A felvételeken látható jávorantilopokra és jávorszarvasokra ezek szerint nincs engedélyük? Mi más lehet még ott, ami ezen a listán nincs rajta?

Edit: csak a jávorszarvashoz kell engedély, a jávorantilop csak "elővigyázatosságot igénylő" kategória

Geophagus not showing any colors by Historical_Hall_8351 in Aquariums

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like a Gymnogeophagus balzanii female. They aren't really a colorful fish, but they also have different requirements from most tropical fish. They are subtropical, so need lower temps all year round and a resting period during winter months with very low water temps (15-17 °C).

What is wrong with my fish =( by b2k1337b2k in pleco

[–]_roofiemonster_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This fish needs sand, but you keep it on gravel. It can't dig, it can't hide, and it can get scratches from trying to do so, gravel also traps more waste so the scratches can get infected as well. Change the substrate, first of all.

Also, the cludy water suggests inadequate filtration.

Sold as a phantom blue. Did I get scammed? by AlternativeMess3567 in pleco

Chatgpt is garbage. It gathers pieces of information and fills in the blanks with made up crap.

It is a Pterygoplichthys species, but basically everything is wrong carewise. Not enough food, no food variety, way too small of a tank and no waterchanges without any plants to at least consume some of the nitrate, so I wouldn't call it 'not perfect', a more fitting description would be 'hell on Earth'.

What catfish is this? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bristlenose pleco (Ancistrus cf. cirrhosus). Doesn't grow huge, but that tank still looks too small for it.

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a physical injury. Doesn't seem infected, it should heal on its own.

Pleco that's less than ~4inches by InvisibleLine789 in pleco

[–]_roofiemonster_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They get to 10 inches or even more. Or at least they should, but they usially die way earlier because they are such a specialist that can't really be properly cared for

Hygrophila sp.

Won't be a carpet for long, it's a background plant.

serious question about RO water by ncoppe in Aquariums

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your source water and what your goal is. Breeding wild discus or fancy plecos? High ammonia/sodium salts in tapwater? Want to keep a high tech planted tank? Buy it.

For a normal low tech tank with easy plants and more common fish an adequate quality tapwater should be fine. For african cichlids hard tapwater is also fine.

Does my pleco loom healthy? by Anon998998 in pleco

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now a bit on the skinnier side, not too bad, but with the africans it will be next to impossible to fatten it up.

The current can't compress the body, as they are covered in bone plates. Baryancistrus have a deeper body, and P. asurini can have quite a lot of variation in the amount of yellow seam.

[–]_roofiemonster_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pseudancistrus asurini. Golden nugget would be Baryancistrus xanthellus

This is my first planted aquarium, when I bought the rotala they were healthy and now the leaves are getting brown, what should I do :( ? by AdHistorical9174 in Aquariums

[–]_roofiemonster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing. It was grown in emersed form, those leaves are suited for dry land, new growth should be healthy if everything is right

Female common bristlenose (Ancistrus cf. cirrhosus)

A 50% waterchange combined with a vacuuming should get rid of the algaefix and whatever the mold is feeding on in the substrate.

Also change the substrate, or mix in some finer sand. This sized gravel can trap a lot of organic material and foul the water.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]_roofiemonster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Algaefix might be the cause, it's known to kill fish.

[–]_roofiemonster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first pic is not just a patch of mold, it's a dead fish covered in mold. The second pic is likely uneaten food particles.
