Re: Can anyone identify this lake malawi cichlid?

If you google german red cichlid and browse through the images, you'll come across some that resemble the ones in question, though it's clear they're not purebred.

Re: Can anyone identify this lake malawi cichlid?

I came across this website, http/myemail.constantcontact.com/HUGE--and-the--H--is-silent-.html?soid=1104155438978&aid=iM7SKGuC0Vg, and the second fish looks a bit like the one they're calling a german red, seems a bit off to me though. Their top fins have that distinct line across the top, maybe it ...

Re: calming aquatic scenes

I'm curious, what's the specific Synodontis species in your tank, is it a Multipunctatus or an Ocellifer?

Re: calming aquatic scenes

Hey, what's the size of your tank and which synodontis species do you have in there. I'm really interested in learning more, I've got a 300 gallon tank coming soon and I'm trying to decide on some synodontis to stock it with.

Re: Change in mopani tree colour

I wouldn't link the mopani wood issue to your sick fish. I've got a substantial amount of mopani in my 180 gallon tank, about 30lbs, and it's been in there for 2 years. The only real downside I've noticed is the tannins still leaching out, which turns my water brown on a weekly basis.

Re: African fish breeding at the aquarium

They're probably some specific type of cichlid or something, but I'm not sure what the actual name is, Africans isn't really a fish name though, is it
