CPD in May 2010 Edition of TFH Magazine

[dxiong5]

An article on Celestial Pearl Danios (Exploring the Galaxy) is in the May 2010 issue of Tropical Fish Hobbyist magazine.

is this on the net anywhere?

As far as I know, it’s just in the Tropical Fish Hobbyist magazine or on-line through the digital subscription.

I was quite disappointed with the article and expressed my disappointment on the TFH forum.

Thanks for the link! I think you should write your own article. I think you have enough knowledge and practical experience to make it an informative article. It’s all about learning and teaching! I say….go for it!

I am really confused after reading that! Heat the water up to induce breeding make it cooler? :shock:

Those poor fish in the pictures look awful, I wanted to feed them some live food or something. :!:

Thanks for the vote of confidence Aquagirl!

I’ve been getting permission to use some photos and little by little I think I’m getting closer to my CPD article.

I am so confused after reading that article. Do you raise the temp to breed them or do you do a w/c with cooler water.

Those poor fish in the pictures looked awful. I wanted to give them some live food, poor things! :cry:

Great news about the pictures. I found that most people in the aquatic hobby are so great about sharing their pictures. I will wait patiently for your article.

Actually I’ve never had to play around with the water temperature to get them to spawn. I generally like to keep mine between 68-78F and they breed like rabbits. I have noticed that when it gets very warm, above 80F they stop spawning. That’s what happened with all my breeders this summer.

You are so right! Every single person I have asked responded with a yes. One of my first requests was of our very own resident photographer Glenn. If you haven’t looked at his photos yet, you are in for a treat!

Thank you for the link, I checked that thread out the other night and was amazed that he could get such nice photo’s of small babies. It is a great record of their growth rate.

My camera is great but I still can’t take good photo’s. I really need to take the time to learn how to use it the right way! :oops:

Thank you for the information on the breeding! Haven’t even thought that far ahead but was curious when I read that.
