Very little info online about ideal parameters or triggers for breeding these. I understand that they are now extinct in the wild. I've have what was sold to me as a young breeding pair about a year and a half ago, before the Brazilian dam was built that eradicated their native habitat. I...

Hey everyone, I had posted this question before and there's another whole thread of me talking to people about this issue. I am posting this again as an "update" while in reality I still really need help and potentially some expert advice. I have also asked this same question to another forum...

Hello Everyone, I wanted to show you my newborns. On April 27th I found a lot of eggs in one stone and my couple of convicts bravery taking care of them. So I move them to a breed aquarium with a little hope of getting results since is their first time and they are less than 2 inches long. But...

Does anyone have any hybrid projects that they are working on, that aren't the typical hybrids(Flowerhorns, Red Texas, Blood parrots)?

Hey everyone, Long does it take for Peacock Cichlids on average to get to 1-2 inches after losing their egg sacks? I realize water changes, quality, and space all make a difference and because of that Ill lay out my plan. If I have a holding female, I would either strip her or relocate her into...

This pair of mine after two successful batches, now they are busy cleaning the slate since a month but never layed eggs yet. All water parameters are accurate and Ph is always between 7 and 7.5 and TDS is always between 140ppm and 200. And tank is situated near other breeding tanks and is free...

Hey guys! This question has probably been asked a billion times but I'll ask again just because I can't find it anywhere online. What two subspecies of African cichlids breed to create OB or RB peacocks? I can take the wild card guess and assume you take a yellow one and breed it with a blue...

This is my end goal for a Red Texas line, this isn't really talking about the time it would take to make a line or those things, just my goal. Large short body with a square like shape. Semi water kok/a water kok that is on the smaller side. Thick white pearling and a cherry red color for the...

I like short body RT but I don't like how their head slopes down like this one Is it possible for me to get my male and female RT to have Nuchal Humps so they don't look like that? And would it be possible for them to have Nuchal Humps without grooming? I'm hoping to get them to look like this.

Would it be possible for me to breed my Red Texas in a way so that all the Females are shortbodies while the males have normal bodies?

I want to breed a cichlid pair in my outdoor pond 300 gallon but not sure what cichlid to breed drop suggestions that would work

Hey guys, Our Polleni Pair randomly had their first spawn lastnight, unfortunatly the female was stressed and she was eating the eggs, we managed to save a few. Next time should we leave the babies in there if shes not stressed? or take them out? They are alone in a 3x2x2 so we can leave them...

I believe the male to be a King Kamfa and the female a Kamalau both showing excellent traits. From what I can tell both are 100% red, worm pearl crossing the forehead and neck, stubby face, uniformed mouths and extremely Koky. I'll probably share the fry with the community, if anyone has any...

Trying last ditch to part with my rays before I have to organize plans for them. $1200 proven breeding trio, 17” Thai Black Diamond male, 22” Mantilla hybrid female, 17” Motoro female. I will be driving from TN to CT for the holidays and would be happy to deliver along that route. I am also...

I just bought a can of 50ct Red Worms from my local bait store, I'm not sure how long it will last in my fridge before they die off in the lil can, I did some small time research online and I found out that I can raise and breed my Red worms properly feeding them table scraps, potato peels...

Hey everyone, My Vieja Guttulatus and Vieja Hartwegi recently started to breed after they hit about two years old. One batch of fry is about two and a half months old now, and I've been finding dead ones each morning. Sometimes I will find two or three, and sometimes I will wake up to ten dead...

I recently got two cockatoo cichlids and when I first got them they were both very colorful. I think one is a female and one is a male, but the female has lost all her yellow color. Could this be because the “male” is actually a female and is the dominant one? The “male” is always chasing away...

Posting all 5 of my rays for sale in hopes of parting with them before I sell the tank and setup as well. Great group of proven rays for anyone interested in getting into breeding! The male is a Thai black diamond, and I keep him housed with 2 female mantilla hybrids, a female motoro, and a...
