    Hi,

    From the name i think your from germany, as for you tank id place Hornwart (Hornkraut) as a swimming plant in there too, the temp id have at around 24°C.

    Personally id leave out the Beta Splendins but thats my point of view and put 10 rather than 7 CPDs in your aquarium.

    I also tend to feed mine twice a day but only as much as they can eat in 2-3 minutes, i also have a day where i dont feed them usealy Sundays as i do my water changes on saturdays and dont like feeding them directly after a water change.

    Hi all,

    According to my sources (Glazer and Mimbon) the biggest importers in Europe, there are no wild CPDs being exported, all the stock the importers have are home bred by a few fishbreeders who got the first imported stock.

    3. Always say sir even if they have told you thier name.
    4. Dont Panik keep calm

    My eldest daughter (15 now) used to be the same, i used to go on a fish shop tour every thursday night (shops open till 8pm) and she would always be the first by the car even if it meant driving 5-6 hours for a good tour. Now shes old enough and had a change of intrest (BOYS). She still comes with me to the importers on a Wednesday night (Import day) and helps unpack the boxes that have arrived but she dosent want a fish tank anymore.
