Hi Guys, I am looking to sell my fish soon as i am heading overseas but i have no idea what they are worth. Could you please private message me what you think these are worth - preferably for each fish ratehr than as a package as i will prob sell separately unless someone wants them all etc. I am not sure of all the sexes etc My Fish: 3 x electric yellows - approx 6cm - 2 male & 1 female - i think 4 x tiger barbs - approx 4.5cm 1 x common pleco - approx 15-17cm 6 x silver dollars - approx 10cm 2 x jack dempseys - approx 9-10cm 2 x bristlenose catfish - approx 6cm - 1 male & 1 female i think 4 or five x Jewel cichlids - approx 8cm - a couple of each sex i think sorry for being a bit vague on the sexes, some of them are very hard to tell!! Thanks for your help!!!! if anyone is in dunedin and is looking to buy cichlids in the near future feel free to drop us a message also.

the person who served me wasnt a "fish person" and hence had no idea what it was either. looks pretty cool and wuld lve to know what it is so i could potentially get some more!

just got it from LFS in Dunedin

Hi, This is my dominant electric yellow, he has recently developed strong silver/blue markings around his mouth that i have never seen before. Have these occured due to died/hierachy/food?

HI Guys, Ive had this wee fellow for about 3 months and thought he looked pretty cool but never actually knew what species he is. Any ideas??

Hey guys, I think my female electrc yellow is holding eggs but am not too sure. She is about 8cm in size and is not eatting and looks large under the chin. Does she have eggs? What should i do next? i have never had any of my cichlids with eggs before so i am rather inexperienced with what to do etc..... any advice is appreciated Thanks

thanks, he is being fed tetra colour granules and JBL novo rift sticks, do you think this may cause it? the black stubble has gone away but he mauth and under side of the fish has now got a dark hint to it, it deos seem to change slightly from day to day

Whats a BGJD??

yeah its in the dominant male

yeah, i will add a couple of inches more

dunedin

heres a pic of my tank i have been setting up everything seems happy even though there is a mix of species and also even non-cichlids

i have four, 2m and 2f. they are about 7cm and i havn't seen any breeding behaviour at all yet

well its a bit of a weird mix in the tank at the mo, i have trialled a few mixes and this one seems to work ok for some reason 4 electric yellows 6 silver dollars 4 tiger barbs 2 kribensis 1 lumphead 6 jewels 2 blue acara 1 livingstonii random mix aye!

most Bristlenoses available are very small (3-4cm) do you think they will survive at this size?

i just did a few image searches and im leaning towards blue acara (maybe hybrid?). But around green terror and blue acara cichlids the speckling around the mouth appears to be more lines then spots, are these fish still to develop these lines? these fish are both about 7cm long. do these fish hybridise?

Hi, which plecos can i keep with africans? Is it possible to keep bristlenose plecos?

Is there a size or physical indication that lets you know that electric yellows are at sexual maturity??

do you think these are a hybrid? i have looked online and the pics i have seen don't show the red outline on the fins and they usually look more sparkly. how do you tell the difference between male and female? since i have two i wonder if they are compatible to breed

Hi guys, What species is this? i have two of these,

I am wondering if there are any non-cichlids that i could put in with my current lot? I have 6 jewels, 4 electric yellows, 2 hybrid things (no idea what they are), 1 lumphead and 1 "giraffe" (livingstonii) let us know any ideas!

so nothing is imported to nz at all?

Hi, I am wondering if there are any freshwater tropical shrimp available in nz? if so what species are they and where can you get them from?? thanks Todd :bounce:

what is masking?

The black marks are only around the mouth, almost like a little goatee, not on the rest of the body at all
