Re: Temporary rehousing of a gibbiceps

personally i say a gibbcep with another gibbicep in a 122 litre tank, is like putting 2 fierce boxers to fight in a small cube!!

i say 119 litre tank with the pim.
after all, like others say the pim should be fine. because its only 1 week after all

just be careful on water quality

Re: Mikrogeophagus Ramirezi and plecos ?

I would agree with Dutchfry
I kept 6 cory's in a tank with a pair of blue rams-5 cory's died in a few days

most cory's dont get the idea that blue rams dont want to be disturbed


and i have a feeling at night the plecos might munch on the ram feggs if your not carful

Re: Brazil Suspends Belo Monte Dam!

I think the lower court was for the state while the higher court was for the country (ie. in the capital of Brazil, Brasilia). Thus I assume Brazil has a court in each state at least. Doesn't that mean there isn't a court higher than the one in Brasilia? And I would guess the only higher court woul...
