I'm sure the sites listing the sales say somewhere that it's up to the purchaser to be sure that the customs issues are handled properly and that they cannot be held responsible for anything.

I would say endlers as my first choice (I've never seen them bother their young) but if you want to watch some excellent parenting behavior, try convict cichlids. But be prepared for lots of babies...

They should really have more room to swim. They seem to like a minimum of a 4 foot tank. I have 10 in a 75 gallon and they seem happy. They are fine with my tiger barbs but i don't think they'd do...

If I remember correctly, putting the glass ON TOP of the tank will not hold, as the silicone is not very resistant to shearing forces. Cut to fit INSIDE the rim of the tank and siliconed would be...

Sterbai cories make ANYTHING look good. they are some of my favorites.

I would have suggested endlers but they're not schooling... just bright and shiny.

I've never had that problem... I've had them actively mate and lay eggs. I've even hatched a couple batches of them.

I just want to point out that the Denison Barbs would probably appreciate having more swimming room, length-wise. I believe 4 ft is generally considered the minimum for them.

For the sheer enjoyment and activity factors, I love the habrosus! My wife calls them the "Charlie Chaplin" cories because they always seem to moving around and wagging their tails.

I've had 2 and 3 flowers on the same plant. They will last for a few weeks and rot off unless you trim them off first.

Maybe cut the roots in a circle around the plant with a knife and leave the remaining roots in place? I know those plants can REALLY put out the roots, sometimes across the whole tank.

Maybe an airborne chemical like a air freshener, cleaning product or something else used in the home? I wouldn't necessarily have to have been used in the same room if it was potent enough.

Did they have any females? Ours only sell males. Not so good if you want to breed them, of course if you breed your own they lose your business.
