1.What are the sympthoms of it? Pain! 2.How can it be transmitted? Glands on the pectoral spines. The fish may try and stab you be very careful when reaching into the tank, and do not handle this fish. 3.Is it deadly? Yes. If stung immerse wound in hot water, this is the accepted antidote(as hot as...

That's it for stocking...now any recommendations on filters? as you know when your fish are full size the tank will be overstocked. so to take that into account i suggest you put a lot of filtration on your tank. Common way: 2X Large bucket eheim filters. 2x Internals for water movement and water c...

Or is it Pangasius hypophthalmus ?

(meaning its "only" a red bruno and not L137) Don't they both share the same L-number at the moment? I think the difference should be explained in the cat-elog. To add to the question these fish produce huge amounts of waste and can consume more food than liposarcus pardalis (common plecs...

For a health issue like this we need a lot more information. For example good water quality does not tell me what your pH, ammonia and nitrite readings are. Information like: Pleco species effected? other species in the tank? tank temperature? nitrate, KH,GH? how long have you owned the pleco? and a...

S greshoffi are very peaceful in synodontis terms as long as they have a hiding place they are fine. I have housed a group of four together in the past.

RTB might be a problem when large as aggression comes with age and size in this species. But more likely that the paradise fish won't like the endlers, and they will be the major problem.

stocking levels seem to be the issue of the times for some reason or another. As in your case there are no large species the easy way to tell if you tank is over stocked it to use your water test kits. Ammonia and nitrite should always be zero. And the nitrate level you should be able to keep below ...

1 Chaetostoma (Bulldog or rubbernose pleco) would also work. but if you want a pleco to eat algae as well then try and get some bristlenose.

do you know how they were introduced?

Have you been feeding live foods?

google led me to this:

All follow this link it's a very cool tank, going to waste on cichlids though

If you need any more instructions post specific sizes of what you are trying to build.

With very good filtration and lots of places to hide, it could accomadate all except the common pleco.

Welcome to planet catfish.

From L-Welse.com

L 368 Scobinancistrus sp. Rio Tapajós.

Extensive i know, but can you post a few pictures for confirmation and possibly the cat-elog as this species is not listed so far.

1. What should I feed this little guy? Fish? Shrimps? Sinking pellets? Live fish? add to the list muscles, cockles, prawns and krill i think you get the idea. also personally i am against live feeder fish as the practice is unnecessary. 2. How often should I feed it? I've red that big ones should o...

You see them a lot in britain i believe because BAS in bolton supplies them to other shops. I have not seen this species sold from any other distributer. And they are not even labeled as hybrid catfish. Last time I think the name was "yellow tail catfish" or something like that :twisted: T...

Then i believe you want Parazin P rather than sterazin. as this disease is considered a pond disease then it's a pond disease medication you will most likely need to use. http://www.waterlife.co.uk/ If you can post a picture of the problem, as ancor worm are very easy to spot. However if sterazin do...

L46 at the moment the price is up and down here anything from £50-£90 for the same size 2.5" fish.

The ideal set-up IMO would include 2x bubble sponge filters and when you want to initiate breeding add an extra power filter. Pick your power head on litres per hour not tank filtering volum, 400-600lph would be what i would recommend. After you notice the male guarding the eggs or young remove the ...

(higher temp = higher metabolism, right ?) Not sure about other breeder experience with increasing growth rates however my experience does not lead me to believe that higher temperatures will make any increase in speed of growth. My reasoning for this is that young bristlenose have an extreemly hig...

If for instance you have been overfeeding and not cleaning the bottom of the tank often enough, then there could be a build up of bacteria within the gravel irratating your bristlenose.

How often do you gravel clean the tank?
Try a few 30% changes over the next week and see if it's less agitated.

Yes sterazin can be used with catfish species. However what exactly are you treating for?

Have you tested the water?
What were the results?

If not and you haven't got a test kit, first thing i would do is a few 30-40% water changes.

The question makes no sense. the title asks about wood eating species. But the question asks about Limnivore species.

panaque maccus are omnivores

play safe just leave them plain white.

Lose the one angel fish, when young they like the security of a school and adults are best paired.

This would depend on what species of fish you are aiming to keep. Certain catfish have been known to scratch acrylic tanks.

Having said that they are alot easier to move around than glass and 17 times stronger...ect..ect. so i would deffinitly recommend it over glass.

A freshwater shrimp is about the most you can accommodate in 2 gallons.

Cant answer about time frame but the only problem i have with bamboo is that sometimes it comes with a very explosive fungus attached that just will not quit.
If you are not experiencing any fungus, you do not have much to worry about.

I would say a good example of Heteranthera zosteraefolia when its given the right conditions.
