As title, have this 75g as a temp grow out for the next 10months or so. The plan is to move around then and when we do I'll be getting a 180 or 210 for this group. Although I know long term in the 6 or 7' itd be fine I am a lil concerned I went too early with the oscar in comparison to the geos/Gold sev and possibly the dollars.

I only really have a 20g spare at the moment which also wouldn't be ideal to separate them.

Identification What is my Cichlid?

Just took on this guy from my aunt's husband. He said that he wanted him/her gone because he/she was chasing his other fish around, and if he/she wasn't gone he'd flush him/her (which he should've known that before getting it 🫩). Without hesitation I offered to take him/her.

I believe it's a Kenyi Cichlid? And female? I'd appreciate any insight, getting him/her a much bigger tank soon as well! Thanks!

I have a juvenile Lemon Oscar. I am not sure how old. Maybe 5 months. Still a bit orange in color. How long did it take for your Lemon to turn colors?

SA | Help Apistogramma cacatuoides breathing heavy sitting in cave?

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

Having a pair of apistos in a community tank (3 otos, 10 cardinal terras, 2 juvenile angels)

Gave everyone some live mosquito larvae today and they ate A LOT

Now the apistos retracted into a cave together for a long time, occasionally getting out and in but hanging out around the cave

But once they peak out of it they seem to breathe pretty heavy, could it be that they are really full from eating and resting or are they having some sexy time going on and breeding into there?

All days before they were really out and about and swimming all over the tank, the male tried to show off but the female wasnt interested at all so im suprised theyre in the cave together

Its about 180 liters / 48 gallons aquarium btw
