can;t copy and paste on fast reply, on add reply my computer shuts down,try one more time

Tropheops sp red cheek(likoma) sorry but I can't post any pics myself

Looks great,showed my husband how w/pics,he laughed at me, when I said,"WE could do that too"Maybe someday.

Mine ate alot of diff. plants , they don't like Borneo fern or vals to much,anubis did'nt last either,I tried lots of vegs for mine, could'nt take the plant loss and got rid of them.cute when they were little but piggys when older

We have these too 1hr NW of calgary,but I've never been able to get a decent picture.

Try Folex it comes in white bottle w/green writing, sold at home hardware.It has worked for all pet and most other stains except red juice my kids had spilt.It has even taken out tom cat spray!!!!Don't ask

I have the 1200 and really like it , I also have not tried other canisters.This one is 3yrs old and i've had no problems,my others are all aquaclear diff. sizes.

[There most be 20 -25 fry. Is that normal for her first time?? Thats really good for first,and they usually have lrger batches from now on,that 53 was her 3rd batch.Good luck and have fun w/new babies.Another sugg.you could try a netted tank divider,haven't tried one myself yet.

I use the net kind that hangs on side of the tank,I stripped my red zebra and put 53 in it(her biggest batchyet).I like them because they use same water, Just be careful when doing water changes,I have 2 of these net kinds, they hold more babies and don't escape.I usually put plants in(real/plastic)and use magnetic glass cleaner to hold away from side,other fish get stuck.Bn plecos are great for keeping net clean as well.Those last few are always a bugger to get out ,Good Luck

My girl has 4 kribs and 2 boulivian rams in her 20+ tank, none of them are breeding yet.I could see a problem once kribs pair and start to breed, but we are watching them closely. She wanted guppys too,males dont last,so we put in whiteclouds for top portion.So far no problems.

I would try home built eg tumbler,haven't tried this yet, but what have you got to loose.Use old fish food container,drill hole for air tube in bottom,feed air tube in, then put air diffuser on,add sponge to fit(so eggs on top not to tumbled)drill hole in lid, Pls try without eggs as I haven't tried this myself yet.Just an Idea?????

Can't wait to see your pics,I'd like to try the same with my bns, not fancy like yours ,but still my favorites.

I have corycats and rubber lip pleco and reg. pleco in 80 gal with peacocks and elec yellow,severum,blue acara, acei, the rubber lip will take on the larger pleco(5x)no problem.Ifind the rubber lip will clean the rocks better.
