Some dam being the oprative words They are going to flood a area the size of England to make cheap power. I have been talking to a few people in the LFS Trade all have recived a letter or call regarding this "Ban" But the Xingu type fish are still being sold Mainly being brought out via Co...

I am pretty sure most fish listed as coming from Columbia are from Brazil. All I do know is they came in to the UK from an importer and were on the list as L066 which they are not, by any stretch of the imagination. The reason for requesting an ID is that the fry are now of a size that i can sell so...

The photo is the same as a fish I have seen sold as L129.

1st photos are the same as a fish I have seen sold as L173.

For what it is worth I place all caves at all angels to the power heads I use 2 x caves to fish so 5 fish = 10 caves. I cover the caves totally with slate, small stones and bogwood. A litter of leaf and plant matter across the floor of the tank. The fish find the cave they want and spawn. It has wor...

Hi
I agree not the best photos & I am no Pim or large naked cat Expert
A stab at ?
It has a ring of this fish about it.
Apart from the eys dont look right for a new world naked cat

I have never had these two fish in the same tank. I have however kept larger L Numbers with Megalechis thoracata ie Scobinancistrus aureatus . I totally agree about the feeding, May I suggest keeping Dianema urostriatum with L201 they are a far more dainty feeder and also do tend to be more mid wate...

Joe at rare aquatics has tubes abd some shrinp tubes are sold on E Bay https://www.rareaquatics.co.uk/shop/page/1?sessid=zLJjPPYsDsMvMODb8FvcHP7vLAzI235E3usAuDhK2JFrNw4PU2VIOrlS5VdarGgU http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ceramic-Multi-function-Aquarium-Shrimp-Breeding-cave-/250371173254?pt=UK_Pet_Supplies_Fish&a...

Ok let me explain about poo in my tanks. I have never vacuumed or removed Poo or any waste for that matter dead leaves, plant matter, old food, dead snails or any thing. I breed mainly Hypans and would not say I am a very experienced or successful breeder but I have a few Species/ variants / L Numbe...

I have never cleaned poo from my tanks I use natural setup as I was trying to explain
If you have a lot of poo why not look at your tanks loading. Or your feeding

I have just obtained two of these fish and on examining the mouth parts I have noticed a vast difference.
Any tip on care and breeding outside og the C A Log information would be helpful.

This question is best answered by the fish. Many fish have sound reasons why they would prefer one form of substrate over another. Some fish need to burry in a soft sand due to several reasons , some use this burrowing to await prey some to hide during daylight ,and some just find it easyer to feed ...

So a total mess as far as the L number? I think we should sit back and enjoy our fish Pleco22 I am amazed you can keep up with the situation it would totally destroy my sanity. My fish are exactly the same as AlGger,s fish even the fry are the same but they did not come from Germany. Thanks and Rega...

Hi :-H Lovely fish :-BD :-BD :-BD As I am sure you’re aware the L numbers that are assigned to the "Black & White" scribble plecos are always open to debate so I will not go down that road. I can only say they look like a group of fish I have, I brought them as L066, I have been told t...

Thanks I am trying to grab as many facts on the "whiptails" as I can. I have been spurred by the http://www.planetcatfish.com/loricaria_simillima.php spawning I have had. I have noticed that very little "labelling" apart from a brief name or sudo scientific name is found on the s...

Hi

Is any one aware of any differences between Hemiloricaria and Rineloricaria in care and diet?
Is it easy to spot differences with in the two genus’s?
Thanks and regards
Bob

I found mine enjoyed Prawn and Shrimp stuffed on a fork

I can't find it in the Cat-elog.
If it was easy to find, I wouldn't have posted it here.

Naturally people only post if they are unsure of the ID of a fish. I would hate to think people post just to confuse or to brag.

"If Bob (Macvsog), picks up this thread he can post all the details of the system he uses to successfully mix RO and HMA water for his Hypancistrus breeding. " I am more than happy to do this if it would be of use? If the mods are happy i will post it here tonight once i find the doc. Rega...

If you can suspend the decoration just over the water, with the opening of the cave pointing down, the fish will eventually come out - if you can't do that over the tank itself, try to arrange something over a bucket or some such. -- Mats This is the best way if any of the fish is "Hanging&quo...

Thanks mate i will ask and if not can you drop some over?

U have my adress?

one of the cable ones called extreem fishing or some thing like that
they were pulling RTC out of the water the size of a adult human

Thanks

I have some one feeding over the time I am away.
I am lucky the west of england has some of the most experianced breeder.

Thanks Jools
digest being the oprative word.
A Pun?
i am going away to SEA for 3 weeks in early march what do you think i should do ? I am guessing they will be able to be left in a tank and feed every few days?

Regards Bob

Jools Thanks I will track down some cherry Shrimps. I have a spray bar feeding the breeding trap I was thinking of diverting the flow when I feed so they get a chance to eat ? what do you think? I also am interested if the diet is more veg or meat based in the wild. How many times a day would you fe...
