Could you give some information about your fish tanks?
I really like them.

Have these fish ever bred in captivity?

Thank you for the answers.
MatsP your maccus have ever bred in your tank?

Hello, in my tank I have a panaque maccus. I feed him tetra prima (pellets) , hikari algae wafers (tablets) and Sera wood tablets . I would like to feed him vegetable too, but he doesn't like it. Some days ago I placed into my tank a piece of cucumber and I am not sure if he ate anything. Yesterday ...

Really thank you for the answers MatsP.
What is the minimum aquarium that someone can use in order to breed a small panaque (such as panaque maccus ,panaque L'002 etc)?
Do you think that is better to have the catfish alone or with dithers?

If they were both males shouldn't they normally fight each other?
As my friend told me, the usually stay close and share the same hiding places in the tank.

Panaque l104 like blackwater conditions?

Here is a pic of my maccus...

Such a nice tank.
The pieces of wood are awesome!

What are these advantages?

Plecos of the genus Hypancistrus produce so much waste as the plecos of the genus panaque?

Ancistrus sp(l144)

Can I place this pl*co or my tank is small?

What do you think about this one?

Another factor that may make your Panaque more active is the temp. They should be kept at 26-29C. :D So I will increase the temperature of the water 1c I want to change the penguin tetra because they never swim as school... they swim alone...through the plants. I was thinking of 10-12 harlequins ...

Thnx very much for the answers
I will place the pieces of wood that I posted in my first post...
