ParticipantNope, never seen it…

ParticipantFor juveniles, feed frozen baby brine shrimp, or Hikari “First Bites” or Sera “Mikropan”. For adults, feed frozen bloodworms and as many other varieties of foods as you can for best coloration. Read the label, avoid artificial ingredients as far as possible.

ParticipantThanks Glenn. They are all in fine health and some are showing very nice colors already. Feeding them good food.

ParticipantBeautiful, Glenn!!
What kind of snails are those?
celestialdude
ParticipantThanks! That works out to about 3.3 Watts per Gallon. About the same as my 45-gallon (that’s pretty much 180 litres)… but your plants look way healthier! What’s your secret to such nice plants?
celestialdude
ParticipantThat is awesome Luke! Thanks for the photos!! And your descriptions are totally correct!!
celestialdude
ParticipantThanks for the tip, I’ll look out for this plant to add to my tank.
Oh another question if you don’t mind — for your lighting — how many Watts per Gallon is your tank?
celestialdude
ParticipantI see you have some “moon lights” for the night lighting, nice effect!
What’s the name of the plant that you have mostly on the bottom? The one with spiky leaves fanning in a circle?
celestialdude
ParticipantAwesome photos of your cories, plecos, shrimp and goby. Some of the finest specimens I’ve ever seen. Keep up the great work Glenn!!!

ParticipantDunno if this helps, but for the longest time I had low success breeding them. Then I did one thing — put the heater on the same electrical timer as the lights, which means that it’s only on in the daytime — and all of a sudden it was babies everywhere. Something that you might like to keep in mind. I guess the day/night temperature variations make them happy.

ParticipantWhen you have CO2 injection and lots of different plants, you prevent the growth of “dirty” algae. I think good aeration (from airstone) and circulation are factors as well. And of course having a good filter with biological filtration.

ParticipantWelcome to the forum, teenie, and glad to hear you’re getting them to breed. As for the shrimp, I never got a conclusive answer myself, but it seems like my recent batch is doing much better than when I had shrimp in the tank… so I would conclude that yes, having no shrimp in your fry tank is a good idea.

ParticipantWhew…. good disaster recovery from the wife there. Thankfully the CPDs are all OK!!!
celestialdude
ParticipantGood to hear! Glad you are having success breeding them. Soon you’ll be able to sell them too and help bolster the overall population.
celestialdude
ParticipantThat is so awesome!
