Stephanie Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 i think this thread has renewed my interest in fighters lol. it's all your fault josh =p It's always his fault! I never even really liked fighters until I met him. I was content with a nice VT floating around in my little tank. We counted finally the other night. 23 I think it was. Not including four current spawns. They're taking over, you have been warned. :roll: :lol: I wish we had a better selection here. I've seen heaps of pretty nice halfmoons around, but you look at the standards oversees and see that the fins are always bigger, always more perfect and amazing. Maybe one day.. I won't even start on the crowntails I keep drooling over on aquabid. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 I won't even start on the crowntails I keep drooling over on aquabid. :roll: That site is VERY dangerous. Lost several keyboard due to drool shorting out the circuits :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Look at the length of the fins on the female crowntails on that evil site I wish i'd never seen haha. I want! I hope my babies randomly decide to look like that. I will be the happiest fighter breeder ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 if you want good long fins on your females and males keep the water incredibly clean otherwise they will start to curl. If the males have good strong rays and the females are pure ct you should get decent length fins and tail rays on the females. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katrina.hughes Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Thats handy to know - thanks for that Adrienne. Its really hard to clean the bottom of the tank without squashing a few babies, is there any preferred/easy method of doing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted November 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 squashing a few babies :oops: this is my problem too. I too would love to hear how to avoid this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 I wouldn't worry about cleaning the tank if the frys are too tiny. Just changing half the water and replacing with same temp fresh water daily or at least every second day will get the frys growing very fast. You will also have to feed them live food at least 4 times a day in order to grow them fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katrina.hughes Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Awesome - yea because when I did my research on the net it said that by 6 weeks you should start to separate them into males and females.... mine are about 8 weeks old and still can't tell the difference yet! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 If you're feeding heaps and doing a lot of wc, the fish should be quite big at 8 weeks. Too many fish in a tank will slow the growth too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katrina.hughes Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Hmmm.... didn't feed as much as I probably should have in the first 1 week of feeding (was in short supply of BBS) - feeding as much as they can eat now though. Will attach a pic of them tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrienne Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 What happened to the lot I gave you? well... you see... I'm not very good at reseeding new cultures and it died off. The trouble is that I don't use it that much at all then when I think it would be good to have some on hand... :oops: Josh you are welcome to come visit any time.

zarabenfell Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 I have a dragon (see profile pic...) which I am breeding from. Will be keeping a close eye on his offspring . Hi. I was wondering if you are still breeding? if so do you have any for sale? I have been awake for days searching for a siamese fighting fish like yours in NZ and I've all but given up &c:ry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos0wnage Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 What are you willing to pay for a fish like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
