October 2, 200719 yr comment_186323 Golden Black-Eyed Ancistrus Ancistrus sp. L144 Awesome pictures fishtv! Love the apistogramma shot. Report
October 2, 200719 yr Author comment_186359 Thanks all, Yea the cockatoo is gorgeous! I'm not breeding at the moment and this boy only has one female currently. He will be getting at least two more females soon. I would love to breed them as they are awesome fish! He is currently in a community tank with an effective loach and an angel so not much hope in their current situation! :lol: Report
October 3, 200719 yr comment_186507 Thank you, what do they sell for over there? Does everyone have or breed them as being ancistrus I assume there are plenty? They look awesome with the black eyes. Report
October 3, 200719 yr comment_186527 Thank you, what do they sell for over there? Does everyone have or breed them as being ancistrus I assume there are plenty? Yeah they're not as cheap as common bristlenose, but they breed the same way (although I've noticed in smaller numbers). I've got one batch of eggs under one of my males at the moment. I'd expect to pay around the 10-15$ mark for a young GBA, $80 for an adult. Although prices are dropping as more local breeders breed. Report
October 3, 200719 yr comment_186538 Thanx for that. How many babies do they have at a time, 20, 30, 40% less than normals? Do they grow as big as normal BN? Sorry for hijacking this post fishtv. Report
October 3, 200719 yr comment_186548 Very, very nice indeed The fish that is ready for bed...does he sleep on a water bed 8) Caper Report
October 4, 200719 yr Author comment_186611 Np Stereotaxic it's fine. They do look awesome I really like them and have two in the tank, too young for breeding yet but who knows? They are getting more and more common here and yes the price is reflecting that. :lol: Report

Completely take it back, had to move my GBA colony last night, there is at least 50 of them from a single spawn, blew my mind-hole. Report
