Have to agree with Azurekoi here.... I also owned one years back, and it started giving me trouble shortly after reacjhing around 6-7cm. I would...
There is only the Crossocheilus Siamensis and Oblongus that will eat BBA. The others will not touch it, so by that statement alone, I would say...
I just recently bought two 'Siamese Flying Fox's' which turned out to be Garra Cambodgiensis. TRUE Siamese algae eaters are Crossocheilus...
I think the best algae eaters are a combination of Otocinclus (a decent shoal of 6+), an SAE or two and a Farlowella or Sturisoma Catfish IMO....
Correct Zoom, but then there is also on top of that list the False Siamese Algae Eater and False Flying Fox. Then you also get the Siamese Flying...
Yes Zoom, They are... As I have stated above. There are 4 or 5 fish which all look similar, and are often confused as the same fish. Two are Garra...
Ah ok, I remember that thread now. CAE tend to be great at clearing algae when they are small, but then once they get big they become useless and...
Hehe! It all becomes confusing with these trade names again! Epalzeorhynchos Kalopterus is the 'true' flying fox. This has Red in its fins. Then...
Oh Ryan... I found out.... Its not a flying Fox, Its Gara Combogulensis (or something like that). I'll try and get you the ACTUAL scientific name...
Do you know what species of Algae eater you have? Post some pics if you don't and we ma be able to tell you why they are useless? Regards G!
The Rams are fine to go with the Discus, as they prefer the higher temps, but the Cacatuoides and Macmasteri are not a particularly good match,...
I speak to Tyrone fairly often, and can find out what he has available, but I know he is packing down now since he's finished the research he was...
Ok, its often sold as 'Asian Sun Catfish', but its scientific name is Horabagrus brachysoma. Google should be able to fill you in with the info...
Ah yes, I remeber.... The suspected Borelli! Its actually Nanacara. Hehe. I was slightly confused, with the 'Nannagram', and thought that some...
So, what species is 'Nannogramma' again? Hehe! Are they those 'breasted' Apistogramma? G!
2nds one defo a male.... First one also looks male to me? Can you see any black on the first ones pelvic fins? Thats the easiest way to tell....
I think in order to give ideas of what fish to put in there, we need to know what height and width the tank is? Is it taller rather than wider? If...
Even if this fish is carrying eggs, which as stated above is doubtful, there is a high probability that in acclimatising, the fish will be induced...
What other fish do you have in there? I am inclined to agree that it is most likely Neon Tetra disease after re-reading this... As far as I am...
Whats your Temp? the growth on the side looks to me like a fungal growth, and could have been down to an injury it may have picked up, but its...
