I have kept guppies with L46 for a while and I didn't experience any problems. The zebras our naturally shy but the guppies seem to ignor them and will eagerly fishish uneaten food.

I use wood that has fallen into a stream during the winter and decomposed slightly in near freezing water. Although I fully love the wood that my local fish store has, it is rather limited in sizes and shapes. In the spring I travel to the canyon and find wood.

The wood looks different because it ...

I used a slice of cucumber when I had fry. It isn't exactly a well balanced meal, but helped a lot with the survival rates.

I would like anyones input/opinion on this. But here is my own.

Nearly twelve years ago I wrote an 8 page research paper on the L46. These fish were totally captivating to me and I could only find a short paragraph on them anywhere. Years later, the fun is still there.

I recently worked on a series of four DVD's on how to maintain and setup an aquarium. You can ...

First, I would like to point out that a regular routine of water changes is a lot safer in maintaining a healthy water system than guess work.

Do the MTS have benefits, or is it worth it to have snails in a tank? Maybe (don't you love answers like that) I feel it is worth it to have something to ...

A few tips on capturing your latest L46 fry or that moment you want to have forever. Many of us are familiar with taking digital photos and even video but have difficulty capturing images when inside an aquarium.

First use a tripod. Because the light in a typical aquarium is low being dimmed by ...
