June 29, 2025: Freshwater Collecting Trip

If you haven't done so yet, please sign up if you plan to join us. Deadline to sign up is Wednesday, June 25, 2025.

It will be a great day of fun in the sun potentially seeing (and maybe collecting!) rainbow, fantail, and green side darters, rosyside and blacknose dace, and numerous shiners.

Please be sure to purchase your license before the collecting trip. You will need the Non-Tidal Freshwater license regardless if you plan to collect or take fish home.

How many Caudopunctatus?

Hi...
I'm starting up a 75 gallon Tanganyikan tank. I want representatives of most of the "peaceful" cichlids (julies, altos, etc.). I hear contradictory things about N. caudopunctatus. Specifically, the Imperial Tropicals website says "Due to the social nature of these fish, they are sold in groups of 3." Yet elsewhere I read that they can be aggressive toward conspecifics (if not mated), and that males are especially inclined to fight each other. I think a group of 3 of these fish would look great, but I don't know if that is a good idea. Any recommendations or pros/cons of getting 1, 2, or 3? Thanks!

Looking for Multies or Similis?

Does anyone have either Lamp multi or similis? I would love to get a small starter colony if you do.

J.
