mine had shells, they like hopped around
-
i've got them too, nothing ti worry about i dont think.
-
i get worried about my fish cross breeding sometimes but it almost never happens to me if there is a mate for them of the same species. I was a bit skeptical about my kenyi because my male isn't the boldest fish and about 5 other males could easily beat him, NORMALLY. But when the female wanted to breed he just went PSYCHO!!!!!
-
They could, but most likely not. The main worry would be if there was only females of one of the species and they wanted to breed, so they bred with the other species male.
-
umm, i find that they wont come out with too much light. Otherwise try some dither fish such as melanotaenia species (rainbow fish)
-
BTW i have 20mm on my 7'x2'x2'
-
let me know when you want to get rid of your malawians caryl
-
looks awesome, congratulations
-
i have a p-65 should be enough for 17 sponges, i run 4 small airstones, 10 of the 20cm airstones, 2 3foot ugf's and about 8 sponge filters off it. plenty to spare. what price are you planning on buying it for?
-
i am printing it as a double sided A5 booklet thats probably why it was a bit mucked up, luke will have it right next time
-
That would be great if you could do that luke, can you change it into pdf as well?

when do we get our fnzas discount cards? the old ones have expired now, they only go till august. do you not like the newsletter tanksman? it does take quite alot of effort so please think before degrading someone elses work
-
i dont think it's possible to breed them in captivity, i assume they would have to be about 25cm or so to breed.
-
yup, should be fine in one tank with malawis i have a decorus and a featherfin and in another tank i have a network and 2 decorus.
-
hi I got mine for $17.50 at 6cm or so but expect to pay about $40-$50 each
-
i have seen some made out of undergravel filter uplift tubes (3cm diameter) i just use an airstone with them in a jar to keep them moving, water changes 2 times a day
-
hi springer, why don't you come along on our next tank crawl. See more details at the end of this thread - http://www.fnzas.org.nz/fishroom/6-vt6879.html?start=75 You get to come along and see what everyone in hamilton has in their tanks and hopefully join our club Hope you can come along :bounce:

AWESOME!
-
i've heard that if you feed fish good from the start they colour better even if they have bad genes?
-
the guy that they came from is one of the best breeders in new zealand, he would not sell a hybrid.
-
well from what i can remember the fish she put into the tank were yellows, borleyis, ahlis and jacobfreibergis.
-
i have a few fish holding/bred too I have holding: 1 auratus 1 lombardoi I have with eggs sacks: 60 auratus from one drop 50 yellows from 2 drops 10 OB zebras And about 80 other fish under 2cm Dolphins can be a pain to breed, they hardly ever hold full term, i got the eggs off mine and got 99% up to 5cm
-
if its er first time just leave her, she will most likely not hold full term
-
i will let you know what i find, i am going to get some for my new tank Dan
-
the brown striped fish is most likely an aulonocara jacobfreibergi, the common name for all aulonocara species is "peacock". All fish from lake malawi are mouthbrooders so the jacobfreibergi could have held the eggs and maybe bred with the yellow male? Is there any jacobfreibergi males in the tank?
