I can speak from experience that the Angel’s do not live on any schedule humans keep, LOL. Mine usually spawn at least once a month, sometimes every couple of weeks if they’re really in the mood. The babies never survive as once they hatch they are quickly devoured by the parents, but […]
Ah yes, after looking over Jasmine’s Angel’s I see what you mean about the hump, mine are not like that at all, they are more like her “koi” Angel. By the way Jasmine, your Koi Angel is gorgeous, mine does not look nearly as pretty, he has very little black spotting, and […]
I thank you for all the info you’ve recently posted on Angel’s Ray, I myself went to my tank to see if I could see the differences pointed out and most of them were present in my pair. The only one that I could not see was the “hump” on my male, […]
Hi Jasmine, The other Angelfish that you posted yesterday, that you feel is a female is actually the male. This Angelfish that you just posted today, in the right forefront (with the male in the left background) in both recent photos, is the female. You have them reversed in you diagnosis of […]
I’m not sure if you accidentally misspelled Pleco when you referred to it as Pelco but that is a common internet myth about this group of fish. According to the myth, if you spell Pleco as Pleco and not misspell it as Pelco or Pl*co or Plec, your Pleco will die. PLECO, PLECO, PLECO, […]
Lenny — my apologies about calling you Shakey — he’s a guy on another list that I am on (and not fish related). I was looking at a post of his before I read yours, but hey, I think emulation is the best form of flattery

I know I replied to this thread and included a couple of links.
Am I now “Shakey”?
Hmmm.. it does sound like a cool nickname even if done by accident. I might have to change it to GoldShakey first so folks will recognize me and then eventually drop the Gold until I’m just known as Shakey.
If […]
Hi Steve, Haven’t had any experience with this particular filter, but I can see its concept has good applications when combined with UV. As Lenny points put though, it would not be beneficial to use it in a permanent situation — for various reasons. Among them, would be the elimination of most all […]
I have parrots so I get cuttlebones periodically so that’s not a big deal to me. Thanks for all the background info though.

I have never tested my calcium levels and my water is kind of hard to start with so the pieces of cuttlebone http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuttlebone that I put in my filters last a LONG time. I suspect that in your more acidic water (low pH), it might dissolve faster, so you should probably start with a […]
