  3. ive got 2 fry so far. None of which are albino. Hopfully some are. She must have mated with normal koi swordtails that where in her tank
  4. Arrr yes the "Gambusia Affinis". From the Poecilidae family.They also come in a spotted form. They make great food for cichlids. They love mossies larve but they compete with native fish for food. keep them or dont keep them? I think that as long as they are controled then they should be fine, as long as they are kept out of our water ways , where they can compete with our native fish.

  8. Hi there. Has anyone ever had Giardia in there tank????? I know it a parasite and lives in still moving waters. I caught some small shrimp from a creek not that long ago and have been thinking about it more and more. Maybe I brought in some Giardia with the shrimp :-? Have any of you guys had it in your tanks?
