    Name change?

    I've recently returned to apistogramma.com after not using it for some time. In that time I've started to use my real name on other forums as I am involved in two cichlid clubs and I find it is now pointless and a hindrance to have an anonymous username due to the advent of Facebook. Can I...

    Chromidotilapia guntheri spawning

    I always assumed that my Chromidotilapia guntheri would spawn on a rock and the male would pick up the eggs, but in mu video it looks like they are spawning like mbuna, except the male is taking in the eggs. Has anyone observed this before? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iyv3yMYNZ5g

    Heaven for Westie fans (UK)

    I went for a trawl around the shops today (pun intended :roll: ) I popped into Mr Fish in Bedford and he had N. tranvestitus, P. roloffi, P. humilis, P. subocellatus "Matadi" and P. taeniatus. He also had some nice thomasi and a Lake Bermin species, T. gutterosa. Mr Fish himself is a Westie...

    Biotope set-ups

    Having seen Willem Heijns talk on his Biotope tanks at the recent EACG meeting I was inspired to attempt something similar of my own and following a bit of buying and selling at a couple of auctions and a big change around in my tanks I now have four vaguely themed tanks based on a specific...

    Pelmatochromis nigrofasciatus

    Hi All, Earlier this year, a fish-buddy of mine Rick rescued an unidentified West African cichlid from a batch of Jewels. She was a bit ropey due to the attentions of the Jewels. He offered her to me as I like the weird ones especially West Africans. She turned out to be Pelmatochromis...

    Steatocranus irvinei

    I managed to get a half decent shot of one of my irvinei. I'm still learning about this species, I don't know whether this one is a male or a female. I guess I'll find out eventually! I really like the orange on the pectoral, the blue on the lip (not easy to see from this angle) and the...

    Nanochromis nudiceps

    I saw some lovely Nanochromis nudiceps today, I managed to leave the shop with out buying them. Please give me some advice before I go back! They were quite easy to sex so I'm not sure if I should go for a pair or a group, help!

    S. Casuarius and S. tinanti

    My African Blockhead Cichlids (Steatocranus casuarius) and Slender Lionhead Cichlids (Steatocranus tinanti) both spawned on the same day! (Saturday 1st December). How random, must be something in the water Fingers crossed I can get some fry, they are great little fishes. Not a bad result...

    Laetacara fulvipinnis

    I have a trio of Laetacara fulvipinnis aka"orangeflossen" , I've had them for about 18 months. Recently the female (I think) is being a bit hard on the other two (Both males). I was hoping by now that a pair would form and I could remove the spare male. Any advice on how I can encourage a...

    Laetacara "Orangeflossen"

    I got this guy at the British Cichlid Association Auction back in October, got five altogether, from Peter Lovett. This one seems to have paired off, so I've given the pair their own space, fingers crossed!!

    Nannacara

    I bought a pair of Nannacara anomala, but I'm not sure if they are anomala or might even be aureocephalus - is there an easy way to tell them apart?

    Apistogramma "Red point"

    I recently acquired a wild-caught group of these fish. They seem quite happy at the moment and I think I have one male and three females, too early to tell but great if that works out!! By the way, I got all four at the BCA auction for just £3! I was just wondering if anyone has had any...

    Lamprologus moquardi

    (Copied from another forum) I'd be interested in hearing about anyone's experience with these fish as I have a breeding pair and I'm not really familiar with their behaviour. I assumed they would form a strong bonded pair, like Neolamprologus or Steatocranus (as they come from the same...

    Orthochromis machadoi

    There was an article in PFK (UK) this month about these fish and I would really love to try and get hold of some. Does anyone know of a source in the UK or at least in Western Europe? Thanks Simon
