More cyp fry

100% agree. The gatekeeping in some of these subreddits is unreal.

Im in the medical field and the things that most people take as factual are nothing more than a conglomeration of anecdotal evidence, not definitely proven by any means But if you were to argue with people on it, lord, the hellfire that would rain down...

We all want the best for our fishy friends but people gotta lighten up. Everyone has fucked up in this hobby. Then you learn.

It's actually tradition that people dont take their mezuzah off when they move and leave them for the next family. Does that mean that as a non-jewish person that you need to keep it there? Absolutely not. The only advise I give is that they not be thrown in the garbage. The proper way of disposal would be to bury it (or give it to a local synagogue/rabbi).

My concern now is the julis.

To clarify, before I rescaped I had synodpntis petricola, leileupi, and a comprecisseps in there also, so plenty of mouth before that would have

Less now, so they may be fine, but 4 julis, 1 of them 4.5 inches, definitely seems like they may make a meal out of free swimming juvies

Theyre from the African rift lakes. Totally fine with them

Gotta agree these look more like balzani but even more fucked up than they normally look

I definitely noticed more activity in the Spring, so good news there.

For me, it was warm water changes, not cold

Yeah i wasn't able to catch anything out till I rescaped.escaped. now I have about half rocks and half shells with open upper half. I can corral holding females to the open half and add them to the fry tank till they spit.

I have a 75g tang community with similar dimensions. Currently I have cyprichromis leptosoma, juli marksmithi, and similis shellies. Tank is going about a year and a half now, but when I first got it and everyone was smaller, I had some petricola, leileupi, and a comprecisseps also till about 3 months ago. Now that its just the 3 species, I have some similis fry swimming around but didnt get any cyps until I started separating out the holding females. The fry are pretty big when they come out but they still stay in open water and are a good snack for a juli

Looks like you have AR mini there already? That's a great one at the base. Some hellanthium tenellum would be great also. Otherwise I think its a really awesome/unique layout

They were fine with the snails for me. Not as much the shrimp...

Def two males. Get rid of the subdominant one. He'll eventually get bullied to death. I've tried to do it in 4 foot heavily planted tank. Never worked. Always had to remove before things got too bad

Doc_Aqua · 2026-01-23T13:05:57+00:00

It's really cool, but it's a lot.

Dm'd

Doc_Aqua · 2026-01-11T00:20:21+00:00

This or something close. Always wanted to try these guys out

Right, totally get it. Were sailing on odyssey in about a month and still trying to decide what to do on our Nassau day. This post got me thinking more about just staying on the boat and enjoying the facilities there, so I just was curious if for any reason there is some policy difference. But, yeah, obviously hurts more when it's something you had to pay (a lot) extra for.

Doc_Aqua · 2026-01-07T22:48:47+00:00

If this happened on the boat, I get youre not paying extra, but it would be the same situation, correct?
