Re: Newbie Update

I bought a nice piece of driftwood, which I'm now soaking. So in a few days I'll take out the THR and put in the wood.

  • I'm still undecided on adding gravel. Any thoughts?
    Should I add a small filter to move the water a little?
    How many Ls can the tank support?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Newbie

@RichardB: Thanks but as you can see by my signature, I already have 4 Ls in the tank - all S.American. The L333 was purchased almost 3 weeks ago because I think it's fairly rare where I live and an lfs had 2 for sale (approx 4 cm). It's so small that I've only seen it 3 times since I got it. Should ...

Re: Newbie

A couple more questions:
  • Can I add any more fish?
    Do I need anything to move water around? (I'm not a big believer in airstones.)

Newbie

I'm new to L numbers although I've had cichlids for around 10 years. I had to buy a 70cm (70 liter) tank for a cichlid that I thought was holding. When it turned out to be a false alarm, I decided to try a few Ls. As I'm new to the species, I'd like opinions on the tank. In both tanks, I do a 20-30 ...

Re: ID Help Please

Thanks.

For some reason, looking at all the pictures for both, I tend to think a young Baryancistrus LDA.33 (L142) seems more likely.

L190 Problem with Tail

The lfs had this as an L190. But I'm wondering about the lack of pigmentation on the tail. Is this normal?

ID Help Please

Can someone please tell me what this is? The guy at the lfs said it was an L239 but he is obviously wrong. Thanks in advance.

Newbie Question

I have a Juwel Rekord 70 that I bought to grow out a few cichlids that never arrived.

I was wondering if I could put a few Ls in there. If so, any recommendations as to species and numbers? I realize that it's a fairly small tank, but I don't have any other ideas at the moment.
