. Is there anyway to remove it and can I still use the jungle tabs to...

    PLEASE HELP! Jack Dempsey

    I take pride in maintaining my aquariums. Besides this one I also have a 125 gallon with a tiger Oscar and another albino and a pleco. I've had them since they were barely 2 inches long and now they almost fill the tank. Then I have a 55 gallon reef tank, a 36 gallon with 3 African cichlids in...

    PLEASE HELP! Jack Dempsey

    It is a 75 gallon. I just did a 50% water change on Sunday night and the Dempsey was fine then. Last night is when this showed up. There is also an albino oscar and a lace catfish in the tank with him. They are both healthy. I retested my water and the tests are all coming back good. Sent from...

    Tiger and Albino Oscar spawning

    My Oscars were laying and fertilizing eggs yesterday and before I could get my pleco out, he ate the eggs. I was just wondering how often my Oscars might spawn? They are in a 75 gallon tank. By themselves for now. Although they usually have a pleco with them. Sent from my SPH-L520 using...

    Ghost mamas??

    This is the first time I've had Oscars. But I'm glad I got them! They are really fun fish and have awesome personalities. Plus, against all odds, I some how managed to get a breeding pair! I just picked two random ones (a tiger and an albino tiger) and they instantly hit it off. Next thing I...

    Ghost mamas??

    It kinda works out for me though. Cause instead of having to buy Rosies to feed to my Oscars, I just give them some of the fry instead.

    Ghost mamas??

    It doesn't help that Platys and Mollys are the jack rabbits of the fish world either!

    Ghost mamas??

    The few fry that dropped looked very small and were very weak. Unfortunately they didn't make it. :'( But hopefully the rest will once they drop.

    Ghost mamas??

    I think that is what happened. I move them into a hospital tank/maternity ward before they drop, and I guess I jumped the gun a little bit this time.

    Ghost mamas??

    No. Black molly and dalmatian lyre tail.

    Ghost mamas??

    Also, is it true that they can self abort the pregnancy?

    Ghost mamas??

    They are platys and mollys. They've been separated from the males for about 3 weeks now. I've heard they can store sperm for up to 5 batches. But I've been checking my females today and they still are squared off and have very noticable gravid spots. Could one of them have just done a test run...

    Ghost mamas??

    ....Ok.... I'm completely confused. I have fry in my tank (yay!!) But my females are still pregnant and none of them are dropping.... any ideas?

    Rainbow Shark and Plecostomus

    I guess my biggest concern really, is the size difference between the two. The Pleco is much bigger than the Shark. I guess I'll try it out and just keep an eye on them. Make sure they play nice with eachother. Lol.

    20 gallon HELP!

    I've been doing constant water changes since I've been having to treat for the velvet. This isn't my first go around with Platies, which is why I'm worried. They're like the jack rabbits of the fish world when it comes to breeding! Lol. I have a 5 gallon that I'm trying to get going to use as a...

    20 gallon HELP!

    I have just recently put together a 20 gallon tank that I was letting cycle before introducing the fish. My boyfriend, who was trying to be sweet, went and bought a bunch of fish and put them in to surprise me. Now I have 2 dalmation molly's, 2 black molly's, a rainbow shark and 10 various...
