Hey, whats everyones new fish plans for the next year…
mine is to get a fishroom up and running and to successfully breed my gouramis :lol:Hi mate, all the best. My fish plans for the new year?? mmmm let me think..
I would like to continue having good luck with my current breeding project and new future ones.
I would also like to master the harder dwarf cichlids and have some success with the Apistogramma Iniridae i am currently keeping.
I have also set the target of aquiring and breeding all nine species in the Pelvicachromis Genus, i have bred two so far, the hardest part will be finding them. I dont think it will be complete in the next year…I’m working my way through pleco projects: the Ancistrus hatchery is still under full swing, which has given me enough store credit to get a trio of L-401’s and seven L-66’s. A male of each is in a cave now, and some of the females look like they swallowed golf balls, so maybe… If they’ll breed, then proceeds from the fry may give me enough fish-$ to get a couple of L-46’s (zebra plecos). I’ve been smitten with them since just before Brazil banned their export a couple years ago, but haven’t had enough hobby-budget to get any yet.
Steve’s gotten me hooked on Pelvicachromis — just need to find mates for a couple of nice unidentified female taeniatus variants I picked up a week or so ago. The coconut caves are ready whenever they are!
A few DIY CO2 generators are up and bubbling away next to my tanks, so now I need to get ahold of some EI fertilizer powders and hopefully the live plants will take off.
And of course, helping new CPDs come into the world continues to be a responsibility for me since I contributed to taking 9 of them out of the wild.
Other than that, just trying to keep the *tanks* from breeding, so I don’t have to toss out any more furniture!
Just got a nice T5 lighting fixture for my new 45-gallon. Hoping to turn it into a nice Glossostigma (that’s a carpet plant with small leaves) planted tank. Also, need to figure out what to do with my existing 20-gallon from which I’ve migrated all the existing fish.
Other than that… hoping for more Celestials. Of my original 4, one died, but 1 fry has been born and has made it into semi-adulthood. Looking out for more specimens to add to my breeding collection.
