Can an admin or someone explain why I can't upload or profile pics. It just says that the site cant handle the request.:wacko:

I was able to observe 2 of my favorite fish spawn the other day and decided to strip and tumble to see how things went. Well, things went less than well. The fish were a younger Labidochromis caeruleus Nkhata Bay ''White Lab" and a younger adult P. phenochilus Tanzania. I stripped 12 eggs...

Had a few fish tanks over the years. Successfully bred convicts for a few years. I sold my tanks and moved across the country to MD. Few years without a tank and I was dying to get a tank and start collecting rare colorful cichlids this time around. My son and daughter (twins)were born in 2012...

So I have a pair of festea. But I have only had on successful spawn. I removed half when they became free swimming the other half a week later and raised the fry with good success. My issue is since they have had 4 spawns all start well but end with nothing to show. It's like the eggs get to...

Okay, As many of you have noticed the last few days there were some issues with the forum Portal/Home page. I think we are just about back to normal. There may be a couple of new items along with this. You will notice before you get to the latest threads, there is now another box. This will...

I picked up an F1 Pundamilia pundamilia at the CCA May meeting last year and he's grown to become my favorite cichlid I'm keeping. Last November he and a few others came down with some internal parasites. I treated them in a QT tank for a couple of weeks. I haven't seen any symptoms of internal...

I keep getting an internal server error when I try and respond to pm's. ANy clue what that is about?

The half-life on these things is about a year. After that they're likely to fail at any time and because they're so cheaply constructed that they can't be repaired. What a load of BS. Have three that I bought new in the last two years that have all failed. Having the bulbs outlast the...

My 75 gallon tank simply will not hold. I have tried everything including travelling great distances to pick up used filters from Jon and Chris was kind enough to come to the apartment to take a look. The amoonia goes up to .50 to 1 inside 1 day and the water will not stay unclouded for more...

Anyone having issues accessing the site from Blackberry? I get on here a bunch from home and killing time randomly (meetings) from my Blackberry. Haven't been able to access the site for the last 4-5 days (I think). I get a popup that says: When I press the details button, this pops up: Also...

Sort of nervous after their effect on some of my first Apistos (terminal bloat).

My rams have been going crazy the last few weeks, covering flat rocks with eggs on at least four occasions. The problem is that I never see any wrigglers. I'll see one or both parents guarding the eggs for a few days and then one day the eggs are gone. On a couple of occasions the rams have...

I usually do 50% plus weekly water changes for my 90G african tank. Three weeks ago when I did a water change, my fish were gasping for air little bit but nothing serious. I found one dead tropheus next day. A week later, I did another water change and a few hours later everybody was gasping...

I have not had any disease problems for over 10 years so I'm not sure how to procede with this and will be out of town from Sunday -Friday, my wife will be careing for the fish. Can fish have ich and not have white spots? In my 65g show tanks and one of my 20g gallon fry tanks there seems to...

When I bought my 180G tank last year it came with a sump and the associated water pump. I did not set up the sump but I do use the water pump for water changes. I am not positive on the ID of the pump, but I think it is a Supreme Mag Drive 9.5 based on comparing it to pictures on line. Here's...

Anyone know what's going on with GWAPA? Cannot seem to get their website to display, and this has been going on for maybe 3 days or so now. -Rich

So for the last couple of meetings I have been trying to pick up some yellow labs to add color to my tanks. I do my usual routine of acclimating them to my tanks by leaving them in their bags in the tanks for a couple of hours so that they get used to the water temperature and then add them to...

I picked up a pair of these guys at the last auction, small, about 1.5", and compared to the rest of my tangs, they probably get 1 piece of food for every 10-15 that the rest of the herd do. I know they prefer live food but that really isn't practical for me. Are they notoriously finicky, slow...
