Hi Youkai,
I currently have three Panaqolus maccus in a twenty, along with four Corydoras (C. julii, C. paleatus, C. panda and C. schwarzi), three Red-Eyed tets and four Lemon tetras.
The tank is equipped with an air-driven under-gravel filter, 100 watt Ebo-Jaeger heater, flourescent lighting, live and silk plants, and drift-wood (of course).
I've had a LOT of aquariums over the years, but since getting more into herps, the aquarium hobby has kind of gotten left by the wayside. This little twenty is the only dedicated fish-aquarium I have left.
Anyway, My three P. maccus are only about 1-3/4" long at the moment so they've got a bit of growing to do yet. I'd like to try breeding them eventually (If there's a pair here). I've been trying to observe them as closely as possible in order to see if I can differentiate any sexual characteristics, but it's iffy yet, at best, although one of them seems to have more prominent spines on the body and longer tail filaments than the others. We'll have to wait and see, though. With my luck I've got three males...LOL! Maybe I'll pick up another one.
How many do you have? How big/old are they? What's your set-up like?
Cheers,
Simon
