Hi all. I have now go 2 small tanks set up for breeding. A 30cm cube and a 40cm generic size tank.
I am trying to breed my killies... Which I have already managed to do by accident. Will get to that later.
And also have a quartet of CPD's... 3 of which are males as it turns out.
The 30cm cube I am wanting to use as the killing spawning tank, where every other day ill replace the tuff of moss and place the eggy one somewhere else... I have an endless supply of it so that's not a problem. Here's the tank as of this morning:
It has DIY co2 and shares a 50w 6500K led with its neighbour. I know they are guppies in there right now. I gave the tank a full on clean yesterday, so just making sure the water is safe.
The 40cm tank currently houses the CPD's... nothing too it, bare bottom, bubble filter and some LED strips for lighting.
Currently the fish that hatch i have been putting into a breeder floating in on of my brothers... He has a constant supply of brine shrimp so thats the easiest solution for me.
So thats basically it for now... I'm moving out pretty much as of today, so hopefully my bother can keep it going for me! Until of course i'm settled and take a tank or 2 with me.
Anyway, the 5 young killies i have at the moment came from some moss i pulled out of their tank 2 weeks ago and placed in the cpd one. It was overgrowing the killie tank a little. Then yesterday i fished out some young. Fun! Fully didn't expect that!
Lastly, here is my moss factory:
Ill try update as i go or when i get a chance. Im starting a new job in a weeks time about 80km from here... so will do my best.
