geophagus

I am wondering if it is possible to keep a single saum cichlid with my group of 7 geo. Tapajos? I imagine to each other they would look similar, and I don't want my geos being harassed or anything. Tank dimensions are 6ft x 2ft x 2ft, there would most likely also be a school of silver...

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...

Hello Fellow Fish Lovers, A little background to explain my situation. For the last year I have been testing a "no water change" 220 liter aquarium for a company. The goal of this test is to determine if their filteration system works as they advertise - basically, beautiful tank with little to...

I am going to be setting up a 125 gallon tank in the summer and plan on stocking it with some Geophagus, however which species, how many and what tank mates are problems that I have. For tank mates, I like the idea of some silver dollars or perhaps some other species of cichlid- such as green...

75g tank. I have x4 3inch Geophagus Red-Head Tapajos. One of my Geos has dug a nest hole smack dab in the middle of the tank. He hasn't paired off yet, but he's chasing everything around the tank relentlessly. He faced off against a big 7inch pleco today. He's not even the largest Geo in the...

I have a small group of 4 inch Geophagus 'Tapajos' and a 6 inch Black Ghost Knifefish. If I get a baby Oscar, will my current fish grow fast enough to avoid eventually being eaten? I know Oscars grow quite fast in comparison. BTW, I'm not worried about aggression, I have that covered.

How old were your eartheaters when they started breeding? I heard for A. heckelii it takes 2-3 years. What about Geophagus? I know it depends on the species.

I want to see how many different kinds there are - I'll post mine, too!

So I've been doing some looking around for a while now trying to figure out if red ceder is safe to use, ( I have 2 large pieces in my 125 gallon setup) I found mixed opinions, some people saying no at all and some saying yes if it is old and boiled/ soaked properly. I have been having an issue...

I've been looking at starting up a Reverse Osmosis System to try and purify my tap water because I'm starting to think that my tap water contains high levels of nitrates and that is why I'm having a hard time keeping nitrates down in my 125 gallon setup. I've been looking at the RO unit that...
