geophagus

Just wanted to know if anyone had some insight on the full latin name (im assuming the genus is geophagus but what is the species?) for Geophagus sp. Tapajos "red head". This geo is fairly common in the hobby now-a-days and I can't imagine it hasn't been described by the scientific community...

Hope everyone is keeping cool, during the horrible heat. All fishes are healthy, only getting rid of them since I decided to go a different route. Need them out quickly so taking all reasonable offers. The prices are already great, I think- But still willing to take offers- because I need them...

Picked up a 265 a few months back for 400 bucks due to a leaky seal. After resealing it and months of selecting what fish and what kind of setup I want to run I am finally about complete. Fish are in it and they are happy but I am still fine tuning for the next few weeks. Guess I should list...

Hi everyone, A week ago today I purchased 7 sub adult (3-3.5") tapajos. I acclimated them for at least an hour through drip acclimation. The tank is a 75g that has been setup for a while but removed all the plants and driftwood (sold that stuff to buy new stuff) got new low tech plants and...

Hey guys, A few weeks ago I posted a picture of my Redheads with minor HITH. Ive been treating them with meds (metronidazole). Ive been treating them for the recommended time on the packaging, but I want to be sure that the parasite is gone. I was treating them by medicating the aquarium...

Most of the Geophagus species that I've been researching are listed as peaceful and many of the Severums that I've been looking at as well are listed as semi-aggressive. Is there a possibility of these two species co-existing in a peaceful community tank or no?

Hey, this fish was sold to me under red head tapjos but I'm having my doubts as pictures of these fish online look very different. It's defiantly a type of geophagus but I don't think he/she is a redhead. Any help is appreciated
