    Firemouth Cichlid, bloated, breathing heavy, breeding tube protruding. Egg Bound? Infection of some kind?

    It has been a bit bloated for about a month, however, in the last couple days, it has gotten worse. At first, the firemouth was hiding more often, its mouth was stuck open all the time. I thought it was gill fluke. Treated the whole tank with Praziquantel and Levamisole. Treatment finished 2...

    Endlers with predators

    Is it possible to keep a healthy population of endlers with a larger fish that would eat them such as a firemouthcichlid? Say the endlers would breed as fast as the cichlids can eat them they would be able to sustain themselves?

    Love - Hate Relationship

    Hey all!    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I just wanted to show off my Purple Spotted Gudgeon, Dobby, and my Firemouth Cichlid, Susan.
