African Cichlids Feeding on Brine Shrimp
I stir 2 cubes of frozen brine shrimp and feed them to my African cichlids (and Pictus catfish) in my 90 gallon tank. Most of the fish in there are hybrids (originating from a cross between a male Melanochromis chipokae and a female albino ???) that refuse to die and keep breeding. They’re onto like the 10th+ generation or something now and more & more offspring seem to survive each generation as they become evermore adapted to the environment in my tank. The yellow fish with black-edged fins is a Labidochromis caeruleus (Yellow Lab). The 2 fish that are gray with black stripes & have red bellies are Amatitlania nigrofasciata (Convict Ciclids). There’s also 2 Pseudotropheus acei which are blue with yellow fins and 1 Metriaclima estherae OB (Red Zebra) that is orange-blotched with black splotches and is probably female. You can see my Metriaclima estherae at 3:53 to 3:57 up close. The Pictus catfish (Pimelodus pictus) are silver with gray spots and hover around primarily on the bottom. They swim really fast when trying to eat as much food as possible during feeding. There’s also a pleco of unknown specie & gender hiding in there somewhere, but I doubt he/she shows up in this vid.

African cichlids eating brine shrimp
Here’s my 55 gallon African cichlid tank. I fed them frozen brine shrimp and they go crazy. As soon as I tap my ring on the glass they go into a frenzy.

Oxymonacanthus longirostris – the Orangedspotted / Harlequin / Longnosed Filefish is generally considered to be an obligatory coral feeder…this possible female has, after 4 days, become an aggressive consumer of enriched frozen brine shrimp and has started to accept frozen Hikari Mysis. Whether this will be sufficient to sustain this fish for the long term is unknown. This fish was already eating when purchased…this is definitely not typical for the species.

a baby african dwarf frog
i have a baby african dwarf frog… (the large old one just passed away, so i got a new one…) this baby is only about a cm long… he wont eat anything i try to feed him… ive tried freeze dried blood worms, freeze dried brine shrimp, and flake food, but he wont eat it. i cant get to the store for a couple of weeks to buy frozen blood worms or brine shrimp, what can i feed him..(will tiny peices of frozen meat work..) any ideas would be great!!! also, should i keep him alone in his one gallon tank all to himself, or put him into a large already slightly overcrowded tank? and one last question… how long does it usually take for them to get fully grown? (my old one was two inches, but i bought him when he was fully grown…) i just want my baby froggie to be happy!! thanx in advance for any help and/or advise!!

African Clawed Frog (Dwarf)… Behaving Very Strange?
Ok, so until today hes been normal
i feed him frog pellets and frozen brine shrimp and he has the option of flakes that the other fish dont get to
today, he was floating around, not too strange for a frog, but he was floating upside down
he got stuck to the filter, but hes still moving
so i turned the filter off for a little while, its very clean water.
he then climbed on the filter and sat there
i didnt think that was too big of a deal
then i just walked in and he was out of the water, climbing the filter
whats wrong with him
hes molting
and hes a week old
Thanks for your help
