albinomike Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 i am thinking of getting 1 male and 2 female albino gardneri and put them in a 40 litre tank. Would they breed for me in that and hows the best way to breed them. Can any 1 tell me where to get albino gardneri :bounce: :happy1: :happy2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oeminx Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Well I'm not sure on albinos but I could do a trio or to of Aphyosemion Bitaeniatum or Aphyosemion australe. Yes they will breed in a 40lt tank its what I used. Breeding them is fairly simple, they will lay around 5-10 eggs a day, except on weekends :lol: . They will lay in javamoss, plant roots or a mop made of wool. then you just have to remove the eggs and place in a small container of water. once the eggs hatch in 10-14 days feed them micro worms or BBS and your away. Don't think I missed anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Join the NZKA. They swap eggs and fish with other killie members. Wok or Barrie can help you there or go to the clubs page for contact details etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I think Barrie had albino gardneri at one point, he may still have a few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
