geophagus tapajos

Hi, I have the opportunity to purchase some Balzanii but want to make sure that I am 100% certain on their care before I make the purchase. I have a group of very young geo tapajos and I know that they prefer higher temps. I have heard that an artificial winter of 15-18 degrees is best for...

Hi, I am new here. I am currently growing out 4 geophagus tapajós and two Satanoperca Jurupari for a 6ft (550L) aquarium and recently acquired a 2-3” ST. Could these species live together in the 6ft until the datnoid outgrew it ? I currently have them housed all separately in smaller grow outs...

Like my other post I purchased 9 of these guys and looking for others who have bred them, looking for tips and experience. Thank You

Hello, New to this site, been keeping mixed community fish for over 20 years. Generally tropical south american and different catfish. I am upgrading from a 55 gallon (48" long) to a 150 gallon (66" long..weird dimensions). I've never had a tank this large and have no clue what I'm doing with...

Hi I have this Red Head Thorichthys maculipinnis Adult for sale. Nothing wrong just looking to lighten my Bio load. Asking $60 obo located in 91335.

I’m preparing to stock a new 125 gallon tank (will be cycled prior to adding fish). I’d love some expert advice. I want to keep some combination of geophagus tapajos, threadfin acara, angelfish, and Bolivian rams. Maybe some sort of schooling dither fish also. I just don’t know how many of each...

I'm running out of room, so offering up my latest batch of Geophagus Tapajos fry to anyone that want's them. Location - Everett, WA area. Local pick up or meet up only. Fry has been free swimming for 2 weeks and is very vigorous, so should transport fine. This is the 4th spawn of parents, so...

Famale ? Or male?

Hello chaps and chapettes My Geophagus Tapajos have yet another batch of fry, thought I would try and get some close ups of their larvophile mouthbrooding behavior. My colony of 7 geos is about 2.5 years old now. The largest is just shy of 17cm, and the smallest just over 12cm.

Just sharing my newly added silver Arowana. I was returning my tinfoil barbs to the LFS (was planning have a Geo and Oscar only aquarium), and found the lovely huge piece of wood you see in the background. So I bought the wood and got a free silver thrown in haha. (I think for the tinfoils and...

Just an update on my 180gal community tank. Had the tinfoils for a month now. As you would expect have shown remarkable growth.

As some of you may know already I have 15 x silver dollars and 1 x Jardini in my 180 gal. Then 7 x Geophagus Tapajos in my 40ish gal. As of now everything is balanced, no aggression, great water quality (water change once a week as soon as nitrates reach 20ppm, sometimes every 5 days if its a...

Hello, I am going to be rescaping and changing the fish around in my 180G tank (6x2x2ft with a 4ft sump). I am new to a planted tank so don't have a lot of knowledge when it comes to it but I have extensive knowledge in regards to fish keeping. The big part of it which I guess will affect other...

hi guys! made a video about my weekly water change routine of my geophagus tapajos red head aquarium. i just love the brownish look of catappa leaves and alder cones! i think it just looks so much more "natural"

I was wondering what is the largest geophagus "red head / orange head " tapajos you have seen? There are mixed reports as to how big these guys actually get. I haven't seen ones larger than 13cm.

Hello everyone, I got 4[1jumped out and passed away :(] geophagus labeled as geophagus tapajos red head. It was like 8months ago and they were probably 3/4months old. The thing is I already had a couple 4years ago and they were a lot light color and with more red and orange than this ones, and...
