Orino strange behavior??

[mjuniorc]

Mike,... my male orino is too small for your BIG DOMINANT FEMALE... The moment you put them together, you will end up a bling bling widow left in your tank and one addition to your freezer....

i meant in the future
but to be quite honest you seen my most of my collection bro... do you remember my lil orino, do you remember what tank i took him out of... yeah imagine him pushin my big boys back..... and now he is seperated because he is my instuctor/teacher fish, to my new guys... right now they are in class... subject is "HOW TO EAT PREPP"D FOODS"

bro...why not move that pile of rocks theyre always at and see what happens.
or you could always stick your hand in there and pester a bit.

 

[FunWow!]

They some fascination with them rocks in the corner thats for sure....They like them rocks. I didnt see them anywhere else in your tank just in that corner. Take them out and see what happens.

As for now, they are still in that corner..... looking at ROCKS??
And I am looking at those Rocks, too....

Thanks for the idea of taking them out... I will.... "cichla king" is coming to pick them up to a better place tomorrow....

Getting rid of them?? Well if you have the same problem later on with another fish it might be because of those rocks.

No... I was trying to sell them few times in the past, but end up keeping them. Orinos grow too slow compared to my other pbass in the tank.
My kelberi are pretty calm and cause no trouble. They will be the only cichla now... on their own.

aaawww...sucks to hear youre selling.
but i'd like to see what happens if you remove those rocks...

James,

You weren't kidding about the orinos owning the tank. Man, look at everyone on the otherside of the overflow. So you are you going to make this nice tank of your a kelberi species only tank? In fact, you should only keep kelberi of different varients in there. hehe.

Yeah, that's right. Cichla sp. kelberi variants...

So far only Rapps 1st, 2nd batch and Mike's Cearas..
I don't know anyone else in so cal has other source for Kelberi... but if you do ^_^
PM ME PLEASE>>>>
Hopefully in the next couple months I can add more different kelberi
from various collecting sites to my tank.

Interestingly they all have different color and shape.

I still have one MONO in there from Tong's aquarium.. My first Cichla...priceless...

thanks for your suggestion.
