Apistogramma feeding routines
Just got a pair of Apistogramma cacatuoides and wanna make sure I'm feeding them right. They're in a 20 gallon with sand substrate, some driftwood, and a few Java ferns. Been giving them flakes and frozen bloodworms twice a day. They seem to eat but not super excited. What's your routine?

I took another look, and I'm pretty sure it's a green severum. It's gonna get huge, like up to 12 inches long. Since my tank's only 30 gallons, I might upgrade to a 60-gallon once it reaches 7 or 8 inches - don't want it to get too cramped in there.

Re: is african cichlid shedding normal?
The fish look the same as when I brought them home from the store. Initially, one was a bit aggressive towards the other, but after finding their own little hiding spots, they seem to be coexisting just fine.

is african cichlid shedding normal?
Hi all, I just got two African Cichlids yesterday and I'm a bit concerned about something I noticed in the tank. The store tested the water and said it was fine for new fish, but I didn't get the exact parameters. The fish seem fine, eating and exploring normally. There's this white stuff in the ...
