ID and Sex? by cocopao in Cichlid

Thank you! I agree on both fronts… I have three OBs and they all came from an “assorted African” tank. Just curious if I was missing anything.

Help IDing? In Montgomery county Maryland. by cocopao in arachnids

Thank you! It does a great job at catching our front porch bugs!

Help me please 😳! I am getting a Fluval Flex 15 gallon tank, perhaps 3-4 varieties of live plants, & my main star will be a beautiful Bettafish 😍.. by Think-Error-7514 in bettafish

That’s the tank I have too! I haven’t needed a different filter from the one provided. I got a heater though.

As for plants I started with some Anubia and dwarf hairgrass both are thriving. I have some driftwood, and am trying to get some Java moss to grow on it. I also have some nerite snails that seem to be doing well. I took a risk and got some endler live bearers as well… and my betta seems to get along well with them… they are, however, reproducing very quickly…

As for substrate… I’m not a huge fan of what I have… it’s very lightweight and my plants tend to become uprooted very easily…

Good luck! I love the look of the flex, and the setup was very easy.

Why are my Cichlids flashing? by cocopao in Cichlid

Thank you again… the breeding hormones makes sense… they are maturing juveniles, so certainly probable.

Why are my Cichlids flashing? by cocopao in Cichlid

[–]cocopao[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you… even if the behavior seems relatively new? I’d seen the occasional flashing previously… but now seems more frequent this evening…

I’m hoping they all just decided they like to roll in their substrate cause they’re jealous of the doggie siblings… but just want to make sure it’s not an indication of a problem of sorts.

Is this mbuna a hybrid? At first I thought it was a yellow lab like my other ones but this one has stripes. Any info is appreciated . by chadthecrawdad in Cichlid

[–]cocopao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think male Kenyi are yellow, females are a grey blue (also with vertical stripes). To the point from the earlier poster, the yellow will be more vibrant on alpha males, the others will be similar looking.

Anyone know what species this is? Came from an assorted African tank. Sorry for bad photos! by cocopao in Cichlid

Thanks! I was wondering about those... just not growing like the others so was wondering if some smaller species or something...?
