And sapphire female

My sapphire (dark electric blue) boy:

It could work, then again, it could not work. What I usually do is remove the first fish from the tank for a few days to a week, then add back together with the new fish. Or, majorly change up the decor so that it looks like a new environment.

I have 2 females that turned out like this. Is this considered a "blue sapphire"? I've seen them referenced as dark electric blue.

I am enjoying my tank rack. There's room for 3 more 10 gallon tanks on the bottom shelf, as well as a couple on the top shelf, if I need to expand. It is nice and convenient to have all the tanks in one spot.

Here are some of mine. I would love to create something similar to the blue knight's appearance but more sparkly.

Decided to go with the lights. They're 60" long, so I needed 3 to cover 3 rows of tanks. Added some various Anubias plants from dustinsfishtanks.com. Driftwood and more plants will be added from the current tanks when I get ready to transfer the fish over. Working my way through a fishless...

Congrats! It's so rewarding seeing them hatch, wriggle, swim, and mature. I particularly like watching them eat BBS like little piranhas.

I found a light fixture that spans the 60" length of 3 10 gallon tanks. I have to play with it... it comes with a remote and I'm hoping it has a nice cycle of light. Bought just one to see if I like it..

Lids, water, sand, heaters, thermometers, and sponge filters in place.

No, I made no alterations besides adding the plywood on top of the wire shelves. This unit is rated for up to 2,500 lbs per shelf. Fingers crossed it stays structurally sound! I'm not sure if it's more hoarder-ish to have a variety of tanks all over, or uniform ones all in one space. For me...

Finally I'm moving forward with my metal shelving rack build! At least it is in the house now, set in its spot. So far: Husky 3 tier heavy duty shelving unit, 65w 54h 24d from The Home Depot 3/4" plywood shelves, painted black on top and white underneath Aqueon tanks with glad lids- 6...

Forgive me if everyone already knows this, but I recently started doing it this way, and found it to be way easier than using flexible tubing alone. I added a 12" length of rigid tubing on each end of a piece of flexible airline tubing, to be used to syphon the bottom of my fry tanks. It...

What are they in now? I have a small batch of 3 and 4 week old fry that are housed in a 10 gallon tank. When they were younger, the tank was only filled 1/3 of the way. As they got bigger and stronger, I added more water to the tank.

Hi all! I am in the beginning stages of creating a 3-shelf metal rack for my ram breeding tanks. Right now I'm focused on the middle and bottom shelves. The shelves are wire, but I will be adding painted 3/4" plywood on top of the wire. The middle row consists of 6 10-gallon tanks (2 rows of...

This is how I did mine.

OK... it begins. Ended up buying that one I referenced. Rack is put together and sitting in the garage for now. I picked up a few tanks at Petco, but need to buy a few more still. It will house 2 20-gallon longs on the bottom; 6 10-gallons on the middle*; and I'm not sure what all's going...

I have been breeding ram cichlids this year, and I've decided to ditch the random tanks that have been taking over my family room and kitchen counter, and organize uniform-sized tanks on a Home Depot-purchased metal shelving rack. I'm not sure how many tanks I can fit on each shelf, as I won't...

Thank you, this helps! With that information, I do not believe any in my batch are golds, as they do have some pigment and aren't that light in color. Here is a recent pic of the fry. It's a poor quality photo, unfortunately. I believe the fry are too dark to be golds, and too light to be black...

Thank you; I'll do a search. I am looking for up-close photos of young fry to try to figure out what I have. It was easy to distinguish blacks from golds, but I'm curious with EBxblack. You are a legend around these parts, and I'm so stoked to have gotten a response from you! :)
