srry alan just got ur pm. Do not spawn on mops i find it useless and gives way less numbers.I spawn mine in peat 4 7 days and then squeeze the peat till damp and store for 14 days.I hav hatched some aswell at 6 weeks and were fine.Store at 24-28 for me but could go at 21-23 i get even sex ratios maybe a slightly more males. kyle

hi Ye i thought it was those guys too jake???Ye got a new camera i think its the same as yours finepix S5600?? kyle

Hi there I just been to Phill's place and saw and took some photos of some of the imports.Below are photos Tiger whips-These guys were easily sexable Peru Zebra Another pic A male apsito of some kind A type of Bristlenose Another pic of the bristlenose Another Pic of the bristlenose (these guys were my favourites) It was really nice to meet u Phill Cheers Kyle

woops sorry i thought u ment 12cm my bad ure rite :oops: kyle

Hey phill are u sure about the size of the zebby's as they only get about 8cm long? kyle]

Sounds like an awesome list phill especially L091 Anyone got a snail problem get these guys are justas good as clown loaches. http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/loricari/leporaca/200_10.PHP cheers Kyle

Btw those four i have came from stu anyway, kyle

These are my fish on tm.Photo is of the father who i got from stu and these were bread by me and are still young.Angels i dont know Alan any comment on keeping these guys with angels kyle

Hi Panaque vittata does not exist it is panaque sp. L204.Breeding in captivity was only fairly recently achieved in USA so you must have been the first the phill??Did you get your fish from this place http://www.aquariumpaex.com ???That would explain why u are calling them vittata kyle

Well the thing ids they have only been spawned a couple of times.I am saying if someone bought off that auction with rong info they wont breed them. kyle

Panaque Vittata ?? no such thing.Do u mean peckoltia vittata which is what he doesnt hav.Fisrt off the panaque on trademe is extremely hard to breed and i doubt anyone wll in nz.A good breedable sp in nz L260 or L134 which im not sure if there is any L134. kyle

I have on the loricariidae side 1 colombian plec 25 GBA's 5 adult banded whips about 40 babies and more eggs on the way 5 L270 choc zebras 6 L52 butterfly plecs 2 LG6 whips with eggs 4 snowflake bn 4 twigs (gone tommorow) 1 royal whip ye thats about it and you should be able to tell from my list that i mainly get things tha are breedable. kyle

Hi That auction has quite a bit of false info.Firstly they get 13cm.He says just add pots too breed NO!!these guys are really hard to breed in captivity.The smaller panaque sp tend to be hard to breed.Need wood in their diet and alot of patience is needed.Need a lot of cyclops to condition the female.But they are a cool species.A better plec would be a peckoltia sp or hypancistrus sp if you are wanting to breed. kyle

woops sorry i never actually looked at the auction so yea anthony he is prepared to post. kyle

Anthony if you want a pair i can ship them down to you i have about 10 pairs spare at the mo. kyle

cheers Kyle

Ye i asked i they could get me some N. Rachovii and they said next march from germany. cheers Kyle

Sorry alan i thought he only wanted it for display as never mentioned breeding?? kyle

Alan M the gld australe i believe have pretty good bloodlines as i know quite a few nzka members refresh there stock via petworld in chch.You say ur male is from South AFrica then ma be wild caught as the killifish association over there is very poor but fish farming is very big in Natal especially Kwazulu Natal.Good luck with the fry.They should be ready to spawn at 2 months if not within if fed properly. cheers Kyle

Ok sorry alanmin i thought you didnt have space for them anywhere else so yea it is best kept seperate.Alan that strain you are talking about is a really nice strain Look anything like this?http://www.killies.com/gallaustralegold.htm.Well both alans give me a shout if you ever need chocs as i have a lot.I am still spawning the gold for you alan minery and have seen them spawn heaps so should give u more than 10 so sorry about that. Cheers Kyle

Alan he got them both from me.I have hatched out 120 +fry of choc australe from my pair and havnt got one different so i doubt he will aswell.Mixing is fine as long as u can tell the ifference now one should be a lot more golden.I think He has 10 golds and 12 choc or something?? kyle

yep just seperate them b4 they start to spawn.cheers kyle

Yes i reckon you could.You could have 2 notho species 1 would have to be guentheri gold and maybe one of the other 3 sp we have as all the of these females look the same.You could also have gardneri gold,blue and albino easly told apart.Both australes choc and gold easly told apart and sjo's.The only thing is that sjo's will eat everything aprt frm the gardneri.If you wanted a tank with nice colour you could have a few pairs of Aphyosemions eg bitaeniatum,australe and maybe a gardneri sp but they can be aggressive.So yes you can have a tank mixed with killies just got to choose the rite ones. cheers Kyle

yes its very easy one is gold and one is brown.Lucky we dont have the normal cape lopez as choc females and the normals look the same. cheers Kyle

Ok since i have started a war here :lol: i will tell yo what i have been told to do by an electrician.He said i must put a rcd or something like that which will then trip the connection if any water does get to it.This sounds quite good but wondering how much am i going to pay for one of these?? cheers Kyle
