wow that would be cool, I havent seen any fry, but I did notice her with that pattern again, and she is hiding a little more than usual. Thanks for the reply
I've had a pair of cacs for about 2 months now, and am fascinated with them. They have yet to succeffully breed, (I found eggs once but none hatched) and I cannot believe the color changes that happen with them. Today I slowly crept up to my tank, and my female was hiding in the back, and she...
Hello all,
Ok, my female has been continueing this pattern every day since the day of my first post. Tonight I saw something that I know has to be courting behavior. The female is "bumping and grinding" on the male, and keeps trying to lure him into her cave. (an overturned flowerpot with a...
Thanks for the info, so far I still have just the pair and they are doing fine. My tank is lightly planted so maybe I will pick up one more female and see how things go.
The same thing happened this morning. When I woke up, only her fins showed the slightest hint of yellow, then within a half hour she was completely grey again.
I got a pair of cacs about a month ago, and they are doing very well. Last night I noticed my female was turning yellow. I got excited and am hoping for them to breed, but today when I woke up, she was plain old grey again. she was like this for most of the day, until night, then she again...
I want to put add as many cacatuoides as possible, I just don't know how many that is. I think it would be neat to have a tank "full" of those beautiful fish.
How many dwarfs could I fit in a 29 gallon tank? I already have a pair of cacatioudes, and I want to get more, but I don't know how many more I can keep? I also have an empty ten gallon I could use for raising fry. Any thoughts would help.
Thanks
As temporary caves, I tossed in a few peices of white PVC pipe (eyesore) They are an inch in diameter, and about 6 inches long. I proped one up on a peice of driftwood I have in my tank. I think if I painted the "caves" so they looked like driftwood I could construct somthing that resembled a...
I'm a newbie when it comes to dwarf cichlids and I want to check out some books about them. I just got a pair of A. cacatuiodes and since we are on the topic of books, I was hopeing someone could recommend any books that I should pick up!
I'm having the same problem. I just got a pair of cacatouides two days ago I haven't seen them eat yet. I put them in a 29g that already had Tiger Barbs in it. Every time I feed them the barbs go nuts and eat everything I put in the tank, I've tried flake food, cichlid pellets, shrinp...
