Thanks guys. Yeah the true reds are stunning cichlids. Especially the female. If you have a pair together they look awesome

Cheers. True reds the spot on the tail is of centred towards the top Where as mayan is central to the tail. Once they mature you can certainly tell the difference. My friend who i got him from had a few mayans and trues in the same tank. Easy then to notice

My planted tank with tetra's and my true red terror, tank mates 3 filement barbs a humbug catfish few bristlenose plecs and a featherfin synodontis

I kept Rope fish with my old pair of oscars, Oscars that i have kept have always been quite placid, For example my pair i have at present at sooo peaceful tis untrue, even when spawning, think i iz luckeeee.... I have a group of rainbow fish with mine and a Birchir,and some kissing...

I feed mine Hiraki green and gold, bottom feeder pellets, frozen bloodworm, deshelled peas, frozen prawns, flake, frozen mussels, crab, get a sea food mix every now and again, rotating and never feeding just one food...... its good to do feeding spardically, missing the odd day, some days...

wow simply stunning

Thanks guys

Do not panic, oscars are right diva's...... If in a few weeks still not eating then try something, best thing to do is leave it a few days, then try, try a varied diet too as cichlids become fussy, if you can find feeder shrimp try these, bloodworm, hiraki floating pellets

Go and have a look on nd aquatics web page, also second hand
