  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
nice orino man :) i got mine today also:headbang2 and it looks very similar
 
Thanks.

I'm so nervous this time around.

I need to get my pH a little lower. I put 4 small pieces of driftwood in there when I had my first ones, but the pH is still over 7.
 
Thats a high temp recommendation... Is that kewl??? Is this a Peacock style fish??? Thanks

katapang leaves or west indian almond leaves will do the job, but over time your ph will gradually lower with the drift wood... i like low ph but there are others on the forum whos cichla do just fine in high ph.

they're doing well, thanks for asking. I fed them feeders last night (skipped the night I got them). The ocels got 3 each and the orino got 6 or so, but most of them were small rosies and guppies. The smallest ocel ate the largest rosy and had time getting it down, but is cool now. I held each one in the water for a couple seconds and then pulled them out and immediately dropped them in the water. They even started coming near my fingers sometimes. They still like to hide in the corners by the heaters and filter inlets but are getting less skittish. I'm probably going to try frozen bloodworms tonight along with some feeders.
