Loaches Online Forum

The loaches are ok now. Almost back to 100% with normal colours at affected areas. It only took some vitamins, glad I take mine every morning.

Now they have really settled in, there was alot of hiding and shy behavior if someone came closer. Here are some pics: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y129/janma666/sews.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y129/janma666/IMGP3180-1.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y129/janma666/IMGP3146.jpg -Ja...

Since there are no predators in the tank there is a slight change that some could survive. What I´d do with them, dunno. Maybe sell them and get filthy rich and rule the world, but thats a big maybe.

Ok. It´s pitbul eggs, I think. Thanks shari.

Do Sewellia/Gastromyzon just scatter the eggs or do they stick them to a surface? Reason I´m asking is this...

These are mystery eggs.

Could be the pitbull plecos too but they should show some interest to them but theres no arround.

When a female sewellia is carrying eggs is it possible to see them when it hangs on the glass? One of my big females has yellow/orange colouring beneath the skin where i would think the eggs are.

I was thinking about the smallest one, still 1500L/h. And yes I would have to figure out how to cover it somehow, maybe not for loaches but the shrimps would be made into food. This hobby is nice because there is a constant "what if" going on

Has anyone got any experience with this circulation pump?

A very nice tank, harmonic.

The thing is that you just can walk into a shop and buy antibiotics. You need a medical prescription for that. So only thing I bought today was vitamins so we shall see.

The loaches are looking better, tough I didnt give them any medication. I´ll see tomorrow if I need to get some, dont know what to buy. There are maybe 3 types of medicin to get here: against Parasites, Fungus or Bacterial. Wich is the one to go with, allready have the one against parasites. Also th...

No access to antibiotics, will have to wait until monday to get correct mediacation.

Costapur is medication against parasites and contains: malachite green oxalate, formaldehyde solution, aqua purificata. Both tanks have "lips" so shouldnt be able to climb over.

Need I worry more? Since I put them in the new tank they swim around close to the surface and sometimes hoist themselves up from the water almost 100%. Only the tail is beneath the surface. Dont think its for air since I´ve got an aquaball with diffusor there. Hopefully they are only scouting out th...

Ok, after an operation that really wasnt that hard I caught the two. I was supposed to get them to the store to show so I can get the correct medication, but it was closed. Then I noticed that when in transpot bag the colours dissapear and you hardly notice the patches so I think they had it at arri...
