    Established tank crash? How to get back on track?

    Hello MFK! Anyone who's seen my posts knows that I have a 90 gallon tank with a leopard ctenopoma, and six keyhole cichlids. (two of which have paired) I cycled the tank itself in The summer, and added the fish to the tank in July. Until now, there have been no issues with water quality at all...

However, both the ctenopoma and most of the cichlids are quite larger now, and I'd like to get them on...

    Best diet?

    Hello all! I’m currently in the process of setting up a 90 -gallon freshwater tank, which I plan on stocking with a senegal bichir, a bristlenose pleco, a leopard bush fish, and 5 keyhole cichlids.

    Lonely fish?

    I have a 55 gallon with 2 small delhezi bichirs and a small leopard bush fish (leopard ctenopoma). The bichirs are always hiding and don't interact with the leopard bush fish really. Do you think the leopard bush fish would get lonely? Thinking of getting another leopard bush fish for company...

    Leopard ctenopoma adult size and bloodworms

    Will a leopard ctenopoma really reach 6 inches in captivity? Also, would it be a good idea to feed bloodworms to a full grown adult, or would the bloodworms be too small?
