Just a single scale? There's a good chance that he might have dislodged it some other way - such as getting a fright and hitting the glass/tank...
Agreed. It's nice to see Parachromis at that size and in such good condition.
Oh, those are positively lovely. I hope this inspires more hillstream loachers in the future.
You already know I'm following this, just waiting on the pictures :thumbup:
Nice find! I'm sorry I didn't see this thread earlier, since I have a friend who breeds a few species who could have helped you out. Looking...
Now this I'm jealous of - it's a good use of space! Any ideas for new upcoming projects, or is it an expansion of your current breeding program?
Is there nothing else in the filter at all? No sponge, or plastic balls, or ceramic rings? What I listed above make up the "biological filter",...

Sorry to hear about your loss, sometimes they do get a little over eager and these things happen. The good news is that most kribs will happily...
I'm very much an advocate of not medicating unless a diagnosis has been made. This can be difficult to do (accurately) in aquarium fishes, but I'd...
@Lowflyer7 take a look at the millipedes from the family Polydesmidae. Not like your common shongololos, and some species look quite like your...
Squinting at the photo long enough, it looks like a type of millipede. It's not an insect as it has far too many legs, and although there are a...
I upload my photos to Flickr and share the files from there.
Thanks very much! These guys have been for sale a few times before, but often get overlooked because they look like a muddier, less colourful...
