danval Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 All good. I got mine from Goldfish bowl Hamilton but hollywoods did say that they would have some females in. Ask your LFS if they can get one in for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danval Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Thanks Joe How are things progressing with the green neons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I've ordered the tanks from Petworld :thup: 2x 50x45x40cm with 6mm glass, beveled and polished edges, and internal bases. And I will get some other stuff when I'm in Christchurch - heaters, test kits, sponge, filters, buckets/filter wool for a peat filter and lots of other stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Lost the first spawn then she spawned in my main tank :-? I can see all of about 5-6 wrigglers which should be free swimming tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Oooooh exciting :happy2: Hopefully you will be able to raise them :thup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Yeah, it is Joe. So glad I have a fertile pair I had to take drastic action and remove all the fish bar the female into another tank. Still a few small tri's I havn't been able to catch. :tears: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Oh my goodness Dan these are looking fantastic!!! !drool: Brilliant work :happy1: I'd love a pair but I really should have a seperate tank for them. Hopefully, if I manage to succeed with the neons, I can then move on to the tri's and these guys. I have three tanks now so I will be able to remove parents if necessary, and there won't be other fish in the same tank as the breeding fish and fry I saw some at Organism. John had both males and females and I was extremely tempted, but I didn't have enough money for them on top of the hundreds of dollars worth of equipment I was buying. And like I said I currently don't have enough space. Both the new tanks are going to be used for neons. Damn, don't you just hate it when you see awesome fish that you want to buy, but you know that you don't have any room or money for them? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 She has eggs again Joe so hopefully plenty to go around in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Just 4 fry from this batch :lol: :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godly3vil Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Still not bad considering it's their first spawn you have gotten from them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 This is the 2nd. Ended up with 5 from the first. Maybe get 3 from the 3rd.. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godly3vil Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Oh lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Another four fry!! That's still good :bounce: I am unable to breed the neons at the moment because I still need breeding traps and a peat filter, so in the mean time I'm going to have a good go at breeding the trifasciata I'll also have brine shrimp this time round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danval Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 First the blue Rams now mrs Super Red! Hoping for a decent lot of fry this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
