    Hi all,

    When making your own bbs, use Iodine(Jod) free salt, 32gr per 1 Liter and 16 gr of brine ship eggs. Air line to the bottom of the bottle and after 12-18 hours your first bbs will have hatched, the last ones should hatch after maximal 36 hours, you could always feed the bbs with liquifry no.1

    Hi all,

    It dosent realy worry me what they are called, main thing is to keep them and breed them and look at them everyday with dreamy eyes :shock:

    Hi again,

    I havent got a digicam at the moment ive wished for a DSLR camera for my birthday (40 in November) so once ive got it i hope theres server space for the photos :D

    I just checked one of our Freshwater shrimp sites and found out that someones selling 9 Wild Caught (F0) Celestichthys margaritatus as well, i hope i was the first to pn and email, id pick them up like tomorrow if i was.

    Im hoping to bring a big enough gene pool into my project and have enough aquariums to house them. With 9 W/C and 20 F1 from someone else id have to select carefully not wanting to mate brother with sister etc.

    Ohh Forgot to say the cichlid i keep are mainly Julidochromis speices from the Lake Tanganjika, i have J. Transcriptus Gombi, J. Transcriptus Kissi, J. Ornatus “Yellow”, J. Ornatus Albino, J. Regani Kipili. Im trying to get a few more different locations but its not easy.

    Im also a Moderator on the German Forum http://www.cichlidenwelt.de

    Mfg Peter

    F0 is Wild caught Or the start of a new line, F1 first generation, F2 fry from F1 line etc etc…

    Ive just realised ive not introduced myself, My names Peter, im married with 2 teenage daughters (nightmare dont ask :D ) Im english but live and work in Germany

    Ive been keeping mainly cichlids for the last 25 years, but since i saw the Microrasbora sp. ‘Galaxy’ at last years Duisberg fish-fair ive been mad about it. My fishroom has 2 600L Aquariums and 19 112L aquariums.

    What im trying now is a breending setup for Microrasbora sp. ‘Galaxy’ using 12 L tanks per pair keeping the pair in there for a maximum of 5 days them returing them to the main setup.

    Mfg Peter

    This should be intresting reading, but this could be where glowlight Danios come from and its not natural.
