Female German Blue Ram
I've been observing very closely and have seen no aggression still; hard to say what is going on. Unfortunately she is not doing any better (but also no worse) so I guess I'll just have to keep tabs and see what happens.- kribensis12

Female German Blue Ram
Hey Byron. I would suspect that normally, but I've been paying pretty close attention to them as of recent and the male does not seem to be interested in her whatsoever - positive or negative. She'll swim right in front of his face and he does not even respond - and she does not act afraid of...- kribensis12

Female German Blue Ram
Does anyone have any ideas? I think she might be too far gone, but if not, I'd like to save her if possible.- kribensis12

Female German Blue Ram
Hey guys, looking for some insight here. I have a 20g tank (well planted, caves, driftwood etc.) with some community fish and a mated pair of rams (Golden male, German blue female). They spawned a few times unsuccessfully and then are COVID-19 hit, my tanks kinda hit the back burner (as in...- kribensis12

RO water filter questions
You would need to purchase an actual RO unit such as this (I have this exact one, works great) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00204CQF6/?tag=ff0d01-20 and then determine what additional stages you would like. A filter like this (4 stage) typically does this: Step 1: Sediment Filter Step 2: Carbon...- kribensis12

Help identify Pelvicachromis species?!
I'll second Colin_T here - that is definitely a male Pelvicachromis Pulcher and he does appear to be stressed from the move. I've always thought kribs were a little butt-hurt about being moved - seemed that mine would take 2-3 days to really come around. How is he doing now? Any updated pictures?- kribensis12

Kribensis breeding behaviour?
Hello! Kribensis in my experience are much more showing when it comes to breeding, often dancing/shimmying at each other. It sounds like she is likely to have laid eggs, or will be soon. The most easy way to be positive that this is imminent would be to look and see If you see her ovipositor...- kribensis12

Most unusual request
I see both sides, but I'd be willing to argue that it is not cruel. Lets break this down: 1. Clearly it's not cruel in the wild for fish to eat other fish, as it's part of their ecosystem. 2. Therefore, the real question we are asking is: "Is it cruel to intentionally feed live fish to one...- kribensis12

Blue rams with kuli loaches?
If the temperature is not an issue, I would not expect too much trouble. Even when breeding, in my experience, Rams are not that aggressive/territorial. That doesn't mean that all Rams are this way, but in the 4 times I've had Rams I've only ever witnessed sustained aggression if there are two...- kribensis12

Neolamprologus leleupi
I totally get it - I don't mind aggressive fish. I just prefer when the aggressive fish are aggressive sometimes, but can also be chill. That's why I mainly stick to dwarf cichlids - tons of personality, beauty and the occasional aggression without me living in fear of waking up to a bunch of...- kribensis12

Neolamprologus leleupi
Beautiful! I had some back in the day - but they were very aggressive and I eventually sold them. I expected aggression, but usually with Africans if there is enough rock work and tank space they'll be OK - that was NOT my experience with these guys.- kribensis12

So guys, here is one I made last week: Preface: I don't make traditional bread very often, because it usually goes bad before we eat it all (we don't eat a lot of bread?). I have felt inspired recently to try it out. https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/back-of-the-bag-oatmeal-bread-recipe...- kribensis12

Zeke's Kitchen Creations
Hey guys - I was inspired by Trashbin's Food Chronicles and thought I'd do something similar! I may be a dad with two kiddos and working full time, but I LOVE to cook/bake; I even have a VERY small time instagram #zekeskitchencreations; I don't do it as a "oooo look at me, I'm phenomenal" - I...- kribensis12
