YAY Saved the Baby!!

LMAO ok, my 3 yr old likes it...but then again he likes the cats food too... BUSTED A GUT WHEN I READ THIS QUOTE (Master of Puppets @ Nov 4 2009, 07:30 PM) * I just say it cuz my dog got sick on flakes before. ihavefish : You should switch him over to pellets then

Very beautiful fish, I have a little Botia, did not know about the spear/spine eye thingy, moved him into the tank one day after doing a cleaning and thought I hurt him or one of his tank mates was trying to remove his eye, thought it was a bone from the socket, freaked me right out..lol, cool pic of yours sticking out!

Been offline for quite some time it seems, Dustin..you hadn't started last time I was on, that looks sick man! Would love to come take a look sometime.

Hey Ishkabod, it is the male I got from you, for some reason he re-paired up with a new female but defiantly a good daddy! now that they have started swimming easily 30 are there...sooo excited! So only had 4 babies left and they passed too...My male is now back with his first mate, they re-paired up after taking the first females fry out of the tank...I have the biggest slut or what???? Eggs all over again, the original 2 (Ishkabods) are now guarding the area and I am awaiting new babies...Again.

"I got my first arowana today thumbup.gif I got to pick the best one out of 20 at aqua giant. He is in a 94 gallon until the glass gets here in April rolleyes.gif " Grats on your new Fin Baby!!

So looking into my tank, there has been my big male and a new female hiding in the corner alot, sure enough, got me some wee ones..thought they were monogamous breeders..?.. very odd since his original female is in the tank too. Anyways, wondering what the typical spawn # is with them, @ what point should I siphon then into a non community tank/fry tank. Holy difference between mouth breeder fry size and egg layers! Thank-ya

Is this fish in breeding dress? If it is that colorful when not in breeding dress, I have a good chance of gettign them! She is about 3-4" in this pic and was close to laying. Here is one of my juvies @ 1.5-2" not in dress...Still nice and red, but they truly "GLOW" when they are ready to breed!

Agreed, but yet again I am no expert

Ok, so if a Flowerhorn is part red devil and a Parrot is also red devil..this is not such a far out cross is it? Have had these guys separated out from my smaller fish I just recently got and they were kicking the carp out of the severum/elongatus and dovii...looked in the tank and low and behold...eggs..everywhere, they are fanning them nice, and being very attentive, moved the 3 others out and now they all seem less stressed! Babies soon anyone?

I have a 4" Pseudotropheus elongatus "Mpanga" Female, at least thinking thats her that I got from here as a breeding pair and the boy died.. so she has held.... She is blue!

Just wondering, since I have no clue about salt, they would be the equivalent to snails in freshwater?, ok and not bad until they overpopulate your tank..they do look pretty, see I would have not known and left it.. adds color!

Ahh see I learn something new each time I log in! Thought he/she was cool looking
