thanks..... they are nice and plump... they are so happy and healthy now in full salt too.. you can tell how healthy by the silver being bright.. verses it having dark tinge to it.. when ever you see the dark tinge..it is time to increase salt going from brackish to full eventually... so the skin condition improves...Death Pony;3757129; said:
thanks very much.. yes.. alot of people have no clue what they will need long term when they purchase the columbian cats..hopefully MFK helps in that dept. by educating alot more people....Bottomfeeder;3759102; said:

about three years... for the longest time it was brackish... thanks very much... that would be awesome.. perhaps you can go backish while they are smaller and add other brackish/salt water fish.. mine are too big now to add any .. but if you do it right... they can grow together.. let me know ....dgunrud;3759176; said:Both your fish and your dog in your avatar are beautiful!!!
I have always loved the columbians, I like you, began keeping them with oscars, but I could never grow them past 6 inches before they died, this was well before my MFK days, and I have now been educated as to why the low survival rate. I have since moved on to Frontosa and other African's, but I have an empty 90 gal just begging to be set up and filled with a group of juvie columbians!
In what time frame did you convert the tank from brackish to full salt?
cichlid pellets..massivore pellets, shrimp{cooked pieces} silversides..Frozen... they also even like algae pellets..knicks791;3759247; said:
