    Breeding White Cloud Minnows In A Community Tank?

    I sort of have the same question, but with a twist. In my community tank, I have one of those clear floating breeder boxes with the V divider shelf on bottom. Like for guppies. I took out the V part and put in some java fern and added 6 WCMs. Nothing yet. Wondering if I can leave the adults...

    Male Kribensis being aggressive to female

    I posted this picture on this forum and asked if they were male and female and got back the answer Yes.https://www.fishforums.net/attachments/img_20210830_112445757-jpg.142536/ The female is shorter and fins are different than the males. Thanks

    Male Kribensis being aggressive to female

    I got a pair of kribs at the end of August. Only fish in the tank. They have been fine together all this time. Very colorful with the bright purple bellies. They are always swimming around together and doing the wiggley dance. I couldn't find the female today. Then I saw her hiding at the...

    Kribensis sexing and feeding questions

    I picked up this pair at LFS. They were hanging around together so I presumed they were a pair. I just wanted to verify they are opposite sex. The one on top is a little further away in the picture so it may appear they are the in same length. Actually the one top I presume is a male is...

    Kribensis cave questions

    This is my first experience with Kribs. I have a male and female I believe are paired. They followed each other around in the tank at LFS and did these little dances around each other. I see where people say that their caves need to have only one way in and out. The closest to a cave structure...

    Newb cichlid question

    Are they still aggressive and not suitable for a community fresh water tank? I'm thinking a single one in a 29 gal.

    Will a Bolivian Ram starve itself to death before it eats food floating in front of it?

    I think you're right. Not really the impression I got when reading about them online before I got them. Thanks

    Will a Bolivian Ram starve itself to death before it eats food floating in front of it?

    Sadly they both died. I guess they aren't the fish for me.

    Will a Bolivian Ram starve itself to death before it eats food floating in front of it?

    Well, my rams are still not eating that I know of, even when food is raining down by them. I have been keeping them hungry in hopes it would motivate them. The only food I know they eat is on Sundays I feed them frozen blood worms (thawed 1st) from a baster in front of their face. Even then...

    Newb cichlid question

    I wish I thought of this when I was at LFS I would have taken a picture, but you cichlid keepers probably know what I am talking about. When you read about named Cichlids it often says they are aggressive and don't get along with much else. At LFSs, I see tanks that are labeled "assorted...

    Aquarium dwarf water lily pruning question

    I got this dwarf water lily last Thursday. It already had the holes in the leaves. I don't want to kill it by pruning the wrong thing. I really don't want to cut the pinkish purple leaves if it isn't necessary. So do I need to cut leaves that have holes in them or can I leave them be and it...

    Ammonia dilemma

    The cows you describe would be the lucky ones with normal family owned farms. Not so with Factory farms (that the government wants all farms to go to so they are in control via government policies - putting family farms out of business). There is no grazing pasture for these cows. They stay...
