Re: Synodontis granulosus: tank information

Ok. So in view of the opinions it is better that I go on several tanks with one individual per tank outside the spawning period (in anticipation, I would of course test cohabitation and separate the individuals at the first sign of aggression). From what size are they sexable? If I have the means to...

Re: Synodontis granulosus: tank information

Thanks for these informations. So if I take 8, it is better that I wait to be able to distinguish male and female (unless the difference is visible before? ) and keep only one couple (or even two) which will potentially be separated in case of problem. You say that only the reproduction by hormone w...

Re: Synodontis granulosus: tank information

Hello and thank you. I would like to go with a group of 8 but my main question is: can they tolerate several if the number of hiding places and the food is sufficient? Is an 800l tank sufficient for 8 synodontis (tank specific to this species)? I currently maintain 7 Synodontis nigriventris and they...

Re: Synodontis granulosus: tank information

Thank you for your answer. I was thinking of leaving on an 800l (211 gallons) with a maximum of hiding places. The problem with aggressive behaviors is that they depend on many things. I especially had behaviors of the kind with Ameiurus melas of which an individual to kill 3 of these congeners befo...

Hello, as I am setting up my fishroom, I start looking for information on a very particular fish: Synodontis granulosus. This is a species that I want to successfully reproduce in the aquarium. I would therefore have a few questions for those who have maintained some and who still maintain some. On ...

Re: ancistrus fry predator

The fry measure 0.5cm (and still have their yolk sac). I gave them and the synodontis were crazy. They pounced on it. They are 10 years old and measure about 10cm. Even penguin tetras and corydoras have eaten it.

If I go on a rack of 12 tanks of 100l / 20g (4 per floor), what would be the ideal flow rate?
Suddenly, the circulation of water would be in cascade or it is possible to make a pipe which can insulate a tank?
