I noticed a couple of the fry are very pale and white! Did they pull through for you?? I remember having one that looked like that and it died shortly after. Yeah, All those pics are from when I first got the fish. Ive had the fry for about a year. I lost a few about 5 months ago due to neglect ...

I will be housing 20 Zebra plecos in here. Its a 45gal. I plan on adding more caves but that is about it ...

My new Zebra set up (please critique)

Ok, Im giving this another try. Hopefully I can get some breeding going on in here. I read another post about a slate bottom so I figured I would try it. I used un-guaged 1ft tile squares that fit perfect. I just wasnt willing to go bare bottom and was hesitant of sand. The bubble wand in the back I ...

They were all in one big bag together. They spent a good 5 hours in there and were handled by alot of people. They were auctioned off at the Honolulu Aquarium Society meeting. I was crushed when they died. I was looking foward to experimenting with breeding these guys.

Why Did They Die???

I purchased a breeding colony of nine corys from a guy this weekend. By the time I got them home one was on its side and within an hour all the rest but two were dead. I put them in a tank with multiple fish that have no problems at all. When I woke up this morning the other two were also dead. Any ...

Thanks Whitepine for the idea

I kinda copied Whitepine on his river tank because I liked it so much and here are some pics of it. I couldnt be happier with the way it turned out. I cant imagine his current level in his tank though. I have a 45 gallon with a Fluval 404, and a 802 powerhead. The current is very strong and he has 3 ...

Common plecos are legal. They have two fresh water lakes here on Oahu and they are full of schools of Pleco. So much so they jam up fish finders. Ive never actually caught them to I.D. the species but they look common and average of 1' plus. Hawaii has some really crazy laws when it comes to ...

They charge $79.99 per gold nugget here in Hawaii at the LFS since they are illegal to import. I dont know how they get them in, but they sell quick at that price. I really want some but im not about to pay Zebra pleco prices for them. So (Hint) if anyone was to accidentally shipped me a package of ...

The 2nd looks like a female to me, but I am not certain. I have had a bunch of different answers on this. I was told by the guy that sold them they were both females, two people said male and female and one male and male. Im really confused now. I do appreciate the responses though. Hopefully I can ...
