bazz Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hi guys, Can you please help me ID these fish sorry for the poor photo quality they never stop moving!! I also have the issue where the brownie coloured one doesnt stop breeding. I have over 50 fry of them plus another 50 fry of yellows and demasoni and peacocks. How can I stop them breeding? I have venustus and cuckoo cats I thought that would stop them but hasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellows Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Not an expert mate but pics 1 & 3 are male and female hongi and pic 2 is a male Christmas fulu if you want to stop them breeding put the brownny one in a tank on it's own for awhile hope this helps cheers Yellows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazz Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Thanks guys, haha keeper I like the flameback. Cheers for the scientific name donny appreciated! well those bloody hongi breed like rats, I have too many of them yellows must be a few pairs breeding will sell them all as soon as they are big enough unless they can crossbreed. Can the hongi easily crossbreed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazz Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hi donny, I was referring to "yellows" the bloke who replied however i do have electric yellows with them. I need to get rid of some of these fish its ridiculous I have to feed them sooo much and change water bi - tri weekly. May take some of them to the LFS this weekend, which african other then venustus can you recommend to keep the fry under control? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny@ageofaquariums Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Electric blues are excellent, but not much beats a livingstoni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazz Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Oh ok great thanks donny, will look at adding some blues I only have a 4x2x2 so im worried the tank will be too small for a livingstonii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
