I bought my fish in China (living there) and from my bad Chinese was under the impression it was an Oscar (Ditu Yu). It's head has grown in size and I'm beginning to think it maybe a breed of Flowerhorn, maybe even a texas cichlid. I would like to get another couple of fish, but am worried about how aggresive this one will be with the rest. It's very active fish and chases after your hand like a Flowerhorn even though it's still very small. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Best regards,

Patto

My neighbor is wanting to give us a ~6" red tailed barb. We have 6 south american cichlids in our tank...for just under 2 weeks. I am hesitant to put this fish in our 55 gallon tank. Will these mix well? Or would this harm either of the fish??

I recently bought a pair of Rams and I've been having problems since day one. Most of the time the bigger one is attacking the smaller. I did some reading on the forum about this problem and it helped a lot. The only thing I'm not sure of is whether I have two males or male and female. So I was hoping some of you could help me out. Thanks!
