Afrikan Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I have transcriptus, lovely fish but very highly aggressive... not with other fish, amongst themselves, you need a reasonable size tank and alot of rock work for transcriptus.. the other two may be here but haven't seen any around. Quartz chippings, I am not sure about... I have never used it, and don't know anyone who does, doesn't mean no one else out there doesn't tho? Substrate shouldn't have sharp edges etc either so you would need to make sure there isn't that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookie Posted February 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 May be a pair of Brichardi then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 :lol: Transcriptus can also be very sensitive to water changes, alot of Tangs are but the trans in general can be pretty sensitive, even more so than the Marlieri, I have the Marlieri also and they are so much easier overall.

snookie Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 are Brichardi substrate spawners ?? pehaps quartz isnt the best idea . but would look nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hiya They are a substrate spawner My pair that have young at the moment, stripped a whole heap of Aragonite out of the middle of a rocked area, later down the track... hello proud mum and dad with their little gang of fry.. amazing to watch them, and the pair are so good with one another, almost proud.
