I hope so too, its hard to see a poly go even its not your own
I changed substrate, and water drop from 80 degress to 65 degress, and poly got so stress on the process. Stupid me i didnt use warm water to add in the tank. So i ask

and

and they told me to get the congi and put it in the cooler with warm water.
I forget how many pairs u have. If they were cichlids you'd have babies all over the place. Wonder why polys are so hard to breed.
If you think about how incredibly different the circumstances are between their tank and their normal breeding in the wild, it's kinda amazing they ever get any species to breed in captivityThats a really good question.

So true. Duanes has some vids of cichlids in their natural habitat and it really is amazing. Maybe polys just arent horny enough
So the last couple days my endli/ansorgii has been sitting with his ass up in the air...
I haven't been worried at all because you know, polys are weird. I mean my new koliba spends 90% of his life with his head literally buried in the sand. But then it crossed my mind that maybe this is another case of the backbone issues that my senegalus is having... I really hope not. He's eating normally, swimming normally, nothing has changed except he looks like a skunk about to spray. anyone have any thoughts?
