Re: Friendship over?

They don't tend to "fall out". More likley they've gotten bigger or the clown pleco has had a say in where it wants to be. By the way, we were all new to this at one point. That was a long time ago for me, but I am still learning all the time.

Re: How should I treat this issue? - L333 Tiger King Pleco

Now it looks like an infection. I think I can see swelling in the caudal peduncle. Kanaplex is not a bad shout if you think it's fin rot. I can't see the tell tale red signs of a bacterial infection. You don't want it to be active, you want it to be breathing slowy and hiding. Active during the day ...

It does look like an injury as opposed to an infection. What other fish are in the tank?

No worries, quite pleased to say I've got this fully up and running now. In addition to the add/amend/delete functiuonality, it now also suggests new synonyms where they exist on other datasets.

Re: Callichthys callichthys?

I do see the difference. However, males will develop heavier heads when maturing. My best guess would be this is what is happening here.

If not, then perhaps a n. sp. in the Rio Nanay but this seems unlikely.

Re: Fish Room Build

I'd go in priority of power,water and heat. Then think about tank layout, plumbing and filters. I would focus on how you are going to get water in and out and also the temperature of the room. Are you going to heat every tank, or heat the room? In terms of water in and out, I am guessing you could ...

Re: Shrimp safe w/Raphael's

The smaller doradids eat snails, small shellfish and insect larvae in nature. I'd question their ability to catch cherry shrimp and indeed their motive if well fed. The pictures paint that picture very well.

Re: Compatibility

If there's no salt, and it's just hard water then any of the Lake Synos would work. I'd avoid smaller jungle or river synos becuase of the hard water, but several hardy larger species would also work.

Re: Compatibility

In addition, rare eel-tail, banjo and woodcats live in brackish water, but are all near impossible to find. All but the banjos would eat molly fry. If you lose the salinty, but keep the water hardness there are more options. I've seen common plecos kept in low salinity water, but I can't think they ...

Re: What do I need tankwise to grow fry?

You need lots of tanks if you want to do efficiently. Or just get a large vat of some sort (is that an IBC tote?) but if you use that method, one mistake, or disease and you lose a lot of fish. I'd raise them to 1cm and then move each brood to its own grow out tank until you run out of grow out ...

Yes, I took out the code to hide "all zero" entries as none should exist "feature" when I was upgrading the maps. A bit hardcore, but it does mean they stick out! Will have a look at the "Duc My" issue...

The whole caudal fin is spotted in S. moijiri and sporadically spotted in S. acsi plus the latter is a bit more brown / generally lower contrasting "colours".
