poissonrouge Hobbyist Posts: 94 Kudos: 105 Votes: 1 Registered: 27-Sep-2003  | the firemouth's about 3.5 inches, still not mature i don't think, but very docile. peole always compare festivum to angels, and even gourami, and my firemouth gets on really well with the 4 gourami i have in my tank. I'd love a festivum but they just don't seem to have them anywhere in britain, at least not for reasonable pricing. that's a very colourful firemouth for one that size too, normally they're a bit duller as juveniles. |

moondog Moderator The Hobnob-lin Posts: 2676 Kudos: 1038 Votes: 4366 Registered: 30-Sep-2002 | i've been looking to buy festivum for *years* now with no luck it's not like i will keel over if i don't get them, but if i could find even one (at a decent price  ) then i wouldn't hesitate to get it."That's the trouble with political jokes in this country... they get elected!" -- Dave Lippman |

keithgh  *Ultimate Fish Guru* Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003   | Theresa_M The more you practice using the camera the better the photos. I have a stool close to the tank. By sitting there regually they seem to get used to you other that at feeding times. This makes it easer to take the photos. Well done great photos I like all the diferent colours you have managed to capture. Keith  Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

| Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004 | are the firemouth and festivum in the same tank? Yes they are. How large is your firemouth? Mine is tiny, so quite young...maybe 1.5" long. It's still quite shy and doesn't bother any of the other fish. So far the festivum keeps to itself as well, generally in the top section of the tank. Very nice looking, interesting fish...I'm really glad I found it since I've heard many people say they don't often see them at lfs. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

| poissonrouge Hobbyist Posts: 94 Kudos: 105 Votes: 1 Registered: 27-Sep-2003 | are the firemouth and festivum in the same tank? my firemouth is outright docile except towards my krib, i was wondering how well they get on with other semi-peaceful cichlids, especially since festivum have long been on my fishlist too. |

| Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004 | And I finally got a picture of the still-elusive, really-don't-like-to-see-that-camera firemouth: Theresa_M attached this image:  ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

| Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004 | Messed around with the camera this afternoon and got some decent shots. Still working on my firemouth, who is quite small and shy. My festivum is new and a bit shy as well, I was only able to get this pic so far: Theresa_M attached this image:  Last edited by Theresa_M at 28-Sep-2004 12:39[/font] Last edited by Theresa_M at 28-Sep-2004 15:55 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

| Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004 | Great shots, I'd love to see one of that cute loach next to the Keyhole. I put some in a new thread since these were all cichlid pictures of mine  dwarf chain loachwhere do you find festivum? I bounce around between four non-chain lfs, went to this particular store today because they carry Bolivians. As I was looking at the rams I glanced up and saw festivum  I've been doing a lot of research on them and they were on my fish-wish-list Apparently it was only the second or third time this store has carried them.They're finally coming out a little more now: Last edited by Theresa_M at 28-Sep-2004 15:53 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |
