    Rotkeil Question

    Thanks for the input guys. Too expensive for me to add more. I will have to remove 1 of them. One other thought, would it work if i added more gold or green severums?

    Rotkeil Question

    I recently got 2 Rotkeil's. How well do 2 of them normally go together? I have had severum's before with no issues. But with these 2, one seems to be getting beat up a bit. Should I separate and just keep 1? Or is there a different solution?

    Interesting observation

    I would agree sight plays a role. I bought some large clown loaches last year. The guy double bagged them, putting newspaper between the two bags. They travel better and are less stressed if they can't see outside the bag, was the reasoning he provided.

    Clown Loach Substrate

    What do people find is the best substrate for Clown Loaches? I have some medium sized gravel in there now. I am considering changing to a finer black gravel as this would look nicer against the blue LED lights. What does everyone use, or alternatively, what is the most appropriate for...

    Berneys catfish (smaller salmon catfish)

    They can be very fast, so not sure if thats why they need the space. The ones I had, easily exceeded 15cm. You usually buy them in the 10-15cm range here.

    Berneys catfish (smaller salmon catfish)

    I have kept them a few times. The most I had at 1 time was 3. They are a schooling fish. Big appetites but I did not witness any aggression. When resting, they would generally lay side by side like a row of parked cars. Very beautiful fish. I sold them on because my tank was getting too crowded...

    Aqua One 1500R

    Has anyone bought one of these, or has any information on these? Dimensions are supposed to be 1500x55x66, somewhere else says 1500x50x66. To me, that works out to be 500-520 litres. However the Aqua One website is saying it holds 400-420 litres. Can anyone confirm if it is in the 500...

    Spot Raphael Breeding Assistance

    Basing on advice I have received. Im not clear on the history on them being imported. Based on the advice Im given, I would then assume the collection site for the ones that were imported would match it to being Pectinifrons.

    Spot Raphael Breeding Assistance

    Thanks everyone for the input. I am quite confident I have the Agamyxis Pectinifrons. There is definitely someone in Australia that is breeding them. Or was, until they passed away recently. I dont think that guy is sharing information as he is trying to track down new adults to continue...

    Freshwater Dolphin Fish

    Cool. Would it be odd to show bad signs more than 12 hours after the waterchange? And no bad signs from any of the other fish?

    Freshwater Dolphin Fish

    Thanks for your input. He did not make it. Any idea what could have caused the swim bladder problem? He was eating fine just hours beforehand.

    Freshwater Dolphin Fish

    I have had a small Freshwater Dolphin Fish for about a month now. I have noticed it eating and acting normal. Out of nowhere today, even after eating, he started to act funny. He looks like he can't control his swimming, and was spinning upside down and no just sitting on the bottom on his...
