The Cichlid Room Companion

Well in my setup I have a workbench with 4 tanks in it one being the 50g and the others are tens. Then my main rack is three tier with four 20l Nd a triplex with each being roughly 8g then a another rack with a 30g breeder and 20l. I'm just having a hard time deciding which to get since the drops to...

Guess to add to this I will be running 15 to 20 tanks the biggest being a 50g. With that said could I get away with a ap40?

Do you need to run a close loop system with these? Also are bleed valves a good idea?

Here's a picture of my orange chromides with their young. These guys were raised from fry in fw. Sorry for the cruddy quality will get more pictures soon off the fishroom.

Here's a few pictures from the 29g reef

Lol figured that as I wasn't planning on turning in both or any for that matter as I without them being a pure strain. I was just curious is all on how the rules were for it as for the breeding pair that happened on a fluke had a group that I was growing up of longfin albino and reg fin browns just ...

Well its been awhile, a long while since I've posted anything and a lot has changed. The number of tanks I currently have up has dropped for the time being at least until the extravaganza. Below is a list of the tanks up and I will try and get pictures and such and posted during this week. The 100g ...

Hey all been awhile since I was able to make a meeting but stuff is starting to calm down a little. In any case I had a question about BAP on bristlenose. I have a pair which consists of a longfin albino and a regular fin brown so when they spawn I get roughly 50/50 on longfin/normal and albino/regu...

Curious on where to get fake or real large pieceof driftwood. Looking for stumps like some use in central setups with the roots hanging down. Let me know if you guys know of a place.

Thanks,
Dave

Yup red head tapajos are also bi-parental with mouth brooding. Mine take turns or split the eggs between them.

Thanks Tim, going to try rearranging the rocks and see how that does. I did notice after I subdued the lighting, which I did a few weeks ago, was when the three larger ones color really popped.

Curious on what size these guys breed at and any tricks getting them to spawn? Have a grp of 12 three are at 3" and have amazing neon blue stripes and color the rest 2 1/2" with a few starting to show the blue coloring. I have numerous pieces of slate setup vertically with others rocks. Th...

No fee our anything needed. As long as you are paid up on membership dues you are sell set. Can look at one if the bulletins for the points the fussy are worth. If they're 20 or 25 point fish you dint have to bring six. Just mark pub the bag the nunnery if fish, your name, scientific name and common...

Welcome

I will have

Cynotilapia afra(Cobue)

and

Geophagus sp. "Tapajos Orange Head"

Indeed my favorite geo sp. Have a breeding pair got two batches atm the latest they gave ne 42 little ones

They're great fish. I have a breeding pair and fry/juvies i'm growing up

so got a bit of an issue, my J.Marleri spawned looks to be two different spawns however they Stu so in my display tank. So the babies are starting within the rockwork pile the parents claimed as home. So the question is there a size limit on how big or old fish can be to turn in for bap or any ideas...

I use prime on my displays and wesleys declor on the rest its like two drops per gallon.

Do they send the checks out like the oca ones? Also do they do cc?

Thanks,
Dave
