My BGK is my most personable fish, I absolutely love that guy. He usually sleeps in his log, but he can sense when Im near the tank and comes alive, he gets up and starts to wiggle and wag his tail like a dog. Then I'll call him out and he starts coming out slowly, an inch at a time then he...

That sounds like an awesome cross. Ive been wanting a pair of grammodes because of their smaller size, but I bet these get bigger due to the umbee genes.

Thanks, in all my years of fishkeeping I never actually moved a big tank, they always stayed where they were set up. It is going across the house so I will drain it all the way. Im looking forward to setting it up more to my liking this time. Thanks :)

Hello friends, So Im moving my 125, right now only two fish in it, an 8 inch black ghost knife and a two inch convict. Im running one big sponge filter and two hangonbacks, both marineland 400. Plan is to put the sponge filter driftwood and fish in a 50 gallon tote and to attach both HOBs to...

You'll get another one, Im sure of it. I'd like to get in line for the fry when it happens.

Damn, sorry to hear that. Nothing you can do.

How much do you want for the orphan fry :) j/k, excellent results, one fry is proof of fertility so you should have lots of fry soon, and Id like to be one of the first in line if you decide to sell them. Id take a dozen in a heartbeat and grow them out in my 75 and 125.

Post some pics of that glassbanger please! :D

Absolutely. A fish needs room to swim, explore, hide and change scenery.

A 75 gallon is as small as I'll go for any fish. I know some species can be kept in smaller tanks but I just cant settle for something like that. And id certainly never keep any cichlid in anything smaller than a 125.

There has been a lot of genetic recombining with convicts lately, on the one hand I dont like it, on the other hand the results are so nice I actually brought a little marble convict home from the lfs the other day. I never thought Id ever keep a convict but this one was a no brainer and fits...

Wow, what a brute. His genes need to go on for sure.

That white plastic lighting screen they sell at home depot, sorry I forget what its actually called.

I dont think he is dyed, but I suppose anything is possible. I'll post some pics after todays water change.

Im starting to think this guy is a hybrid, he definitely has that gold color on him but not all over. Hes still a little runt, and seems a bit off to me like his swim bladder or balance isnt just right, but not too obviously. I took a gamble because I just wanted a darn lemon in my tank so I...

These were and still are the best pair of oscars Ive ever seen. One day Id love to pair up a lemon and a red, just because those are my two favorite oscar types.

You know, I dont know. I didnt know about the black fins, either way I like this guy and he has that gold color that got me into wanting a lemon. I guess we'll see.

Thanks, I hope he lives up to that oscar quality, Im not sure about him because he really isnt exactly like a regular oscar, he actually seems a little runty, but I bought him because I really wanted one. Normally Id choose a livelier and healthier fish, but we'll see how he works out. He ate...

Ive been wanting one of these forever and was about to order one when one appeared at the lfs. Im down to just my severum and black ghost in my 125, and the lemon oscar will be the third and last fish in that tank. The sev is 4 inches, the bgk is about 7 and the lemon is tiny at 2 inches, so I...

Very nice fish. Im looking at a very similar looking one on aquabid, for almost $200 shipped, $90 is a killer price for a showy fish like that.
