6? :dunno: Thought your clowns were all females. Got my first fry from my clowns. Still looking for more killie species
-
Just thought I'd share a couple of pics. they are the alpha males off my last breeding. still very young Just love this ones colouring and tail shape
-
I'm having luck with mine both on Peat and in water had about 1/3rd on peat turn white the rest are developing nicely. Have only lost a few egg with water storing, I'm using a very lite dilution of meth blue in the water. and I've got the peat a bit wetter than i have with nothos I'm collecting about 20 eggs a day off 1 pair.
-
my male clown has really obvious red in his tail. hes alot larger than the females too. if they are all girls i probably could post you some eggs once i get a few more under my belt.
-
1 of the p82's isn't the flashest but all others are good. I ordered 2 pair of clowns and got1big male 2 big females and 2 little ones I think might be girls. I got mine 5 days ago
-
Yep off Rodney. Sounds like we're feeding ours the same apart from im giving mine daphnia instead of mozzies. I would have liked to have gotten some striatum but he only had males. I'd be keen to get get some eggs off you if your keen on selling/sending.
-
Looking really good they've grown really fast what have you been feeding them on? i got some clowns last week they're laying nicely and so are the p82's and choc australes.

I wonder why that is? This isn't my first notho species over the years I've had Eggersi blue, Foershi, Palmqvisti and Rachovii. I've really only started keeping them again recently after a number of years away from them. Only recently built a fish room so i can try and get and breed as many killies species as i can find. I too used to spawn them on fine sand and sieve the eggs out before storing on peat.

thanks, i'm starting to get a large healthy population of these. shame there's no other Annuals around apart from N. Palmquvisti but only males are availible. :dunno: I wonder what happened to the N. korthausae that were around early to mid last year :dunno:
-
Just thought I'd share a pic of my latest hatching of N. Guentheri
-
so what's happened with this ? anything ? i'd rejoin think i was nzka261
-
Nice looking fish, congrats on the Trifisciata breeding, have any of the fry survived?
-
i could give you some N. Guentheri eggs if you like
-
I've heard that there may be some palmqvisti around. I got lots of Nothobranchius guentheri eggs in peat that need to be hatched out. Would really like to get some Rachovii and Eggersi again.
-
getting a wee bit cool for shipping eggs but might consider it
-
I got some N. Guentheri egg that really need to be hatched out if your still looking. I'm out in Wakefield :dnc1:
-
or does anyone have any old bags of peat stashed away anywhere that they no longer want
-
Who has what and what Nothobranchius species are around these days. Been a while since i last kept any and really want to get some again

CLOSE UP 85% in favour to Farm Native Birds
matt_man replied to dat1's topic in The Off Topic Fishroom
not as house pets, a fewsuch as kakariki and kea may be kept in aviaries so long as you have a permit from DOC -
the movie compared to the book is complete waste, they missed out so much of the story line and the end is completely wrong. Its an unholly hack of a very good book the producers of the movie should be shot :evil:

What happened to the Whites tree frogs ?
matt_man replied to snookie's topic in Reptiles and Amphibians
Mod = Warren: Coarse language removed. There were some Whites tree frogs that came into the country illegally last year. Maybe they are from that shippment and not from wild populations that died out many years ago. -
