Cichla + Potamotrygon Tank : I need your help in conception

[M@T!@$]

Only one male Potamotrygon left... he killed the 2 females by harassing them back in 2012... I bought a new female (always P. leopoldi) and he killed her when she got 18-20 months old (early 2014)... I tried again, with a 5 years old female, bigger than him... it worked during 1.5 years, with 2 spawning (each time 4 pups) and during the 3rd pregnancy, he killed her again (2015)... I had a 5th female (P. motoro) he was with during 2.5 years, until she became mature... and then... I let you guess... yeah ! he killed her (April 2016)...

I have enough with this bastard... I stopped trying... he will stay there alone till... who knows ?

Nice tank

But it's in need of more videos, at least three a week

 

[ElTofi]

ouhhhh... you're becoming a demanding public... If I'd post 3 videos weekly, you'll soon be bored... wouldn't you ?

 

[ElTofi]

looooooong time again from last thread feeding...

well...

Exit the Cichla (cause they were eating every single stingray newborn)
Exit the Myleus (cause they were eating every single egg or larvae in the pond)
Exit the male Stingray (cause he killed 3 females in 3 years)

And more volume for Panaque schaeferi, Silver Arowanas and 2 groups of Pterophyllum altum (25) and Geophagus winemilleri (15), plus a few others, like Uaru, Heros...

Take a deep breath and dive in...

quite a long time since last update... my tank is now at 45% for 2 months as I have a leak problem. I will solve it within the next weeks with a little help from a friend...

waiting for the tank to be fixed up, check this underwater video of my monsters :
