You could just keep both tanks as species only tanks then the water parameters would be better for both the Frogs and the Bristlenose, a temperature of (25) is to cold for L134's in my opinion, I'm sure they would probably survive but I doubt they would be happy. If you did split the Bristlenose and ...

Hi mate I think you should put him in your 4ft tank just for the extra room if I had to choose one. I think my main concern would be keeping the bristlenose with either of these fish though as both require a more of a protein diet rather then a mainly vegetable diet required by the bristlenose also ...

I agree re the Eheim canisters filters there great, I have two 2217's on my 180 liter tank which have never let me down over the years, I have snapped a couple of the ceramic shafts but that was down to me being heavy handed when removing the impeller to clean it. I have often looked at the newer ...

Personally I think You need a bigger tank & to feed bigger amounts with regular water changes
I agree with Suckermouth keep him with the group.

I keep sturisoma_aff_festivum with mine, and have had countless spawns
With them in situ, and they don't mind it hot.

Once they start fitting into the Oscar's mouth, they are all considered meals. would Hypancistrus zebra or Hypancistrus debilittera or any carnivorous pleco eat small guppies and leave the adults alone ? Careful, some small Carnivorous Catfish are predatory,although not a pleco, I Know someone who ...

Try, (BD Trading, aquarium sand) it's quality, cheap and dose not alter PH, I wouldn't use anything else, don't think they have Black sand though.
It's available, Ebay, shops, everywhere.

Congratulations,mate how many fry, what are you feeding them

My female has just left the males cave again leaving eggs, the first spawn was on the 26/10/13 , with only three eggs found, this time I found 10 plus :d , has anyone else come across this, with bigger clutches second time round, I'm guessing this is normal, I'm surprised how quick after the first ...

Twelve years of waiting, I wouldn't risk disturbing them either lol.

Congratulations Barbie ! , is dad one of your original fish you had in 2002?

Mine all go crazy for de-shelled peas (not boiled) though, I don't see the point in boiling away all the goodness [-X I just put some into a cup leave them for an hour or so de-shell and then done, they don't go crazy for Blood worm/ Brine shrimp/ earthworm pellets etc like they do for peas, strange ...

Your right, I do overfeed at times, due to my work patten etc, all my Zebras are well feed , but not bloated, and they don't just get high protein foods, they get de-shelled peas etc, I would say they look healthy

Hi just thought I would share a pic of one of my two baby zebras out of the Cave, I first noticed him out and about on the 23/11/13, the found eggs on 26/10/13 this one doesn't Stay with dad in the cave anymore, he's happy on his pease of slate which is also home to a largish male, they seem to get ...

Some good advice there Hitch, re R/O I should have pointed out the reason I use R/O is that the tap water were I live
fluctuates quite a bit, so I use a mix of R/O & tap water to get the desired TDS so the fish receive a stable PH/hardness.

Hi fella Zebras are great, most people keep them in species only tanks as they don't compete for food well, there like wolfs, they live packs,they require good quality, you need high turn over and big filtration, and they like it hot and because of this you want air stones/ diffusers in situ because ...

[/attachment] image.jpg Just got back from work and found one of my baby zebras dead, when I looked at his belly he looks like he's chocked on a courgette seed ! I have a couple of Whiptails in the tank, hence a few seeds floating about, has any else come across this ? The other two are still in the ...

Cheers everyone I'm doing a water change tomorrow so I try and get some more pictures, they are all still in the cave, dad is a very protective father and won't let any of them venture out of the cave yet, they only have a tiny bit of egg sack remaining, so I think dad will let them out in the next ...

Ok, I should have said big to me, not in general, bar my Whiptails my biggest Cats are three and half.

Cheers mate, it's there first ever spawn, so next time there should be more, I heard that
That the first time the eggs are usually infertile anyway, so two's not bad.

Hi Martin

They get big, if only I had the room , what size are yours and what size tank you going to put them in, they look great !

I found two of my H zebra in one cave on the 24/10/13, on the 26th to female left the cave, I thought they were just having a practice run, after a couple of days I noticed that the male,which is the smallest in the group including the females, would not leave his cave nor let me see what was in the ...

After three days the female left the cave today leaving the male inside with no eggs to be seen, must have been a Pratice session .

Cheers TwoTankAmin

I did the water change and no problems, I did see the male pushing the female back into the
cave so there was a bit of movement but both still in the cave, so now it's just wait and see,
Cheers for the advice !
