Hemichromis bimaculatus Jewel Cichlid- i have like 4000 of these now.................. Archocentrus nigrofasciatus- convict cichlid i have one pair and 10 fry, their first batch!! Jack Dempsey - Rocio octofasciata i have 6 of these trying to find proper pairs and ratios.

i bought only a few guppies they had from previous orders, they were ok till the frogs ate em, but they are very helpful in illness questions and my frog question as well as a picture sent and name of cichlid and why the others did what they did to them

these guys are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the female is carrying fry in her mouth for sure. these guys could be ob peacocks or giraffe haps, i will check out bloat in google, they are not skinny, they are not sick so far, the tank is finished cycling and water is ok. id love someone to come by for coffee and have a peek if anyone is in edmonton and could help me out? i am going to take a picture and post these guys.

rd, threy are male is 3 or 4 inches and the female is 2 or 2.5, they are the only 2 in the tank, someone also said they are ob peacocks, im confused, any of you in edmonton that wouldnt mind having a look at them? i clicked your link above and looks similar to the oicture but look more like ob peacocks. they are both in the 33, believe it or not it might be bigger than that. the guy at aqua giant didnt say nothing about these guys, hes susally good when there is special things that needs to be done, he tells. i know not much about cichlids, my hubby does tho, but ev1 is confusing him lol

their poop is normal for a fish, the female is definately prego, looks like a pelican, holding? does that mean hes waiting for her to spit out the babies? or? that word ive never heard used, to me holding means in a tank for illness. seperately. they do attempt but spit it out, the male does anyways!

what on god's green earth do they like to eat? ive tried like 4 different foods including sinking cichlid pellets! flakes, tropical flakes, floating pellets, like whats up with these guys? they are one breeding pair. help!! the guy at the fish shop here says they eat pellets, we have the same pellets. sheesh. i know they dont eat when they are spawning, but she has babies in her mouth.......................... i freakin out!

he is still being active very much, but there is some white slime like on his fins, none on the scales, just tail fins etc. its not ich, i knw that much. anyone got any ideas?

i am just getting back into it from 4 horrible years i have had. my common interests are guppies and betas. sp pretty. ill have some next week.

i think more space no fighting.

i have always used ich treatment from the pet store. just the treatment, certain amounts per galon.

howdy ev1. i am from edmonton, alberta, nw edmonton area. i have 2 hobbies fish and beads. i even make kool fish beads for jewellery charms etc.
