I have tried the razor blade with no luck,they just seem to end up looking like scrambled eggs.
I have one male to three females,I just wonder if i mighht need to find another male.

I have had my bronze corys spawn three times now and every time they are unfertalized.This last time they ate them all even though some were not bad ,why is this happening and what can I do aside from remove them.Thanks

Oh yeah is he ever,as with all my other syno he is a big eater abd being the biggest he is usually able to get the most.Thanks

I have this Synodontis that I had a picture up here.I was told it might be a ocellifer but I do not think so.Anyway this fish swam at the edge of the tank upside down.I have never seen this fish do this I have seen my multis do this but this fish is about 7-8 inches long.He seemes to be dead ...

Thanks I have a decorus but they are not similar in that the one I have up there is just spots and none of them are connected as in the decorus.I think it might be a hybrid.Sorry for the pic but it is the best one that I have and since he is so small right now it is hard to get him in range for ...

I got these at the store one was advertised as something angelicus the other as longenstrutas? I am pretty sure they are neither,and in fact the angelicus thing i thhink is just to get people interested enough to buy,I just thought that he was cool

I dont know they just seem to die I have tried three seperate times.I am thinking of giving it one more shot

Thats great thanks for me it is hard to believe that some say they are ugly,but I guess each to his/her own.so what cats do you have any pics?

Yes that is a multipunctatus and he has five friends to play with.I have to say that the Multipunctatus are in behaviour very cool,and they have lived also I have no success with Petricola.As for the chubby one he is really mild compared to the shouendenti who is just Pavaroti like he is just a ...

Thank you he is one of my favorite synodontis and he was my first one,I kinda thought that he was an ocellifer but had to check.Thanks again for the help

I guess the pic did not come through,here goes another try

I have to knnow if the fish attatched is an Katangae or an ocellifer

My multipunctattus were at it again torturing poor mr and mrs fueleborni in the act.I actually caught them on my video camera.That was very interesting but I also have two angelicus and they also were in the melee,is that more of a curiosity thing than anything else,I did not have the angelicus the ...

I just had my first multi babies and i wonder is it normal for them to do this with fuelleborni,the pet store was telling me that he thoought that it was only with haplochromis but I thoought this was not always the case.

Thanks for all that,I also have lots of rock work in the tank.I have no plants and some wood,but it is the rocks that they seem to like to hide in.I have made it a habit that where I go if it is clear water I try to get a decent rock,this is great for the kids to,as they seem to like getting ...

I got them at about the size of 20mm and they have grown to about 30mm in the span of six months or so.I have a 130 gallon tank with a variety of syno and cichlids.Given there size I wonder if it is a wise thing to do to put them in the tank,given also that these are the only ones that I have had ...

I just got some baby petricola from the lfs and for me they seemed a bit small to be selling,they have grown some but dont seem to grow that fast are they slow growers because they are a dwarf species or is this just these fish that I have.I have them in a 20 gallon tank with a couple of bristle ...

thanks to both of you I will keep an eye on this

I recently purchased my Shoutendi,if my spelling sucks please forgive me.What I have seem is interesting is the behaviour with my Shoutendi is the yo-yo loach.The loach will hug up to the syno and swim side by side with him and this is done for quite a period of time and seems to really agrivate the ...

he is in with several syno and seems to get along with all of them,the only addition is the Shoutendendi(hope I got that right)There are tons of rocks in the tank I have only seen one thing that sems to be aggressive toward him and that has been when the fueleborni went after him and that is it.I ...

The other day I noticed that my Angelicus was swimming with his head up to th top of the tank.This is not out of line I have seen him before doing this but it was the length of time he did it that got me,I then noticed the small patch of white on his side there are also spots of missing skin,or ...

thank you that is helpfull to know

I was just at the lfs and he has Greshoffi(in Canadianfunds)
19.99,is that a good price for them and are they a good fish to fit with other syno.Thanks for the input.

I have lost three multipunctus in the last few weeks,and the weird thing is that they appear to be in perfect health.They have no change in behaviour except that they seem to swim slower and one had a bit of a red spot on the area just before the tail fin.I am not sure what this all might be but it ...

well I am not to sure how many months they are but they are from one to one and a half inches long.I have been feeding them well but two things have come to mind and tose are they are in a small gow out tank(10 gallon)and there is no driftwood or whatever the tech name is.For example right now there ...

I have asked this before but having tried the zucchini and shrimp,yams and anything else I still seem to have small babies after a period of time that I think they should be bigger.I have several generations of these guys and every one seem to be sloww to grow.I am open to suggestions as to what to ...

I tried almost everything to cut those pots,I used my drill starting with small holes and progressing to bigger and I got two not bad ones.The frustration level though was well shall we say I banned my daughter from the shed when I cut them,so in an effort not to teach her the lingo of a sailor,I ...

well I used the dremel and I got a tile cutting bit,all was going the best i have seen so far until,the bit went flying off to some place.i had success and when i find it I will try soaking the pots and see if that might work I think that soaking and sawing as stated might be the only way but iwant ...

I was on aquabid,I always wonder the accuracy of some of these sites.I saw this ont that got me wondering,L236b platinum zebra pleco.So I consulted the the catalogue and to no supise for me it was not there,so does this fish exist and if so where can I get a pic.I found the L236 bit there was no ...

I am about to go out and get atile cutter for my dremel as I want to cut a opening at the bottom for my bristlenose.I will let you know how this works.
